I was hoping to see some 10 (or as some speculated 9) second Porsches.

bascially the way the old wrc cars were set up which its basically the samething now but fancyer is you add fuel and cut timing and then you get the loud bang with a burst of fire (i have a video to prove){still in the editing process} AKA misfiring system

Another dyno from today:
-pump gas still in tank
-2 bar boost
-cam timing retarded 7 degrees from 7/9 dyno
-about 20 degrees cooler
-Borla muffler IN PLACE TODAY- (7/9 run was no muffler)

Note how the torque increases 60-70 ft/lbs from cam adjustment.
Also - look at the ZT2 cut - you can see the end of the Bosch 044 pump here.

Based on this dyno, I have decided to use a Dynojet brand machine.
The land and sea is a load dyno and does not let the inertia of the roller cheat the hp up.
It is too tempting now based on the turbocharger I have (800 hp), the fuel pump (800 hp ) and you can see that obviously my Vitesse cylinder head has zero problem flowing the air (on today's sheet, it doesn't even change INCLINATION, for God's sake).
I will do the c16 on a dynojet - I would expect about 650 at the wheels - I don't mind telling ya......

Why not go full race fuel and bump up the boost a couple more psi? You'll surely hit 600 easy.

Actually - I will wait until the 944 fest - Dan is using a Dynojet there.
I will push it in Ohio - C16 and big boost.

Awesome. I'll be glad to meet you in person Jim. Care if I bring my laptop. I'd be willing to pay for your tunning services and perhaps you could teach me a thing or two about the smt6 and zt2.

Jim doesn't know anything about the SMT6 or the ZT2.

He has a professional do all of his tuning. . .

We always left it there for comparison.
Above 68 or so, the SAE is HIGHER, and the DIN is MUCH HIGHER!!
I have had DIN be 19 HP highyer on a dynojet at 400 RWHP level on a 90 degree day!!

Uncorrected from today will be crazy numbers, but I am not going to post that.

So who knows where I can get C16 close to the fest?
Or who can bring some to sell me?
