ACT got back to me. They're sending info on it this week.

Also vote for your favorite race livery competition on our site. Winner gets a new GoPro HD Camera. http://www.rallyxd.com/rallyxd/2011/...inning-livery/

any word on the quafe lsd for automatics? and how bout the turbo kit? and in ur turbo kit Rally do u guys have a blow-off valve or a recirculating valve?

What's your next move Rally XD?

I asked the main distributor of Quaife here in the states about automatics and unfortunately they have no idea. Getting specs on our turbo kit for you.

ACT sent our engineers the info and specs. We'll be posting up the info on the team site as soon we get the info.

ACT Clutch for Scion xD
 

ACT Clutch info for our xD, finally. The entire press release is on the team site now: www.rallyxd.com

Sorry for the delay, they were real slow on getting back to us.

so is that how much it would be if we wanted to run the same set up?

Awesome so these are the clutches that will fit the xD

Yes those are the ones that ACT have that will work. The costs...i believe are MSRP but you should check with your local dealer/shop just in case.

does the clutch upgrade improve for us with light mods? always thought it was to handle cars with more torque.

Btw did ever gotten a weight comparison from the oem hood/hatch with the c.f ones?

Another question the metal cover under your car did you ever felt a difference before and after you had that installed? Aerodynamic wise?

Another question (srry for the harassment lol) which lsd worked for you the best? Nd what's the part numbers? Lol

wants a hatch wing

Questions
 

- We never really measured the difference. the reality, the savings was small but give that we really needed all the help we could get, we had to do it.
- the metal cover/skid plate under the car really weighed us down but is critical to rally racing. we could've gone a lot faster but probably wouldn't have been able to finish.
- the KAAZ LSD worked best for us. Its a "true" lsd and gave the driver better feel and response. Let me get the part number for you.

Ok thanks! Ii was thinking of jst swaping motors but you guys motivate me to give it all with the limited parts we have .. I'm hoping soon to go weight reduction nd a few more performance mods. Thanks!

NEFR: Maine
 

Looks like we'll be heading out to Maine for the last race of the Rally America series. Anyone out in that area by chance?

I'm on the way i suppose

New rebuilt engine with upgraded rods and pistons and a new set of GReddy turbo internals. New dyno session this weekend.

Cool, what do you mean rods?

Connecting rods between the piston and crankshaft.

it will rumble on idle :)

Kinda figured, but wasn't sure. I know it wasn't push rods!

Congrats to the team on their 2nd place finish in Maine this past weekend. From watching some of the videos, the course looked rough.

i see on your blog you guys use 5w-30 synthetic motul oil. is there any benefit using that grade as oppose to the recomended graded? can i use it on a stock motor or should i just stick to 5w-20 synthetic?

The fluids that we are using right now is what our engineers with motul recommend now that we are running a turbo system on the xD. If your engine is still relatively stock, using the recommended is always a safe bet. A key factor is always your environment, depending on where you live and the weather conditions can also influence what you should use.

Are you guys going to do the rally thing next year?

The Rally America season is done for now but we are considering doing some Canadian events. As for next year, we are looking to do a combination of Rally American and Rally Cross events. What do you think?

I think that's a tall cup of awesome sauce! How was your new setup doing for you? New pistons probably more boost!?

The new set-up allowed us to increase the horsepower to 200 to the wheels. We were not able to push it as much as we wanted to so we believe that there is a lot more potential for us to increase power. We kept the boost still relatively conservative..i think we were at 7-8 lbs of boost.

Awesome news! So the weak link was the hollow pistons?

Weak Link
 

We experienced a small leak in our down pipe. The heat leaking out really didn't help since our ecu and clutch cables were melted together. We're happy we even crossed the finish line.

Just read your article in Dsport, and it was awesome as well as insightful. So you guys were running 6.5 psi with TC injectors and bosch fuel pump on 91 octane making 165.1hp and 183.4 torque. Man that car is a torque monster! Also saw your dyno chart and saw the noticeable bump of power from the dual VVT-I was a little more subtle. Keep up the great works guys.

We're pushing 200hp now but we haven't really "fine tuned" the engine yet but the power definitely helped us in New England.

Turbo for your xD
 

Just curious....how many serious buyers would want a turbo set-up for their xD? If there are more than 5...i think GReddy is considering making an off the shelf set-up. Please reply. Of course price is always a factor but like any other turbo upgrade, the costs will be similar. is there an ideal price range?

That would be really cool. I guess the price would depend on the power output. I'm guessing their 6.5psi setup would be around 4k? Also, this timing stings a little. Just spent 1k for exhaust that will not work for turbo setups.

I'm in. But of course it will take me a lil while to save up the coin.

Is say keep it around 3k...Turbo set ups for the tC and the xB2 can be purchased for right around that price...It would have to plug and play...

when the turbo kit came out for the rally xd originally you guys were running 4 psi. that allowed for use of stock internals without worry about damage. for that ide take a 5 psi kit and im saying for everything 3k sounds good. no more than 4k. and what would the kit include?

im down , gotta start savin those pennies

Thanks for the feedback. Will be meeting with them in the coming weeks to discuss this. If there is any additional interest or buyers, please let me know.

interested yes. Can I throwdown money for a promise to buy/groupbuy unfortunately not. It would probably be a year or two.

If it works with stock internals or has every needed and plug and play pretuned stand alone or something I would say $4k tops unless coming with major internals then a little more obviously.

If it needs to be tuned at all I would say stay around $3k mark.
