May be time for a pulley drop, 3inch piping, and potentially a race gas tune 😈

By 3 inch piping do you mean the vortech piping?
Is there any difference in diameter between your piping and the kits they sell for sci's, e.g. 2.5"?

It’s been quite some time and some changes have occurred. To keep this updated I’ll post it here aswell. To have real updates on the car it would be easiest to follow me on IG @ Jfrancoooo

anywho we switched up some pulleys and swapped to E85/ a cjm twin pump setup with 1700cc injectors and did something stupid.

We made 837whp/595wtq on a Mustang dyno at RZG motorsports with the man Ray Rowe behind the computer. A lot a lot of boost and a large chunk of timing thrown at her. This motor has been solid racing for over 3 years now so we decided to throw the kitchen sink at it for next months wannagofast half mile event in Ocala. I also fabricated a Air dam style bumper. This thing is moving so much air that we are at 93% duty cycle on E85 WITH a twin pump and 1700cc injectors 😅

Again best way to get updates is my IG as I don’t check this often but here’s some pics check the IG for videos 🤘🏽💪🏽

This is now the HIGHEST recorded/documented Supercharged VQ not just DE (including VHR) but that’s not a record we care much about.

We will be swinging for this half mile record in two weeks 🤘🏽🤘🏽

a lot of trial and error. I been messing w blowers for 6-7 years now trying different things. If the blowers will hold the boost it will make the power. These pulls were at almost 27psi

Nice! 27psi!!!! Guess I'll stick to the factory open deck instead of the other closed deck/ block guard options when building mine if yours held. Good stuff man.

I can relate (except that 27psi part)...but trying different things and different methods. If it doesnt work move on to the next idea. Dont be afraid to fail or move on from an idea.

Keep the good work going Colombo

i never planned to push this far. No where near it honestly. If I had I deff woulda went w a closed deck option and 625 studs probably. It’s been super good at 706whp for 3 1/2 years. We will see how long it holds above 800. Regardless it’s beena wild ride last few years on this block

Damn!

When i called Z1 to ask about the safe limits of the Rev Up pump Jon recommend staying between 7200-7400.

It's good to see that the pump can run a little higher if need be.
