Thanks a lot Mikael for jumping back into the past and talking to us. haha.
Your GTR sounds KRAZY!!! No matter how much we throw at our little 951s there's no substitute for technology. I assume with all that extra power you've upgraded the stock suspension. I have been on the track with a few GTRs and they do behave in an odd way to the naked eye. They're incredibly fast but certainly need the electronic helping hand to get them around the track safely. The speed of shifting gears is worth a few seconds a lap also. Pity in a way that they don't use that engine in their GT1 cars.
Can I ask you about your experience with the Phuzion headgasket on your 951. I see that you had some initial issues but it seems that you kept using them. Did you feel that your head mods (venting) cured the hot pockets?

Yes! Dubble 3" connect to 3½" midpipe and catless. 2 small silencers at just before the 4 one 5" exhaust tips. Sounds is great, pretty quiet when cruising and like a motorcycle at WOT.

Yes my Phuzion works very well as long head and block is surfaced and you glue the gasket. I drill the gasket lose and glue with Loctite 3031 (I think...) between every layer and you also spray a lot at the block and also head.
I did modify cooling system and with another exp. tank up near the battery and some other piping, works great, no problems up to 650 hp and very cool temp even at a lot of WOTs. You see pics of this earlier in this thread.

How much boost were you running through it at the end? Did you ever get it on the track at sustained load periods? Wish there was more video of it.

22 psi dropping off to 20 with E85. Yes I did some minor track driving but then at 14.5-15 psi and about 500 hp with E85, no problem with temp.

Easy kill. Those Blacks aren't that quick. Certainly nowhere near Corleone's GTR.

very cool to see. Those cars are something else. I get to race one up here pretty regularly. Right now he has me beat by about a second but I hope to change that .
You have some great taste in cars and certainly are not afraid to push the envelope!!
