Awesome! Nice curve - holds really well, especially considering stock head.

Nice to see you finally get the car sorted out

Next, improve your VE and you'll see some very nice improvements.

No... I'm pretty much done. A little tweaking here and there.
This is truly PLENTY of horsepower. At this weight. The car is scary at 18lbs. I doubt I'll be at 22lbs more than a few times this year. That may change as I get used to it. But damn. It's going to be fun again.

Thats a really nice power curve, looks like you pieced together a really nice set up.

I would love to see a chart with RPM and torque some time.

95ONE

That will happen in a couple of weeks.
I think the power curve is a little to the right. I went big on everything. Ithink the intake manifold and up pipe are really more suited for a 3 liter. 1 inch longer runner, slightly less volume, smaller Throttle body and charge pipe would have given me a couple hundred rpm earlier spool. - nonetheless. I'm pretty happy with the results.

I just want your numbers dammit.

You really got to be happy with those numbers. You put a lot of work and lot of thought into it and you got a great result. Now what are you predicting for the 1/4 mile run?

95ONE

As long as nothing breaks. The math says 134mph. but if I break 130mph on a crumby run, that's it. I'm kicked off for good. - or I attach a parachute / fire suit / sfi certs / scatter shields / drag racing license, etc. So it better count!

Nice chart man! Cant wait to see some videos.

porshhhh951

x2. hurry up with them already.

95ONE

Oh they're going to be here. I've got a Motorsports Hero video camera.

FIRST. - I haven't wanted to look at my car honestly. Its been too long a road. But on Tuesday, I'll be going to see her.
I have Leaky oil lines due to Summit 12AN lines. Don't buy them. they're crap. They leak out of the o-ring seals. So... the $120 in fittings are wasted. Now I have to pay another $175. Lesson for you guys. Don't Cheap out on these fittings. I did and paid (almost twice) the price.

A couple lines have to be tied down. I have to put a bracket on the Dash Gauge pod. -The dash is temporarily removed And I don't think I want it back in. may build one. But temp holder is required for now in order to drive. etc. etc.

In the end. I'm thinking I'll have some Video Saturday Morning.
There is just no where to drive this thing. No legal fun anyway. So I will try and make it to the track Friday night. - I just hate that they don't show times on the board.

blown 944

Way cool.

I am looking forward to the times

That has to be one hell of a ride with that curve.

Nice work! I'm glad it held together and I hope you enjoy driving it now. Can't wait to see the vids.

"410 rwhp @ 24 psi.....if you keep the timing where it needs to be!
I have always said that if the engine management is right you can use tissue paper for a head gasket. If it is wrong then it dosen;'t mater what you use... "

I never fail to amaze myself...

porschefig

Wow that some some HP/lb you have now!!!!
Very impressive and I'm glad you've finally got it up and running after more problems than anyone should have to go through with their car!

4 psi gave you 50 hp!! What do you think you'd have at 15 psi? I'm still trying to decide GT30R vs GT28R and I can only run 91 octane (daily driver all summer in Montana). Eventually, I want the hp/lb of my Dad's C5 ZO6...so looking for something like 385 at the crank (might have to have settle for less on the fuel available)
