  1. I can't remember... are you using esmlink?

     

    *ecmlink aka DSMlink.

     

    Yup. Same one from the car I crashed in 06 too. :lolguy:

     

    How is that trans doing ?

     

    So far so good. We re-syncro'd the $50 holler from the shootout and- so far so good!

     

    I hope to be on track Sunday for the SlowMoEvent/rental- but I have to get more fuel in the car before I run it safely anywhere near this power level

  2. They tried this up north.

     

    It Failed.

     

    I think this only works if its part of/next to/in conjunction with a actual racing facility. Sure, everyone would love a man cave with a GT3 and a Z06, and your side piece waiting in the wings. But as this ends up being, its just a pipe dream.

     

     

    Hope it works out down south!

  3. Well, good things are happening.

     

    933AWHP and out of fuel. Boost is still mild at 43psi. This is a stingy dyno too- Last year 801whp on this Dyno was good fro 880whp on Carlyles AWD Dynojet, and 160mph trap speed.

     

     

    Current plan is to add an AEM 380 to the mix and see if we can sneak a little more out of her. Still have quite a but of stuff to address but we should be ready for the first local event Sunday!

     

    Everything in this build is used, Ebay, or zip tied besides the off the Shelf Weiscos. I didn't even take the oil pump off the block LOL. And yes, Im still rocking the fence post Drive shaft. The craziest part is, I am 200% sure it will make quite a bit more power if I can get more fuel. Crazy times we are in!

  4. Just wondering what Ohio events you'll be bringing this thing to? Coming down for Spring IFO? Street Car Takeover again?

     

    Always love following you and your mad scientist ways!

     

    Ha! Thanks.

     

    Spring IFO no- SCT hopefully yes. INFO D42 Yes. Shootout HELL YES! :p

     

    I'd love to get to a 1/2 mile event but scheduling may be tuff will my new position.

  5. If it's in specs, send it.

     

    You would have to remove and disassemble the oil pump and hit it with a feeler gauge to check that spec.

     

    My spec is to grab the gear and give er' a feel. Feels good, I'll run it all day. (My wrist is calibrated)

     

    Everything int he motor torqued in a similar fashion. Options are snug, tight, and real tight. ;)

  6. I can guarantee it's out of my price range for beater. There were 3 awd dsm's that ran that were less than 2k that sold here in columbus. They may have been ugly as sin, but work had been done to them.

     

    One of the fastest local true DD's street DSMs up here is the most clapped out POS I tuned last year. Legit 3 different color body panels on the car. Kid is a good wrench but missed on a lot of the little tricks- First time he brought it to me, it barely ran and I gave him a laundry list of things to change or fix. He ended up dumping the car for $1500. I have the new owner the same fix it list and he brought it back for calibration. I stopped at 620whp to keep the stock block alive. :lolguy:

     

    He actually brought it over last night. Rippin' on it EVERY DAY. He hung out int he garage for a few and then took it to a tity club a hour away after!

     

    Still feels like a 140 MPH car. Smells like an armpit.

  7. You're like the Burt Munro of the DSM world, JP. <3

     

    I dig it! Still yet to see the movie tho

     

    The Matt Happel of the DSM world

     

    He's legit not ready for me.

     

    If I showed up to one of his dyno days and lay'd down the DICK 15% of the internet that knows what "LS swap" means may implode.

     

    Whats the meaning of the 1,0,0,0 on the rods?

     

    Because 999HP just aint enough. ;)

  8. Im kicking myself passing on two dsms last year.

     

    DONT lol! Its all smoke in mirrors! The Rods are "used"- bolted into a motor to realize he got the wrong ones LOL. 156mm Long- I am using "LR" pistons and a standard 2.0L crank- all stuff I had laying around.

     

    can i sign up for your fan club?

     

    All are welcome. :)
