GooseTuned GT7XX Big Turbo Build Discussion

[Misfit_1122]

Getting ready to pull the trigger on this build, anyone out there running any of these CVF products:

CAI Intake
Hot/Cold Side Intercooler Piping
Chatted Downpipes
Boost Tubes

????? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.....

Also if anyone has a line on a formline manifold can you please hook a brotha up. My shop can't seem to source one and Full Race is saying backordered until may. Getting this fixed under warranty work but need to get this manifold sourced soon before I loose shop time.

Waitin on parts now should be going under the knife next weekend fingers crossed on parts delivery.

I would like to give a special thanks to @FenixAmmo for the days long conversations about big turbo builds and what parts were need and also giving me a great deal on his parts!

I would also like to give a special thanks to @GooseTuned for doing the same via email about my build and what to expect tuning wise. I can't wait to add 100 ish more hp ontop of my already healthy stg 2 truck. If anyone is on the fence to tune definitely hit up @GooseTuned and never look back. I have been using his products for over 100k miles now and they have been amazing and like many have already said just a great guy to work with providing top notch customer service.

@dillard09 What fuel are you running and where did you end up power wise?

I unfortunately am down here in southern AZ so 91ACN for me.... idk what the minimum E content is to run full E but max we see at our pumps is 65-75% (spring/summer) and it drops as low as 40% during the winter.

I'm in Texas so I run 93 most of the time. I have E85 down the street from me. We swapped over E85 to start datalogging it again and i either have a in tank fuel pump going out or my JMS BAP is not working correctly.
I haven't measured the E content before so couldn't tell you what it is.

@full-race geoff no worries, unfortunately I dont have time to wait as I need to take advatage of my downtime during surgery recovery to drop the truck off at the shop. Unfortunately my only other ride right now is a zx14r and thats not gonna happen after knee surgery so I had to go CRP. Still went with the FR PM Stg2 Turbos and your guys install/adapter kit. Getting pumped to to get this thing back from the shop!

 

[tomolesnevich]

when are the parts being installed?

 

[Misfit_1122]

@tomolesnevich all piping and CAI went on today. Not without headache though ended up ripping the cold side charge pipe lower elbow as it's slightly smaller than the upgraded CVF charge pipes. The part in the kit meant for that pipe was about 2 inches short and didn't fit with the coupler. Idk if their charge pipes are designed for the stock intercooler but it did cost me several hours of troubleshooting and McGeivering to find a solution until a new elbow gets here.

Hopefully no more surprises, truck will be getting dropped off this week as long as the coupler and manifold bolt kit show up by Friday. Hoping to have the truck back the following week to begin the tunnig process with Goose!

Part in picture doesn't reach a Titan V1 intercooler if anyone out there is looking at using these on that specific intercooler. You will need to reuse the long smaller elbow that came with the IC kit originally but will need some serious massaging to get it on to the bigger pipes.
