Turbo mag also puts crank (hp) numbers in their articles.

WA2GOOD. The reason Philthy keeps calling you out, is becuase we know NOTHING has changed since you started your own business. The truth will come out in due time, buddy.

I find it odd that you are sporting a DynaPack dyno sheet after all the ranting you did about it not being admisable, and insisting on a DynoJet chart from us.
Why is your TQ curve beginning at 5700 rpms on your cars then MR RA??Must be those Nismo bearings,studs,and mains huh?

I raced Phils car in its old state of tune, and can tell you he trapped into the 120's and was making at least 550DJ HP, he just cant drive very well Sorry Phil...
The only thing to come out of VRT/RA in a magazine was the Yellow Bumble bee car in D-sport, that was built out of stolen parts from VRT's customers..
And to the OP, those ugly civig chrome wheels you speak of, cost more than a 10 second Civic..

Don't know why Turbo went with a HP instead or WHP number, I've had over 12 cars featured in magazines over the years and the only thing you can do is provide the info and wait to read what they write - I'm sure Turbo did a great job with the feature...

Here's my 'break in' tune dyno chart at 16psi. This was the 4th run the car ever made on the dyno and although it made more power it was kick back down - the initial break in tune was very conservative for obvious reasons, if you want to call ~580whp & 600whp conservative...

Oh, BTW VRT/RA Crew that's what a torque curve on a TT VQ motor should look like...



I ran a 12.3 at 120MHP ( you do the trap speed to HP calculation ) spinning down the track on street tires, boost was ~13 psi, aprx 460-480whp, was having a bit of a boost control issue, all better now..

The one thing that I'm not is a liar! I'm also not too proud or scared to track my car (win or lose) - it'll continue to see more 1/4 mile and roadcourses...
i think the car looks sick keep up the good work!
