Need
Help?? Credits |
Well after 2 and some years of accumulating parts, changing my mind about what car to put it in, and then actually getting some work done, my Incon TT 5.0 is up and running. I was too lazy to update my web page, but I was bored today ;). Obviously this is not the Capri that I was going to build, but its an '89 ex-4cylinder car. It's got power windows/doors and a sunroof! The car is running, but the body still has not been addressed, and the suspension still needs to be fully upgraded. I guess I will show you the 'finished' product first, my best timeslip, my dyno graph, and then I'll go into some details. If you want more information about the turbo system, there are some usefull links at the bottom of the page. Make sure you check out the videos section, there are 2 short videos there so you can hear the turbos.... |

Notice
the timeslip!! A 12.165 at 125.57mph. AWESOME, because that was in Calgary
at over 4000 feet, just the way the car looks below, with REAL street
tires, through a C4 with stock converter, 3.27 gears, and on 92octane
pump gas!! Look at the 2.3 sec 60 foot... The MPH indicates serious potential. Above ....My little accident :( .... The hood flew open while I was racing a supercharged and intercooled LT1 Camaro. We yanked the hood off and I raced him anyway...had to show em who was boss ;~). Below is a dynograph of the car just the way I drove it off the street, and a pic of the 'new' hood after the accident. |

Incon Twin Turbo Kit Soooo,
what makes this turbo kit so great??
Emissions Legal The kit requires a small frame rail notch to accommodate the passenger side turbo, see Bob Cosby's install page for complete install details. You don't have to relocate your battery and your stock H-pipe bolts right up! |
To the left is the honing stand I made. The block was not overbored, since I wanted stock pistons. My good friend Rick did the hone work, and we ended up with about a .005" piston to wall clearance. After Rick honed it, I cleaned the block and took it home to assemble it. The pic on the right is the assembled short block. It is built fairly tight with .0022" main clearance, and .0017" rod bearing clearance. Thrust was right around .010" |
After that, it was just a bolt on affair....the complete motor is to the right....pretty cool huh? |

"Combo" |
Drivetrain Suspension |
I did get rid of the TFS cam, and after going through 4 c4's, I put in a Tremec. I have a hood now, it is a traditional cowl hood. I bought it used, so it needs a bit of work. The plans for the winter include a simple check of the motor, new adjustable wastegate actuators, and maybe some selective 'lightening'. It still need paint badly, so If budget allows, I will do that.
I have everything I need for the stereo install, and am just waiting for some warmer weather. The motor will be coming out of the car in the next few days. While its out, I will port the heads, change the cam, and reassemble it. I would like to see about 580rwhp in early spring, and 11's at about 130mph in the quarter, on REAL street rubber. I'll try and keep this page updated as things get done....
Some links for you....
