Topgun- I agree that your hp number doesn't mean the car is slow... but without a time slip proving the setup out performs others this is the response I would expect. I was in the same boat in that my 500whp setup out performed most other setups several hundred hp higher but I had a slip to prove it.

I don't know where this dyno chart everyone speks of is (not the joke one)?? Hey something is better than nothing. he probably can't drive so going to the track is kinda pointless.

took me over a year until my track times started not sucking... it didn't come naturally to me at all. Funny how bad of drivers some of us (like me) actually are.

My only contribution to this will be to ask what you are racing on the streets? You claim to have never been beaten on the street...... are you challenging Scions and civics? Kudo's for doing something new and different, I've been there twice so far with my builds, and I know people are always gonna hate, but to make claims like you did, and really not putting down all that impressive numbers for power and torque, you better be able to show solid proof your as quick as you THINK you are.

See I never said it out performs others. In fact I agreed that with just the turbo on it will probably be faster down the track.

I was just saying that it is not a "slow" car.

I didnt really want to list cars Ive ran. I have no way to prove that or what they had under the hood. The only one I could prove I posted a video of.

That S4 is fast. He doesnt lose to many guys either.

I will say that there was this 2010 or maybe 11 mustang and a guy pulled up to me stating he had 750 with a whipple. Then after I beat him he pulled up to me again and said he has 2 bad cylinders...lol.. So i have no idea what he had but i could hear his whipple screaming.

And no, everything else is in the vette, sti, range. And yes I know I dont drive it much. About 6,000 miles a year and most are to work and back where the setting for competition is bleak.

twin charged is a joke on this and almost every other platform aswell. for the money of that stillen kit you could have built a shortblock and for a little more sprayed some meth and had plenty of power down low. granted mine was stroked aswell but it was making mid 500 tq at 2300 rpm

Have you seen the twin charged lotus? I believe it had something like a 1.7 0-60. Fastest production ever if I remember. Used the mp60 and something like a gt30. Although on a 1.8l engine.

I didn't attempt this to break 1/4 mile slips. I was looking to build an extremely streetable ride. And around town it is just that...and fun as Hell. Mission accomplished. Afterall, fun is really what any of us are after anyway...right? Unless you just want to wave your time slip in peoples faces and stick out your tongue.

it can be done, and can be very very effective but just gotta do it right, on our platform that requires a built block.

two turbos both running 2.0 pressure ratio each end result is 45 psi from the big low pressure turbo and spools as fast as the big turbo with nitrous. i wouldnt even have thought about running dual 44 wastegates to overcome the lack of flow from the t3 turbine

I agree here. At the time I wanted to see if it would even work. Then I was going to build the engine when i had the funds. But since then I have decided to move on to the 370.

I wish the guy who this original poster's car was about decided to build his like he had planned also to see what it did.

And yet one of the pioneers on this platform and still in the top 1% of members here with the most forum, track, and street cred.
