I blew one engine earlier this year when I left an RPM signal wire disconnected. The car was running on the idle cells ALWAYS - even at 25 psi, but not for too long.
Anyway, my fault, not the car's.

That's the only time.

Its on video, too......

Nice numbers! But what's realistically possible with boost and power using say, 93 octane gas, with this engine set up?

About 500 HP at the crank to keep it safe.

Okay - all bugs worked out. Ran stronger than it EVER has just now.
It was throwing me back (hard) into the seat in 5th from 100-150 - this at only 22-23 psi (low boost).

Last nght my Doctor buddy passed me down an onramp in his RS6 (we have tangled before) This time it was LITERALLY embarrasing - I left him really for dead - must have been 1/8 mile, and those things are quick.
Last time from 20 mph this tme from 60 or so - I don't know why he instigated from this speed.

Anyway - stay tuned for 600 plus wheel - should be a walk in the park if I can keep the head on (stock studs, stock widefire)

Use the MLS as a extra precaution.

Glad to hear the bugs are gone. But stock studs, you're a retard! When are you going back for this walk in the park, 2 or 3 weeks?

Yeah 2-3 weeks.
Gonna do a few thousand miles at 28psi first just to doublecheck, and get a little good-luck charm from TurboTim.....


Thanks Guns
