Haha geez your a douche. But at any rate after fixing a few small issues with crankcase venting the car is up and running again after letting it sit for a week. Now that all if good I can get to the dyno again in the next few weeks turn the boost up and make my power. Btw again bri, how much did it cost you to never make your goal?

I'm a douche because I'm calling you out on making predictions and not living up to them?

Never make my goal? What exactly was my "goal" that I never made? (this all considering I still have my car and any goal I might have would still be attainable.) Nice straw man.

As for cost of my setup, probably close to yours since I put it together myself in my garage and run a UTEC (that I tune myself).

Keep fishing...and stay on topic....700whp on stock cams or you'll never hear the end of it...

Fishing, not really. Simply calling you for what I see. And as for me making 700 like I predicted that will happen soon enough. Again lets review the fact that im making over 600whp on only 18psi with pump gas. 25+ psi and race gas can achieve a lot of things. So how about shutting up and waiting a few weeks for me to get back on the dyno. You have yet to contribute anything useful to this thread.

So where's your 600rwhp dyno? Lets bench race some more....

I'm not the one who made the thread title that says "THE BUILD TO PROVE YOU CAN MAKE HIGH #s WITHOUT GOING BROKE". I have NOTHING to prove since I don't go around making dreamer threads like this.

I'm still waiting for the "prove" part. Not to mention, dyno numbers are one thing, making the car fast is another.

You want me to shut up and wait when you started this "prove" thread 6 months ago and have yet to produce anything except a mid 500s dyno number? (which others have done on the stock motor for much less money) What a joke.

I tried, and then he calls me a douche. I simply said I (with everyone else who is subscribed to this thread) was still waiting on the 700whp dyno....

I dont know how anybody can argue Brians point, he isnt hating, he has nothing to hate on. He has one of the fastest (note, not powerful) cars on these forums, which means he has 2 things most dyno racers never will. Driving skills and knowledge on how to lay down the power.

OP-for what its worth, guessing what you would do on a DJ is silly. Buuuuut, if you must, my car on that dyno (which used to be Sharifs) did 540whp on the old setup. That made 580whp on a DJ. Telling people you are already 600whp is false and misleading.

this gives me hope for my setup. 18g's, bc stage 2 cams and cosworth intake. Not looking for 700whp though...budget build.

I am still not convinced that the modified 18g to 20g turbos are worth it.

Again, I have nothing to prove, until you show up with a quicker timeslip, I know my car is quicker than your car. You also have no idea what I've spent on my setup, so again, stop with the bench racing and prove us all wrong....we're waiting.

I really don't see why everyone is flaming this guy so hard. He's put together a beastly machine here. With 20g's he should be able to get somewhere in the neighborhood of 700whp DJ. Even if he falls short I think the bashing has gone to far in this thread. Congrats to the OP on a killer homegrown setup.

I think you're missing the point. I don't have a problem with his setup, or that fact that he built it himself. I think it's great, and wish more people would do it. In fact, if he makes well over 600whp with the UTEC, I will be more inclined to possibly keep my UTEC if I decide to upgrade my turbo kit and fuel system in the future.

What I have a problem with is jtgli making a thread with this title way back in early December when he'd done absolutely nothing besides buy some parts. Maybe next time he'll wait until he's done before throwing up a thread begging people to stroke his ego.

Bri and Berto.... Jon can drive his car, I know this for fact.

I would be amazed if the car doesn't put down at least 600whp. I made 543whp DD and am over 600whp on a DJ and still had the slowest car at the airstrip FWIW. 700whp may be a hard test, but Jon is no quitter.

As far as time slips, Bri, I give you props for your time. Jon is more set up for highway rolls than the strip. Still hoping the 3 of us can meet up for some fun this summer Berto.

This OP and this thread is clown shoes. Not the setup - I give props to the setup and definitely respectable power for what it is - but I laugh at the pipe dreams that were this thread's intent, the fact that half a year has gone by and the guy still hasn't come anywhere close to his goal, and the fact that the OP is getting so riled up that he's spewing nonsensical crap about BriGuyMax "not achieving his goal" and other such drivel. What goal is it that BriGuyMax has "not achieved"? BriGuyMax has arguably put down more impressive track numbers with a limited setup in a full weight car than probably any other 350z owner on this forum.

This is what happens when people make prediction threads rather than results threads. They fall short of their lofty predictions and then look like dreamers for it. If if if, when when when. Make the numbers and then make the thread, not the other way around.
