Yes got my frist paycheck of summer on friday. On the way I have a clutch, ves dump valve butterfly (I'm making the rest of it), o2 sensor, upper control arms, assorted silicone, clamps, and exhaust parts...Finally the car should be running good.

Also I did some logging and found that my maf is being maxed out at 17psi even with a 3" housing. Time to step up to a 3.5" housing and 550cc injectors. Also I have been planning out my tubular manifold, and I will post pics if I can figure out how to use cad! Just an update, she should be at the track shortly

 

damn, tom, your car is already pretty insane even with those leaks you had, can't wait to see it running well...let's see some track slips!

 

Yea she's getting there. A couple more weeks of long hrs like this and she will be done in no time. I also jsut saw a dyno of the ves adding 23.4whp on my exact set-up, and a while ago I saw adyno of a tubular manifold increase 19hp over a log manifold on an engine dyno..Things are looking promising

 

23 hp from a dumpvalve? god damn, with that and the manifold you should be able to smoke imola....[:-]

 

Ahahhaa I wouldnt go that far...I'm shooting for around 330-350whp, on pump gas which would make me the happiest person alive, but that nowhere near imola and realistcally, until I got with standalone, I will probably only make 300-310whp, which is no contest for imolas machine

 

tom, you NEED to get a supercharger for that beast....

 

ahahahha....{gears ticking in head} hmm twin charged, standalone...

 

tom what the hell do you do to get a check like that ... or do u get them monthly lol..... i love ur car soo much ......

 

Tom, I can help you with CAD...if you have any questions.

 

Ahh I will def be asking you some question. I have basically no experience with cad so I want to learn, and thought about trying a manifold to learn. Of course I'm sure I'll try easier things first. But yea I will def have questions for you. Thanks
