In this episode of Adam LZ, the team embarks on a thrilling journey to transform a humble 325 sedan into a roaring beast boasting 550 horsepower. But that's not enough for these daredevils. With the help of a forged s54 engine and a new plug-and-play adapter for a Link ECU, they set their sights on a jaw-dropping 800 horsepower. However, challenges arise as they tackle the task of upgrading the fuel system to accommodate ethanol, opting for a dual pump setup with a clever solution due to limited space in the trunk.
As the team dives into fine-tuning the engine on the dyno, they face a myriad of obstacles, from adjusting camshafts to calibrating knock sensors. But their perseverance pays off as they push the boundaries, inching closer to their 800 horsepower goal. Amidst the adrenaline-fueled tuning sessions, discussions about potential paint upgrades add a touch of flair to the project. The team's dedication to achieving optimal performance is evident as they navigate boost issues and make crucial adjustments to maximize power output on ethanol fuel.
With the car's power soaring to 750 horsepower, the team is tantalizingly close to their target. Yet, as they push the limits, hints of a potential restriction loom, sparking speculations about the turbo or exhaust system. Despite the challenges, Adam LZ and his crew remain undeterred, fueled by their passion for speed and innovation. As they contemplate repainting the car and involve viewers in choosing a new color, the excitement and anticipation for what lies ahead in this high-octane adventure continue to build.
