400 for a little while (good for a dyno pull)...don't push it too long (like on the track) as the intake temps will spike and then detonation will soon follow.

I'm gonnna call ya on that one (I'll use xylene too), and double down if I may. Since Carnage King is so confident, I think I'll take him in that car with me around Limerock and see what we can hit that 400 mark - "dyno butt" testing. Providing he doesn't jump out the window at the end of the front straight!

Rob, if there is one thing you need to learn about me. I'm the most calm when in the car, especially if it's got a bit of slip angle or hard acceleration. Short of Armco or a Roll I garuntee you cant scare me

Either or

I'm of course, more comfortable behind the wheel but love going for rides in other's cars too. When it comes down to it, even though I hate on some cars, I'm really a gear-head at heart.

Good, then both you and ST are perfect for being excellent wrenches for the cars! J/K Anyway, I just don't want to see you on the track and have your face look like this.

Hahahaha, bring it on. The only time I did one of those () was sliding down an embankment through 100ft of trees after hitting two deer.

Dude, don't you dare steal my styling avatars! Get your own, dammit!



Anyway, back to the program. I still think the car can run over 400, and not just for a dyno run too. But then again, I'm not the engineer like Mr. White. But I am more than willing to be the test driver at Limerock or the Glen with the car and push it to the limits!

Juan, Get a base dyno run and send me the results, I'll direct you from there. Hold off on the cam till I see your chart. I have a cam for you.
Since you have the SMT6, why not run water injection? You get to run higher boost on pump gas.

Jeff, yes I do have a water injection system. With the SMT6 it'll operate as the top of the line $900 systems on the market. I'm not sure if I want it to be a product we sell, or just let Vitesse customers know the "How to" of the system and let them put a kit on their own.

reno88, Yes I do offer Vitesse own cams, however I cannot keep them in stock yet.

John, I have a water injection but not mounted.
I just bought it. I don't know what brand or style it is.
Can I control anyone with the SMT6?
BTW I will like to have 400WHP on the street all the time.
not a dyno run.

Juan, I am not familiar with every water injection system on the market, and surely not the unknown-brand kit you purchased. The answer is no, the SMT6 cannot control every kit out there.
At the moment, the only system I am involved in the one I'm working on personally. When it's ready I'll make it available.
