It's cool and all. It's prolly just hard to get excited when a heads and cam V8 makes the same power.

Great job.

Get the fuel problem fixed and let it rip again. How much does your car weigh?

Its pretty cool.



Just as a word of advice, to gain recognition and interest, you need a more consitant control group. Gaining 38rwhp on 1psi? Other dyno's sprayin nitrous on the intercooler, which just about everyone will agree is also sucked into the intake? I'm not doubting the potential, hell supras are 183ci and turning more than 1000hp. it just seems the majority of posts are some turbo sytem that's still half built.

again, not trying to rain on your parade, but you'll gain a lot more respect that way.

I think its pretty cool, get your fuel/ignition sorted out and see if you can push 16-17PSI, then you should see some decent numbers. After that, throw in some race gas or an alcohol injection unit and run 20+. Just be aware of the limits of your short block

We didn't spray any nitrous on the intercooler at all. The reason why it gained so much with just 1psi is that we let the car cool down. We ran about 40pulls and the car was around 225 degrees so we let it cool down to around 180 for the next pull.

whats wrong with nitrous on the intercooler.

It was an actual nitrous kit installedd on my car and I could use it anywhere on teh road. Although I still say it didn't work very well at all. only a couple inches of the intercooler surface area were hit. If you knew about my turbo kit you would realize there is no way in hell that spray could have made it into my intake of the turbo.
