Default DRAFT GS Forced Induction Registry

Attached below please find my first draft of the GS Forced Induction Registry in PDF format. I started to gather this information some time back and just never got around to completing it. With all the new GS FI projects on CL, I thought it may be useful to pick back up and create a living document for members to share.

This registry includes all 1st gen GS300, 2nd gen GS300, GS400 and GS430 with either turbo or supercharger setups.

I tried to capture screen name, model, RWHP, RWTQ, PSI, quarter mile info and general notes on setup. If you have suggestions for other stuff to gather let me know.

----------------------------------

Apologies in advance to those I missed....I'm sure I forgot more than one or two very much unintentionally . Please either post here or PM me with details and I'll add 'em.

If you don't have adobe reader to view the PDF you can download it free here.

Last updated on December 1, 2004. Note there are three pages of detail, so scroll down.

All you FI guys or those who have knowledge of other members who don't get on the forum often....let's get this registry up to date with correct information! Who did I miss or what info should I update?

Please either PM or reply here with further details on your setup (or if you know the 411 on somebody else's setup.

Great job! I did not realize that the GS was represented on the roads so well. I should have an update for you shortly as fine tuning with the Emanage software has brought more hidden ponies.

It was Ken.....he no longer owns the car, he did indeed sell it for a new E55 benz.

Rumor has it that Flash Gordon's car may be on the block in the near future as well......start saving your pennies fellas!!

Rick, scroll down to page two of the registry. I've got Ken captured there along with several other FI GSs that are RIP or MIA.

I'll absolutely do that as soon as I get 'the blanks' filled in in a little more idea . Of course that leaves filling in the blanks up to YOU . Well, not entirely, but in the end it's up to your checkbook .

I'm going to try to slip in a dyno tuesday or wednesday with the my new 2.87 pulley. Need to tune a bit more with the computer first and fine tune it at the dyno location.

VERY nice (not just the dyno) Jay! Thanks for the update info too!

Is the 489hp at the crank or wheel? What kind of TQ numbers? I assume wheel with all that stuff you listed but want to be sure

Edit - also what kind of boost are you pushing? and with or without Nitrous since I see you have a bottle too

Thanks D

"At The Wheel" horse power that is !!!

I'm not 100% sure with the boost, but it was closer to 1 bar !!

NOS bottle is for "show" purpose and to cool my intercooler down purpose. (hooked up to Intercooler, front mount type)

Thanks

Jay
