GT37R, bugeye
We finally got my Bugeye on the dyno, I don't usually post much about my cars because I have never felt a need too but a couple of people have suggested that it would be nice for the rest of the community to see what we have done with the car.
First a couple of pics then the build details. Keep in mind the car isn't totally done, we still need to tuck up all the lines, shorten a few of them etc.. Motor 2.5 liter Stock Crank Pauter Rods CP Pistons Total Seal Gapless Rings ACL Race Bearings Version 8 JDM Heads Ferrea Double Valve Springs Ferrea Titanium Retainers Ferrea 1mm Oversize Valves Batlground Custom Ground Cams Cometic Gaskets ARP Head Studs Magnus Intake Manifold AEM ECU Aeromotive Fuel Rails 1600cc injectors AEM injector driver Custom Fuel System by me Turbo Setup What is commonly referred to as a GT37R Turbo Trix Exhaust Manifold...Modified Tial 44mm Wastegate Batlground Custom Exhaust Batlground Custom Intercooler Transmission PPG 5 speed Straight Cut Syncro Box This car has been a long time in the making. Ill get Mike to post the low boost dyno charts on Monday. Apparently after reading some post by Ron at Axis it appears that I didn't torque the head studs correctly. So after the first heat cycle we popped a head gasket...just barely. So I'll be pulling the motor on Monday and replacing the head gaskets probally with something a little thinner. The car made 500whp at 18lbs spinning it to 7500rpms, we plan on spinning it to 8000rpms....but with didn't get a chance yet. It spools about the same as a GT35R with 1.06 backside. It doesn't look like 700whp is going to be a problem at all. I'll post more as we continue tuning. Big Thanks to the guys at Batlground Motorsports Engineering. Brandon the head Mechanic has put everything he has into this project, he is the only mechanic that has ever touched this car. Dan has been awesome and he will settle for nothing less than perfection in his tunes. Scott Siegel the new arrival at Batlground has been there for technical guidance and general Subaru knowledge. Mike who usually handles front office duties was there all night the other night helping us get the car done. I can't say enough good things about these guys...Also a big thanks to Andrew at Gearboxtech.com for hooking us up with a gearset to get this beast down the track. I'm open to questions if there is anything you want to know please ask. Matt

interesting turbo placement How's the magnus intake manifold workin for you?
can you also comment on your fuel system? What pump are you using? Stock fuel tank? Sumped? Surge tank? Feeder pump? size of lines used, etc. |

The turbo is there to cut down on Piping length. The first Magnus intake manifold we got had problems...but Marco sent us a new one pronto. They made it right and they did it quickly and they did it right. Great Customer Service. Matt |

beautiful braided lines........those cost you $$$$$$$$$
What's the block under the turbo? a tank to pool the oil and then it gets pumped out? What's the cars purpose? DD, Drags? Looks good. Props to you. |

Fuel System is fairly simple. The guys at Batlrgound took the stock hanger out and mounted two Walboro 255s, those feed dual 6 an lines that run to the front and y into 1 8 an line. The 8 an feeds the rails and the rails feed the pressure regulator. If we have any fuel delivery problems then we will go to a surge tank design. Matt |

I think im in the same boat as you in that im not a fan of the surge tank in my DD, but i am also trying to decide whether to do the walbro thing ot go with a Weldon inline fuelpump stuffed underneath the car. |

Are you running both pumps at 100% duty cycle at all times? Or are you running them off the stock fuel pump controller somehow?

love the turbo mini-sump!
