I got a chance to dyno my Summit last Friday. I got there with 390hp and eventually got up to 420hp.  Both numbers are decent, but it can do BETTER! 

 

 

 

I am still loosing fuel pressure above 7k rpm!  My next step is to get Aeromotive 340 pump. And see what happens…

Nice!!! Good numbers. What turbo are you running now?

[leon r]

FP Red with 7cm^2 housing.

WOW those are some great numbers!

Top work Leon!

[leon r]

Thanks, Deepsouth!

I finally installed the Momo seat:







I kept the original sliders so it made heavy (about the same weight as the factory seat). But I am doing this for handling racing, as stock seat has ZERO lateral support!

You cant drive it around like that. Have to get a butterfly seat cover or something to hide it

Hello kitty like the ones in your ute Jack ?

[leon r]

Well, I CAN drive it around like this, but it is certainly not ideal (for several reasons) .

The plan is to install this seat for handling races only (autox and oval track), the rest of the time (daily driving and drag racing) I will keep the stock seat. As you know, it is only held on with two bolts and two nuts

this is one insane suv man great work!

perhaps sorry to change topic in here, leon what gearbox are u running?

[White Knight]

I was wondering the same vphat....

[leon r]

I am using a stock gearbox that I got from a parts car with 175k miles. The condition of the gearbox suggested that it wasn't original. I have upgraded center diff to Shep Racing 4 spider gear type and I am using DSM viscous coupling (about 50% thicker than the original).

I am using ACT 2600 clutch with street disc and ACT flywheel.

[Hyper_Mike]

This is such and awesome car mate!

[White Knight]

I effing love this car. Well done mate, it rocks!!!!!

[leon r]

Thanks, guys! Racing this van has been pretty incretable experience!

Remember, we do not get a turbo version, so being any kind of fast is totally out of the realm of that Americans are used to seeing

And it is more than "pretty fast", it is destroying some of their favorite v8 cars!
