Day 2 driving it since its been done. I think it was me not knowing what to expect that was causing it to slip a little. Today I couldn't make it happen no matter how hard I tried.

This car has never seen winter or rain.. no issues there.

S197GT07.. give me a few, I'll hunt a couple up for you.

S197GT07.. scratch that, I'm an idiot. 500 is being obtained with a TVS and a stock block. 450 was about the max I saw with an M90.

Guess that answers my question though. I NEED (no scratch that, no one needs one.. I WANT) a TVS2300.







oh... my poor wife.

I have a M90 running 11 psi and 550 hp to the crank, id be close to 490-500 if im not mistaken? I know I cant really go any further with that setup from what people are saying...
but still, I enjoy it this way atm.

Well, the only way to find out what you're really making at the crank is to get to a dyno, but the dyno isn't and end all # so you need to get to a track

And the circle continues!

If you are at 550 crank, which I would like to know where that # came from, you're around ~450 to the tire with an auto, little more with a stick.

Stephen - what was the DA on the day you ran the 105 trap?
