Samco Hoses



Stay tune for a big item. I hope its in good condition

Jtran just told me that the machine shop is backed up and it will be another 2-3 weeks before my block is complete. They have all the parts but are just waiting on the machine shop. They are suppose to get back to me on how much it'll cost for the 3 angle valve job and port n polish the intake/exhaust runners.
Yea its tranny fluid its waaaaayyyyy pass over due.

Default How Much Power Can The PL Kit make?

Some interesting reading here! At least for me it was. Makes me wonder how much power I'm actually going to make

Doesn't look very promising. Alex is going to be walking all over me. FU Alex

I was hoping for 520 minimum if I did all this BS. I guess I would need different turbo and some hotside modifications if I want more power................. I knew this but that was if I wanted more than the 540 mark

damn i was reading this tread yesterday and just finished reading it right now. I think something is wrong cause for him to do 460 on 13-14 psi doesnt sound right. I think with all the mods your doing plus tuning on race gas youll hit 500hp. Are u going to do a tune on race gas?

I was hoping to push over 500 easy on pump and meth. I didn't think I'd need to use race gas. Especially, since I was going to do cams, head n valve work, n possibly headers.

What would suck is that maybe I could make over 500 but how efficient is the turbo going to be. It might at it's limits just like Alex TN lit was n run super hot.

A custom kit like Alexs or twins is the way to go for more power

What would suck is if I do make over 500 n the kit is at it's limits n runs super hot n isn't efficient like Alexs TN.

I guess twin or a custome single lime Alexs is what you need to achieve those numbers. Let's see what happens

u really dont have to tune on race gas when running meth because meth raises your octane level to be on a race gas level not sure how much but ive seen posts say 104 or higher....

that sucks drock but i do think youll get close to 500 but remember its like Jonny told me a while back, does it really matter what the dyno read or that you feel the power and enjoy the car.... when i made the 454 i was upset but none the less the power felt good... as long as you can beat most cars on the street and get 11's at the track i think youll be happy

just think about the money your investing on other things that wont make to much of a difference.... i think thats a mistake i did somewhere along the line but hey you live you learn to teach others !!!!

Bla Bla Bla.....just like JT said............. why don't you kisssssmy..... If I see 550 I want it to feel like 5fn50. You came back with 454-474 and it felt slower than mine did. Not only did it feel slower it was slower....Mr 110 trap speed and 12.6 1/4 mile. Why was this, well maybe cause your turbo was max out........ you and I know it feels shitty when a turbo is max out and it falls flat after it peaks.... I want it to keep pulling like a freight train. Just like it did at 10-11 PSI. You might have liked the way it felt but that is probably because you had been driving a 100 hp lancer all this time. Hell, you thought your buddys stock truck felt fast.

Anyways, enough of the rant...... Its all good. What ever it makes it makes. I just want it to be a solid number that holds strong.

If I could hit a solid 520+ I'll be happy. That'll be ~100 than before. Not 60-80. 60-80 just doesn't seem worth it for all that money. I know I know Big Power doesn't come cheap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alex, you might win this battle, but you haven't won the war!!!!!!!!

DB, Alex is never gonna get no decals........ how much time has he had already. I'm just glad your taking the initiative and trying to get something out there. I'd say for us to make a decision on one of the ones you came up with.
