Dyno Numbers - Who Cares?
Looks great! 
Now all you need to do is add a harness and a little padding to the roll bar, and then go flog it at the track!!

This thread is worthless with out TIME SLIPS!!
I just imagine him driving home right now.....he probably is having muscle cramps from smiling for the last 6 hours.
I wonder if he is going to have any kill stories........
I expect track vids in the next couple weeks......

I bet he tried racing the minivans just to see how fast he pulls from them.

He's not answering his calls... He must of hit the fly button and ended up in Cali somewhere...
He better figure out what all those "bat buttons" do pretty quick or he is going to get himself in trouble...

I just talked to him on the phone, he just arrived.
Ok. Guys. I know you were all waiting on the numbers and i got em for you.
But first a little bit of a background story.
Being the cheapass that i am I booked a flight on Skybus (www.skybus.com) Well They happened to go out of business at 10pm on Friday night, a mere few hours before we were set to leave. Check out the site. They are also not processing refunds. They basically said to call Credit card company and deny charges. So Dave and i Scrambled to find a flight and finally found one that wasnt 700 bucks. Skybus was 75 per seat, US Airways was 200 per seat. So i wasnt a happy camper but we got the flight so thigs were ok.
We Get to the airport on Saturday morning and i am "FLAGGED" for additional screening by the idiots. Something about having 2 flights in 2 airports at the same time. It wasnt my fault skybus went belly up. They patted me down, swabbed my shoes, bag, laptop among other things and finally sent me on my way, confident I was not gonig to blow up the plane.
So all in all it was an interesting night/day leading up to the actual flight, which was eventless except for some turbulance and made me feel like i was on a roller coaster.
We get to North Carolina and We are picked up by Fred, Josh's dad, and shuttled to PMP. I managed to say hello to his dog Morris before gonig to loo kat my car and "play" with Matts redfire turd. MAtt ive got a beautiful picture of me and your car
Anyway Dan at Pro-Dyno had the base tune to put some miles on the car done so well, the drivability was excellent, almsot better than stock. Especially considering most tuners wont touch or cant tune the 83# injectors
Car is very docile and well mannered on the street.
We get to the Dyno and hang aroudn for Dan to finish up the car before us which was a Terminator having some electrical and alternator issues. He made somewhere in the Mid 700's in terms of power i believe
Now to the numebrs you have all been waiting for. I averaged 18.75 Miles per gallon on the way home over the course of 650 miles. This was in 6th gear at 75-80mph turning aprox 2300-2500. It was raining a fair bit of the time so it was very difficult to play.
Ok. Dyno Results.
STREET:
93 Octace with a 3.75" pulley on a 2.6H KB and a 18% Overdrive:
616.68RWHP and 554.68 FT-LBS
14 PSI of Boost
Car made power until 6800 redline which we set, never leveling off
Peak torque was made at 4700rpm and held steady to about 5400. It dropped to about 500ft-lbs around 6500rpm
RACE: BOOST ONLY

703.18RWHP and 687.05 FT-LBS
20 PSI of Boost
Car made power until 6800 redline which we set, never leveling off
Peak torque was made at 4700rpm and held steady to about 5400. It dropped to about 600ft-lbs around 6000rpm and 550ft-lbs by 6700
Note: We started to blow past the clutch as it could not hold the power form this Boost only run through the rest below
Nitrous Tune Before spraying
