LOL i know, silly me. I guess i should have thrown down another grand for downpipes so i could hit 800
Just run without the exhaust straight out of the downpipes an you will see another 30-50WHP. Alot of people dont realize that with the turbo set-up you dont need huge 3" downpipes to make power since the turbine outlets are only 2 3/8" anyways.By keeping the downpipes 2.5" for only 15"(since that is the length of them) and then bumping up to a nice 3" exhaust would beneficial since it will keep the velocity up coming out of the turbo.The typical rule of thumb on turbos cars is to gradually keep bumping up the exhaust as you go fuither back and the exhaust cools(and slows down).
Well we finished up today w/ 615whp on 16.5 psi on 93 octane on a very hot motor.
The good news is the car made 697whp on 21psi on a VERY conservative tune using Q16 race gas. JT said by this point the car was extremely hot from all the pulls. Tommorow we will finsih tunning the race gas and hope to maybe see 730whp!!!!
You should be able to hit 730 on a cool motor and if you dump right out of the downpipes, I gaurantee you wil see more!

Damn pipes keep blowing off at anything over 20.5psi lol . I NEEDZ T-BOLT CLAMPS
JT said he did a cold pull this morning At 21psi and that if the pipes hadn't of blown off it would have hit over 730whp. We are going to go for one more cold pull this evening at 20.5 psi and let her ripp!
