Turbo Tuning Phase 1 and 2
I got my 3.3 ltr turbo back from Lou Verdiales at Aero Dynamics near Daytona, Fl. (386-304-0380) last week. Phase one was a complete review of the car and repairs to all the issues he found, which were many. Phase two was a complete rebuild of the 915 transmission (yes,915..always on boost at the track and launches from corners!) and the addition of LSD.
WOW! what a difference. Not only in the performance, but in how the engine bay looks: everything tidy and in its place neatly tied down. No more bad hair day wiring for the Andial and WUR.
It now runs better at 1 bar than it did at 1.1-1.2 bar!
Don't know the HP, but it spun the first clutch rated at 425 ft/lbs torque, new clutch rated at 475 ft/lbs is holding good.
The transmission is smooth shifting and ready for the track. Should be good for another couple of years.
If you have issues with your 930, call Lou to get it figured out, he is the man.
See photo, if you see this car on the road, better be tcharged to keep up.
