Power/Torque:500 for a while, 600 before the cams. I don't remember torque.
Boost level: 12-20psi
Platform (HR/DE): DE
EMS Platform: UTEC, then OSIRIS, now Haltech.
Tuner: Me
Mileage on Built Motor: working on 31K. I installed the engine in April, 2008.
Engine Builder/Supplier: Forged Performance S1 short block.
Turbo Kit: APS, now APS extreme with ID2000 injectors and E85.
Driving Habits: Weekend car, goes through rear tires more frequently than I change the oil.
Rod/Piston Combo: Eagle/Arias HD.

Mine has been alright. Started as an APS standard kit on the stock block, then I put the built engine in. Then Osiris, then the APS extreme kit, then the Haltech and injectors. recently I installed a set of Kelford T-189-C (288* duration) cams and Super Tech valve springs. Runs good, I haven't turned it back up or gone back to the dyno because I bought a house and have another trip overseas coming up very shortly.

I wouldn't say I abuse the car, but I use it. It's ment to be fun right? If it pops I'll put an LSx in it with an 80mm turbo and be done.

I'll have a short thread posted up here in a minute...


It should be noted Blackbird's g35 had enough power to stop the rotation of the earth, and temporarily reverse it... It ran on darkmatter and orphan tears.

ill post my results as i go in "real time" lol.

Im at 501 miles on a brand new built block and single pt6266vbard .84ar.
cjm stage 0 fuel
Sportsman rods
HR gasket
Rev oil pump
Crower springs and retainers
stock cams
powerlab modified coated headers
CP piston
OEM bearings for precise clearances ( not a race car, so we built it reasonably tight)
mishi oil cooler
powerlab pan spacer and plenum spacer
3 in cut out at down pipe
rev y into 2 2.5 pipes
DW 850cc
CJM RFS
Osiris
Osiris GT MAF

Did 650 whp and ft lbs on q16 gas 27 lbs
does 527 on pump gas 91

Im in teh process of the first post break in oil change ( one was done after assembly.)

Im adding a Magnaflow 200 cell metallic spun cat past the cut out, perhaps a resonator as well.. also adding an intake on the turbo..

so im sure im going to be losing some HP from all of that.

Thsi beng said, i gun it here n there, but i cant imagie VEER driving it all out.. its petrifying lol.. never ahd a car like this before.. feels like you easily kill yourself and someone else in it.

So, i hope this will be a long life story.. but know it now that im also not beating the car up either.

500 miles and all is good so far. I say thats a decent sign for now.. if i can drive it 2000 mi a year w out huge break downs for even 2 years.. thats fine by me.
