Please no more Off Topic dynomometer comparisons in this thread. Getting way off topic and very pointless to the tremendous accomplishment at hand.

I wanna see how long it lasts driven how it should be at 22psi. Im not hating on anybody Im just saying, like they said anybody can make power on a dyno, I look forward to the street/track testing of this boost/power level as well and any issues if any they run into it, IMO that is where the true test lies-ahead of them. Great job guys, this is sick power.

Just the power alone at 4500 rpms....simply amazing, I think its time for those 11.5 in. custom rear wheels. Excellent work.

Now that's what I'm talkin' about... 850+ on a VQ - and still considered reliable and strong. So we're officially into 1000+ hp at the crank... Amazing work Sam.

correct me if I'm wrong but all this power is being made through the stock plenum + spacer? I would image changing the plenum at the level would dramtically increase the power no??

thanks every one for the all the kind words ,I left the car on the dyno last night ,I just want to go to bed ,so in morning I did some basic checks (while the car steel on the dyno) oil, coolant, oil cap. every thing looked relay good ,and in my mind I was wondering what is this car is going to sound like after all this hard runs .simply amazing ,car fired right up and sounded the exact same just like it had never been on a dyno before .no smoke no noise , perfect sounding engine .I was very pleased .

Its a stroked motor, meaning the pistons travel faster per rpm as compared to a stock 3.5 liter. It would cause alot of stress on the reciprocating parts to spin the engine that high. Plus, you wouldnt nessasarly be making more power or torque to go any faster.

Hey guys,

Last night was very interesting, The car simply sounds amazing! I went out and got a video camera and recorded the dyno runs for you guys plus some extra footage. As soon as I get a chance to edit and upload the video I will post it up!

Thanks again everyone and we really appreciate your support here at GT Motorsports!
