  1. Twin Billet 67's In all fairness it was closer to 15 than 14, I am just quoting the KPA on the log. You are running a dinosaur tech turbo through an Auto- it is what it is! Call Chad back if you want a pair of much more efficient options
  2. Your understanding of how a turbo works is incorrect. 1 bar with x turbo will not equal 1 bar with y turbo. It was already mentioned, but I will let you do your own research on that. The tune, turbo set up, and everything else I have done with the car was done intentionally to keep the torque as low as possible. Torque bends rods and breaks parts, not horsepower. This is exactly what I wanted. I can assure you the motor is bone freakin stock-never had the valve covers or oil pan off. There is no point in my falsifying this- as most in not all other in the stock motor group are adding ARP hardware and metal head gaskets. I have nothing to hide, but if you want to pay my time in labor I'd be happy to take it apart. Let me know, and I will send you my paypal info. I mentioned to Ryan that if we both make it to the end of the year, it would be great if we could do a back to back dyno session and just stay until one of us is over 900whp, or we both blow up LOL.
  3. E85 is not magic-the gas itself does not yield more power-just allows you to use it like race gas and offers lower combustion temps vs. pump gas. 317's would lower my compression and net me LESS power. It's not my fault Chad is offering a very efficient billet wheel's turbo. Call him and complain about it! :lolguy:
  4. Thanks Brotha! Its actually not far from where Ryan was with an single borg on his. When it traps 150mph, we will know its legit.
  5. No PM needed. 11k would take it home since I am not looking to sell it and time soon, but if someone had to have it.... If your in the market another really nice FC that's ready to race http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/cto/4824243595.html Thanks- and do it! I told Ryan we should have a dyno day together and stay until someone windows a block.
  6. Opinions on a Plate?? Funny quote people keep commenting on Or do I bring it back? And, what seems most appropriate so far
  7. Getting closer. Everything is for sale. You knock on my door and have enough cash, everything is negotiable.
  8. Thanks. If you asking about initial investment I traded for a 01 Civic with $1000 on top (I had about $1800 into the civic was t belt victim) and it came with an Ls1, hacked truck harness, T56, and many spare RX-7 parts. The car was a swap project abandon 7 years ago and sat ever since.
  9. For sure-and to you as well! Dates for 2015 established yet?
  10. I'd love to, but how is tech for a track rental down there? Up here, its anything goes. Last time I was at Trails for a rental they were enforcing the need for a cage/shute for 9 second cars. I'd hate to go down for a rental just to be told to go home.
  11. Yes, the promo code is STOP BEING A YUPPIE AND TAXI A DAMN TAXI
  12. Thanks. My car is your second cousin. Stock. The car came with 3 stock spare rear ends and axles. The are stock (have gone 8's in stock rear/suspension) but like all thinks, don't like drive line shock. I will likely exhaust these before I look to upgrade
  13. No, it wont. In fact, it will be about the same give or take 10whp
  14. And my pockets just keep getting fatter from it! I do enjoy maximizing the budget to almost unbelievable levels with my builds.
  15. Very cool. If your going down, may as well go down swinging!!
  16. Beat T56 Thanks again for providing such a great product at an affordable price! These turbos are killing the game! If the motor makes it through the season we will me making some dyno passes at 20+psi. Record Runs!
  17. I have a 6.0L in the garage I got for $100 as backup I will slowly set up with the "standard" studs/gasket/springs mod. LOL didn't see that coming!!! What is that going in? Still have the shop down there? Can you mod at the house? Your build is straight nasty! 540@8psi was on piss winter 93 (let me tell you, the fuel SMELLS like shit-not sure whats in it, but I can see why people blow shit up on it) 14-15psi was a pump/cam 2 mix. Its a safe pump tune, but not worth the risk with a 100% stock motor.
  18. Only vid on my phone http://s1003.photobucket.com/user/coltboostin/media/LsxRx7/VID_20141227_211531590.mp4.html?sort=3&o=0
  19. Its a 100% unopened timebomb from GM. I didn't even drop the pan for oil drains-I used the OEM level senor hole LOL Thanks. The dark side IS good!
  20. Wait until I lift the skirt and leter' eat He's get me from a dig being auto-from a roll would be interesting. I have a lot of room left on the Jam knob but I know I am on borrowed time every pull above 15psi that I do-the Ls1 rods (I think) are among the thinnest in the stock LSx family. Like shit-I did some test hits when it was 45 yesterday and it would blow the tires off in 5th once it got over 10psi. Yes, 120mph burnouts. This is on a cold road with 255 street tires and stiff coil overs though-I expect it to hook well with 275 DR's and if not i will bolt the drag pac on. F it.
