Just a little update it anybody was curious. The little P1SC made 584 whp at 6.5 psi/14 degrees/11.8 afr. Not bad IMO. I would have guessed 540-550 whp

 

Very nice.

 

Did you do the install?

 

Thanks and yes.

 

The underhood pic is from about 80% of the way through so there is a few things missing.

The heat rising off the headers is more of a concern but iat plummets the moment you start moving. I may make a shield for radiant heat in the future.

About 7 psi right now. GTs are decent up to 650 whp. Anymore than that and you are probably on borrowed time. 600 whp is a fairly safe limit, which can be achieved at very low boost with turbo setups.

Can't go wrong with a Procharged Kona. What rwhp numbers are typical with your setup?

 

550ish right now. 600 with headers and boss manifold.

The sound in the vid is not as good as I had hoped.

ok vid is fixed. Just a short clip

Warranty is up so I took the plunge and bought an intake and tune for my car. Power is great!

 

 

 

I like the V.

It has been pretty well known they were coming back. It's pretty hard to keep a secret racing program actually a secret. I'm always very happy to see increased manufacturer support.

Says the guy who drove a tC for years.:lolguy:

 

burrrnnn.

 

If you find a used 11 with a manual, chances are if it was going to have tranny issues, you would know by then. They seem to go bad within the first 10,000 miles. I have 60,000 on mine and it's fine... I did just put a clutch in it, but I beat the shit out of my car.

Just get an 11 v8. Anything else is for high school girls.

MSR is a great team. I've had some of the most fun working with our DP customers.

I like the back.

Both have relatively low cost of living. Both are gun friendly. SC is a little cheaper (gas for sure). I like the geography of nc better.

There's not much else to do in Hickory though. The mountains are only 1 1/2 hour from Charlotte.

SC is way more car friendly.

If I were to leave mooresville it would be to Davidson, also another nice area. But I love having lake norman in the backyard

 

The problem is once you leave mooresville/iredell county the property taxes are triple.

I lived in Mooresville for a year and a half. Been working there for 5. Great area. I bought a house in Salisbury about 25 mins away. Pretty much regret moving away from the lake everyday. Just south is Cornelius and still on the wake. Reminds me of Dublin, but taxes are very high. My parents also moved down a little later and live on lake Norman. They love it.

It's about time. I want NC to go to 75 mph.

I have been playing with the idea of making an either permanent mount or temporary mounted camera (with magnet or clip) that I could put on the rear of my truck when I back up to trailers.

 

Unless I'm doing it all wrong the only way I know is have someone with you anytime you need to hook up to a trailer or get in an out of your truck 30 times.

 

I know there are plenty of system that you can get aftermarket that have a separate screen or can even replace the rearview mirror and have a screen built in, but I don't want that. The only time I really need it is when I seldom hook up to a trailer.

 

I was hoping to maybe find a small camera I can hook up with my nexus or android phone (if I ever get one) via bluetooth, just so I can line up the ball and hitch.

 

any thoughts.

 

I have the go pro hero 3 and the android app has a live preview. It has a slight delay but would work.

I started a motorsports job site that regularly updates job postings.

Coverage has been pretty good so far.

Yes, Suspension, brakes, wheel and tires, exhaust. Nothing major.

Very nice. RRA is nice stuff. I am also in the left eye dominant camp. I shoot a regular RRA CAR-15 though.
