Another ESS thread.

I figured I'd post up my results with the ESS G3 because I see some people would like to see some more numbers. 10r80 car with 3.15 gears.

The kit arrived fast and was very easy to install and went together very well. Mods are the following.

ESS G3 blower on 120mm pulley exactly 10 psi at 7600 rpm.
Longtube headers with custom corsa catback.
ID1050x Injectors with boost a pump and Lawn racing rail mod.
Ford racing m50a ngk spark plugs.

I'm self tuned running 17 degrees on an approximate E30 blend simply because the 93 in my area isn't the best. My next upgrade will be to go full E85. I've found it still to be very knock limited on a blend.

The car is currently full weight and on 19 inch nitto drag radials, weighs 4100 pounds with driver. There is some tire spin with the 19s between the shifts you can see in the dragy. It ran a 5.69 60 to 130 in humid air posted below. I used a seperate DA calculator and it was showing the DA was closer to +1400, the dragy is often wrong with DA. In much better DA I'd expect a low 5 and with a full drag pack I'd expect it to run a high 4 second pass from all my past experience and tuning with data. Again that would be with the 120mm pulley and in good DA. On a 110mm pulley and full E85 I'd expect a low 4 second pass in good DA. As it sits now though it would be a great street car at this power level. Just wanted to give some times for people that may be interested in an ESS for their s650.

IDK what suspension mods you have, but if you are looking into some aftermarket parts, give me a shout. We have just about everything you could need to get the car running faster times with some upgrades.

That is really fast, wow.

I know you are going to 110, but I am insanely curious what the 120 pulley would do with nothing but a change to E85, especially since you are getting a knock retard still.

You mentioned 10psi at 7600. At what rpm is the car shifting?

That run was shifting at 7650. I'm going to try different setups over the winter, right now in Florida though the humidity is too high to run a decent time. My fuel system is pretty much at it's limits, I'm still on the stock fuel pump. Pressure is fine now but I have to leave ample room for when temps drop.

The car will pick up substantially in better DA. With a 120mm pulley on a drag pack in good DA meaning close to 0 or even better if negative it will drop into the 4s. Even in positive DA though now this can provide some good data for some people.

I know this info because I have over 500 logs and runs with centri blowers on coyotes. I've repeated these results dozens of times now. I can see where everything is projected to go.

Nice!!! Mine is at Brenspeed now getting a G3x installed with catless longtubes, 1050s, OPG and the ford racing plugs with a BAP as well and with Wengerd tuning it. Im gonna keep it on the 120 pulley and 93 for a while. Next steps will be a trans and a fuel system
