Sam is doing some R&D on the car as we speak. We will have answers and dynos soon enough. We kind of ran into a wall on the dyno but im confident Sam can overcome this challenge.

Since we were able to break the 500 mark on the Turbonetics kit we were hoping to do the same thing on the APS ST kit. Spracked's car is a quite a bit different since it does not have the FCon or any headwork (heads are 100% stock not even a valve job) as well as stock cams.

We are expirimenting with a few things, but I am not so sure if we will be able to make 500whp on this specific build.

Once we are done we will make a new post on Spacked's car.

was he ahead of Don. i was sorta hoping to see his setup sooner.

I would expect the aps st will have no problem no problem reaching the 500+ specially if the engine will have headwork and also a standalone ems like the fcon

Did you guys ever get a chance to put a stiffer spring in the wastegate to see if it would flatten out the HP and TQ curves?

Awesome build. Carbon Fiber just kills that car though.

3rd video-5th gear pull. Takes approx 5-6 seconds to reach "redline" from start of pull.

Ive seen 600+whp Z's take 10+seconds to dyno, why such a big difference?
