My 83 NA with 13b swap prolly around 140-150hp when it runs(Damn weber)



My 84 GT-X Turbo prolly 250hp with stock turbo when running. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

Viperx7 09-16-2003 09:48 PM

Well we guesstimated(good word https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR ) that mine was over 300 hp, obviously before the turbo died. Haven't had a chance to get it on the dyno though. I'll have to wait until the new turbo to find out now.

coldy13 09-16-2003 10:09 PM

Hmmm, well my FB hasn't ran yet with the new turbo goodies, but it will be around 215-250rwhp https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

i just finished my 12a streetport and will take it to the track once i get bigger carb in a week or so, I will let you guys now what i did. I posted pics of car and engine in the new members chat under whats cracking.

Peace Miguel

spiney360 09-16-2003 11:10 PM

so for a stock port 12a i think i am set pretty well for hp????

AYB 10-05-2003 09:52 AM

What ever the Stock HP on an 82 is with 123k :-)

SA22C 10-05-2003 11:32 AM

Well, I've got a RB single outlet header/mini presilencer to the stock muffler canister, DLIDFIS for the ignition and no emissions, so I'm hoping for 10-12 hp over stock. When I get my Magnaflow and ditch the stock canister, maybe I'll get closer to the RB quote of 22% power increase at 7k.

kettlman nice motor i like the setup https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

spiney360 10-11-2003 02:14 AM

haha i know this is pathetic but when i first got my car it put 37rwhp down! i was like is that allot(back in the day) and stock is 105hp, so hmmm 70%powertrain loss?? but i come to find the carb was running off 2 of the 4 barrels, so that might have helped a little but i think it would have taken it to maybe 60-75rwhp at the least, well got the nology wires on and the 48mm carb and took it back to the school like a wile after and put it on, well the teacher looked at the car and was surprised, it was funny, i had my hood open when dynoing it and my carb kinda whistles when the rpms get up there and some kid looks under the hood and says "DOES THAT HAVE A TURBO" and was totaly clueless about what he was talking about it made me laugh

relisys190 10-11-2003 03:46 AM

I own an FC.. but guys i gotta hand it to ya. An FB + TURBO = cream in my pants.



I drove a turbo first gen once. Boose guage was reading 8psi. at the time i didnt know much about rotary's or turbo's ... man was that car FAST!. after that i bought my FC and have been slow ever since (n/a power yayyyyyy)



T2 on the way

"without the FB's us 2nd and 3rd gen guys wouldnt even be here..." CHEERS!

TyresmokinRx7 10-11-2003 08:58 AM

carb with a bridgeport is where the power is at!

spiney360 10-14-2003 11:32 PM

this is just a proposed setup or whant, but when i get my 12a rebuilt i am getting a bride port, done to accomadate the extra fuel my carb is putting into my stock block(carb came off a bp 12a from NY) then hopfully i can get the power i am seeking.

spiney360 10-19-2003 02:05 AM
