Video of my ST80 1.00 a/r rear mounted turbo spooling
« on: March 30, 2008, 12:08:13 AM »

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/ZombieSS-ST80-Rear-mounted-turbo_155761.htm

ForcedInductions.com ST80 with T4 1.00 a/r hotside.

While some will say that it's laggy, it works pretty well for my application so I'm happy.  The T76 I had on previous to it was hard to drive on the street due to it's spoolup being fast.  My setup is a 8.7:1 370 cube LS1 with stock 6.0 heads and valve springs.  Converter is a 9.5" vigilante made as tight as they can.  It only flashes to 2700 on the initial stab, then boost builds and I can make it stall to what ever I want.  I plan on 7psi launches.  Rear is a spooled 9" with 2.75 gears.  It could build faster on the transbrake if I went to a looser converter or added a 2-step.  I plan to add a 2-step in the future to aid spoolup on the transbrake for drag racing at the track.

I'm quite happy with how the car drives.  It has just enough lag to hookup on the street.  I thought I'd post this video so people could get an idea on how this turbo runs on my setup.

Yes I do, as well as several other housings and a whole turbo I can't rebuild because the turbine wheels is toast and they don't make them any more. I also have the ball bearing CHRA with on OK T76 compressor wheel.  PM me if you are interested, I'll let everything go cheap.

nice - just remeber the further past your stall speed you go on the t-brake the more you cook your trans fluid.....

Yeah, just changed it out a little while ago because it was starting to go.  I got at least 150 passes out of it and 4000 miles of street driving though.  I check it pretty regularly since I know I'm pretty hard on the car, I also have the biggest cooler I could fit.  I usually only stall to 6-7psi on the brake to launch at the track.  Definately needs some help to get going on the brake, I'm going to try a 2 step to help it along.  Converter only flashes to 2700 without boost.  A looser verter would help on the brake but would not be as nice on the street.

could you put up a video without music, or with the music very low?  Two Thumbs Up!
