Seems as though if it's not on the forum people don't believe it's true. So here's a perfect example of another built car by VTR that not only makes over 700 whp, but has been running strong for over 3 years with ZERO issues. 100% Daily driven capable, we never tell the customers to hold back. You have 700 ponies, use them!

Any questions, please feel free to ask

 

Miles boosted on 700rwhp?

 

way to many goons in one room

 

11,000+ hard driven miles.

 

Why do people have to crowd the dyno while it's in operation? Just not smart. Great car though.

 

Nice build - thanks for posting! I do have a few questions if you're willing to answer some or all...

What tires and power level for the street?

What changes were made to the stock JWT kit? Looks like twin independent intakes at least. Piping size increased? Different IC. At least the 2.5" post-IC charge pipe?

What does VTR do for 5AT Z/G cars since I believe the Hydra at least initially had an issue with them?

Thanks!

 

I think he said it was a standard JWT850bb kit. Good job guys. Car sounds great.

 

Thanks for positive comments, well to answer rc dash im running at or about 575-590ish on the street, with toyo R888's. The car does not hook obviously till mid rpm range in third, tires warm of course.

We did change over some of the jwt piping as it was restricting us on goal. I do still have some piping to change to obtain more power.

The vehicle made 769hp, however power was limited due to the undersized piping Vinny pointed to in the video. The car is still utilizing it's factory intake manifold, and factory throttle body.

Their are other secrets of the trade that I WILL NOT post on here, if you have any questions about it or the hydra ems you can call VTR yourself and speak to Vin,


I will love to answer any questions anyone has, however please be respectful and considerate. Thanks

 

i would hope it would last 11,000 miles lol i put over 12,000 miles a year in my z so atleast i know know i will last almost a year (so far)

 

I checked in 2007 on the hydra for the 5AT. Just checked the hydra website and forum. No updates since 2007

 

7 seconds in is not the case for me!

Compression?

How often do you run it at 700+whp? If you're anything like me, low boost smashes people, and not much need for high boost.

 

most people think more power provides the easier win, NOT TRUE, I don't need to tell you that more efficently used power can make a bigger power guy look small.

I perfer the car at 600ish, still all over the road, but when in fourth its eyes wide open

 

Congrats on 3 years and 11K+ miles boosted with that setup. Is that a Greddy intercooler on there?

 

thanks, and yes it is the greedy IC. I will may be changing over to a S max intercooler and bigger turbos this year

 

OP congats on your build... but how is 11K in 3 years a lot of miles

Another VTR VooDoo build too... must.. keep.. the secrets

 

Thats what i was thinking, im approaching that in less than 9months boosted

 

I thought it said DD but it's actually 'DD capable' kind of funny twist on words but it does make me smile to see big power not grenading after only a few thousand mi. Keep it up!

 

thanks, however I never stated that 11k was alot of miles, with me having roughly 3,600 miles of hard street driving, track events and a few other things we have had zero issues. Not saying something can't happen but I was asked how many miles on build, so I answered

Another thing we should understand is what difference does it make if the car had 20k miles on the build if the person driving it drives it like a *****, 70% percent of the people on this board don't do **** with their builds but look at them or parking lot pimp their cars, Like Brandon stated the car has "11k hard miles" My intentions were to keep the car as streetable as possible while making good power and I think I have obtained that goal. No meth no E85 no Nitrous,


As far as secrets, I guess you missed the part where I said call Vinny if you have any questions. It sounds like to me you want more information but are afraid to call him? Vinny can do whatever he feels like doing but If it were me I wouldn't release any information as to how I build my motors. Does Pepsi give out their ingredients so you can replicate their drink? NO, so why should he?

 

are you still on your stock block?

 

if my Z just sounded like that i would be happy. What cams? U have piks of the custom exhaust ? Sounds badas$

Also i got a feeling this thread is not gonna turn out good. Lots of jealous people/shops
