Very true...and when it does happen you'll probably end up needing a new block when you stick a rod through the side of the block and probably end up needing some head work done. I wish I would have built my engine first before ever going FI

 

Eaglegreen is already on the board for next weekend.

Joe and I talked a lot about the tune. He is well aware, that these engines cannot make unlimited power...even with a PERFECT tune. But he seems happy with everything, and since he only beats on the car a few times a week, my hope is that everything will take together. I also advised him to shift at 6200rpm or so....as interial loads are really what can tear these rods apart.

I always try to gauge each customer's expectations seperately, and meet their goals. Some customers are looking for max power, and I can meet those needs. Others are on a tighter budget, and want absolutely supereme safety..I can do that too.

 

+1 on wht Sharif said!

 

new pics?

 

hmm ill try to break that record on tuesday sharif. haha jk but cant wait to come up there and finally get my car done!

 

That dyno is with the 1.13 correction right? Otherwise your car is making over 515 on the stock motor..

 

Nope, as mentioned, and as I've posted in a bunch of otherthreads, we arent using any additional correction at all....we abandoned that practice as it created way too much confusion and controversy. Just standard atmospheric correction. He cars is probably making 500whp, give or take...on a DynoJet.

 

Damn...Thats alot of power on a stock motor..The owner has a set for sure..

 

I gotta nitpick. The wheels look like they need spacers and I love the bumper but those side skirts look...not so good. USDM < JDM nismo sideskirts. I mean that side view...it looks like they dont even fit....totally ruin the lines. I'm so sorry but I had to say it The INGS+ sides would look great with that bumper.

 

Of course that is all in your opinion

Which you could have also kept to yourself

 

Thanks for the feed back on the looks of the car... Everyone has their opinions, but then again everyone has an... Anyway...

I am going to be switching the wheels for Volk GT-S gunmetal at the end of the month. I only have a 10"wide wheel out back right now and need a 10.5" o fit the wider tires that I need with this new found power. I would like to see if I can fit 305s in the rear like Sharif did, guess I should only have to roll my fenders to get them to fit.

I am not going to push it any further on the power, and will probably add the water/meth kit for insurance, until the built engine is ready to go in this winter (unless my luck runs out early)...

So if anyone takes me down at Forged for the Stock Block record pump gas I will let them have it.

 

Screw being a dyno queen, go to the track and run some times...

 

you seem very ansty and miserable lately.... you ok? something you want to talk about?

 

Muhahaha, I am guessing Alberto is missing his Z a little lol. So on a unrelated note, how is the rebuild coming along Alberto?

 

Going to the track tomorrow, if it does not rain... We will see what I can do with the tires I have. 275/35/19 Bridgestone RE050As... Not the best for drag, just great on the street.

I would love to find a 17" wheel that will fit over these Wilwoods so I can get some ET Streets, but I have not had much luck...

 

Yes I miss my damn Z-missing out all this nice weather is killing me. Build is happening-thats all I'll say dont want to hijack the thread anymore.

To the OP-good luck tomorrow! Post results, 120+traps easy...

 

lol... as far as I've seen.. he got a tune this weekend and subsequent dyno... now he's a dyno queen? (I know you were kidding).

 

I know hes excited he got his car back as anybody would, he keeps saying he holds the record, stock block, and somebody should try to beat him etc etc. Thought I was on a Supra forum for a sec...Id love to see some dynojet #'s as he for sure has one very strong well tuned Z. I hope the OP didnt take offense to my dyno comment, I didnt intend it to insult.

 

None taken Alberto! When it comes right down to it, dyno numbers don't really mean that much, just fun to hype them up a little for the boards.

ETs, trap speeds, lap times, street races, etc is what matters at the end of the day!

 

Thats my kind of thinking
