2 E-bay T70 turbo's $399 each
2 E-bay 50mm wastegates $189 each
E-bay intercooler $320

mandrel bends for cold side and hot side and exhaust app $800

need a street car, but also want something that will be competitive in Mod Street Blown. was thinking Twin Turbo Modular/Coyote E-series, they look to have an *** end that could be setup to run a decent number.

MAD · 02-12-2011, 10:08 AM

There's a turbo I6 EL over on ************* that has run 9.1@150mph. Member name is Hiboost.
I'm not 100% on the suspension, but I think he's still running factory type setup.

futura · 02-12-2011, 10:16 AM

love your idea of a twin turbo coyote E-series falcon. I would be going for an EL Body. More Aerodynamic plus they look tougher..

**Sorted** · 02-12-2011, 10:28 AM

I didnt think Hiboost has stock suspension- oh wait - maybe he does - just had a quick look lol

Street and Strip right here lol

i'm confident on the engine, just not sure about the chassis

EF ECTIV · 02-12-2011, 08:32 PM

Rod Sammut (aka The Dentist) over here in WA, has run 8.728@158mph...
He has stock front (with koni 90/10 struts front) and rear (koni adjustable
shocks) springs plus a ladder bar rear end according to his Xtreme Fords
feature.... That was from a couple of years ago now might have run quicker.

That EL has been racing down at the plex over here for over a decade...
Makes 747rwhp through a glide on a low reading dyno..... Runs a
29x10x15in slick....

Also owns this one:

prasac · 03-12-2011, 07:04 AM

i knew of the Sammut car, i just wasn't sure what the suspension was in the back, thanks for that. with the rules of the class i want to race in i'm pretty limited to what i can do.

anyone have any idea on how light you could get an EF-EL?

mickyyyy · 03-12-2011, 08:53 AM

Hard to say as what are you going to gut out of the car???

Can't engineer a 6 point for the street so not sure how you going to get around it....

i'd get rid of the dash, air con etc. f/g bonnet, boot, guards. lightweight seats. would like around 3300lbs with driver.

you can still get a 6-point engineered, they just don't like doing them as the RTA tends to give them a bit of grief about it.

Pub247 · 03-12-2011, 11:35 AM

1500kg would be acheivable i think one problem with e series is they dont tend to squat comnpared to commodre equivilent or an irs setupyou can get them to launch half decent though

Thats must be seriously stripped out.. PSI POP car wieghed in at 1610kg on 2 different weighbridges that has had some weight removed another 350kg is a lot

trick_xd · 05-12-2011, 12:06 AM

Only has driver seat and sheet metal dash
Now running methanol and T88

Psi-Pop · 05-12-2011, 07:49 PM

That's impressive. I think i might need to put my car on further weight loss.

trick_xd · 07-12-2011, 12:06 PM

Perpex side windows
No sound deadner
Cut out door frames

Now a Fiberglass front end that weighs only 7kg

Pub247 · 07-12-2011, 06:27 PM

trick_xd · 07-12-2011, 11:10 PM

trick_xd · 07-12-2011, 11:12 PM

EF ECTIV · 09-12-2011, 02:29 AM

yeah the dentist is running 8s... like I said up the page...

EBW-302 · 09-12-2011, 04:59 PM

Those arent really *stock* though are they?

By stock, do you mean just what actually came in a car?

needfordspeed just ran a 10 with standard suspension :P

prasac · 10-12-2011, 02:47 PM

these are the chassis rules i need to follow

1. FRAME / CHASSIS / SUSPENSION

1.1 Front suspensions can be fabricated but must bolt into stock location, fabricated tube control arms and K members permitted, stock front cross members may be scalloped for sump clearance. In American bodied vehicles (originally LHD) substitution of local front end of similar design to standard is permitted, i.e. Holden HQ-WB front end in “55-57” Chevrolet.
1.2 Steering rack conversions permitted.

APSA would like to ensure that all front suspension components are built with safety as paramount in all cases.
ANDRA safety rules apply to all cars.

1.2 Firewall must remain in standard position. Notching for distributor or rocker cover clearance only is permitted. Flat firewalls are permitted but must be in standard location. Chassis rails in engine bays may be chambered to a cross section of 60mm x 60mm or an area equaling to this amount to allow exhaust clearance. All material removed from chassis rails must be replaced with the same thickness material or thicker. This may also be the case for cars needing to notch strut towers in engine bays for pipe clearance. Chassis rails must be in standard location.

1.3 Front struts may be replaced; aftermarket products must bolt up in the factory position.

1.4 Inner rear wheel tubs may be moved inwards, full tub replacement permitted. Chassis connectors are permitted.

1.5 Standard rear suspension points must be used, rear suspension mounts maybe reinforced or fabricated in standard size, shock absorber location can be moved, and leaf springs can be moved inwards.

1.6 Coil over shocks are permitted for tyre clearance.

1.7 Rear chassis rails may be notched for tyre clearance but not moved or rerouted. Inner chassis rail cannot be moved and must remain in factory position. Any metal cut away must be replaced with the same thickness material or thicker. Special permission may be given to existing cars with rails moved if standard points are retained and tyre is within the limits, but must be checked with APSA committee.

1.8 Four links and ladder bars are not permitted.

1.9 Adjustable tubular control arms may be used on rear ends but must retain factory fixed mounting points and suspension set up. Tramp rods, Slapper bars, Caltrac bars or any other similar devices may be used. Anti roll or sway bars permitted.

1.10 Fiberglass panels are restricted to guards, nose cone, bonnet, boot lids and bumpers.

1.11 Lexan /polycarbonate windows permitted all round as per ANDRA specifications.

1.12 Must have some style of dash, original dash board may be replaced by a fabricated dash.

trick_xd · 10-12-2011, 04:28 PM

And that's the same rules as I have built my EL to ....
But I have only done all the cheap stuff ATM ...
