Stimbert Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 31psi and not a single issue. More coming next weekend.. Turbos do work, just have to address each issue. I'm nobody important, but I have been thru a lot of headaches. My phones always on.. 248-240-0387 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=w3p1CHOboqg Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 Did you see problems on boost blowing through the seals or actually pushing them out? I was thinging of welding large aluminum retainers on the outside of the crankcase to ensure they cant push out.Gonna be hard with a primary gear right there. Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 On an old V max which has seals nearly identical to the banshee they would start to actually bow and gat shaped like this " ) " with minimal blow out from the seal edges them selves but above 20 psi they would physically begin working their way out of their little groove. I haven't done a banshee so my knowledge will probably get shot down by N20. But I've been around a handful of boosted toys. You are gonna need to address sealing the crank case, case surfaces. And the head. Typically the metal reinforced base gaskets will hold with a touch of copper RTV. Thought about sending the ones from that Vmax build down to tony at TDR to make out of copper. But so far the cometics held. It'll probably get a few more pounds this season and then go kaboom before I bother changing it though.This is basically the exact scenario the banshee has. Quote

Stimbert Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 Haven't had it down to a southern track since it's been running consistent. Just talked to dan last night and he was saying the fastest it ever went in mi was one mid .40s pass with a 120lb'er on it. I unloaded the chassis bad at the 60' mark in that video and that was a 3.50 w/ a 1.4x 60' @ 94 mph. Quote
Stimbert Posted August 22, 2014 Report Posted August 22, 2014 Call me crazy but IT WILL go low .40s next weekend, possibly high .30s Quote
J-Madd Posted August 23, 2014 Report Posted August 23, 2014 Needs to run 20s. Will run 40s or 30s on motor. Quote
BANSHEE HP Posted August 23, 2014 Report Posted August 23, 2014 If it runs a number it's cuz I had my hands on it today. Quote
Stimbert Posted August 23, 2014 Report Posted August 23, 2014 Needs to run 20s. Will run 40s or 30s on motor. Duh. Not in mi tho Quote
Stimbert Posted August 23, 2014 Report Posted August 23, 2014 And as a side note. I'm still on gas... Haven't even put it on alcohol yet.. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted August 23, 2014 Report Posted August 23, 2014 Alky + boost = mucho faster Quote
