Fastest Street Car On Style

[scheides]

I weighed my "boat" 3780 race weight w/me in it.
I'd like to get that down to 3600lbs by the end of season, 3700lbs if I keep the a/c.

Trimspa, baby! ;)

This is the longest thread I've ever seen about two mid eleven second cars bickering.

535.5awhp on 93 octane, 500ish at the track.



Dont want to be the only one to ask but lemme get this straight....

~500 AWHP at the track at 28psi
~535 AWHP on a dyno w/ pump gas at 22psi
~700 AWHP on a dyno w/ race gas at 32psi

So... how exactly does this work?

22 psi = 535
28 psi = 500
but 32 is the sweet spot (Well out of the range of the turbos) and it hits 700

Maybe you can clear this up for me :)

I have no insight on this particular case, but I usually dont claim my 1 time high hp # when im out on the street or at the track. I give a realistic guess based on the conditions and how the car feels. A high hp car with a finicky tune can certainly have quite a bit of swing when its not in its "perfect tuning environment."

[EvilEvo]

I agree with you there but there is still this part that doesnt work for me:

6 psi more boost from 22 loses 30+ HP but when raising the boost 4psi from 28 it gains over 200. I dont care how crappy the day or tune is... that doesnt happen :)

Over the years one thing has held true. When things don't go according to planned there is always excuses why. Some of them are legit and some are just bullshit.

[Shotgun!]

That 535 wasn't safe. It makes about 480awhp on pump at a safe tune. (And that's not so safe, IMHO)

The "500" on pump is a guess, shit was fucked up. The 703AWHP was a "best of" type run on the dyno, but it is a sound 690ish at 31psi.

[EvilEvo]

ok... he still said he was running 28 psi....

So at 28psi he makes ~480 but at 32 he makes ~700? I understand now :rolleyes:

[EvilEvo]

Oh the edit explained it better....

At 28 psi is around 480-500 and at 31 it is a solid 690. I should think about running 3 more psi if I can gain 200 ponies from it!

I guess I dont need to say anymore.. You guys explained it enough, lol.
