Is this a gen 5 blower? i am not familiar with these engines. From pictures i've seen on the net it is missing the threaded insert in the center of the gen 3 and the longer neck.

Looks like it already has a smaller pulley on there, like a 3.4??

Stock is a 3.8 for reference.

What is controlling the computer system on that car?? A factory PCM still??

Just curious because I hope it's already been tuned, otherwise it's likely suffering and could be at harm still. Always run 91+ octane.

[Stimpy]

its a venture ecu. It's been tuned no worries.

Caterham 7? Those things weigh nothing lol. i cant even imagine how much fun that thing is.

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

Saying no worries, always gives off worry for me.

Mainly because so many people have no idea how to tune a 3800 correctly. If you do plan to mod further, I'd just suggest not adding more boost. Not without a wideband handy and another tune. But adding more boost is more heat, so a methonal kit or intercooler would be the plan of attack to keep knock down.

it's a super stalker. 1500lbs, 290hp. goes pretty well.

Yes the plan was to add a full sized IC. it has 2 wb o2 sensors, one per bank.

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

Does it still have a regular o2 sensor still or just widebands with gauges in the dash.

[Stimpy]

it has both.

the wb are plumed into a HP tuners pro.

Id turbo the hell out of it and give it some sticky tires. Sounds dangerously fun

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

That's good.
