I love skating the back end around infront of porsches and other spendy cars. lol.

That look on their face is fear that you'll scratch their car. ;)

It's a visible transformation from this :) to this :eek:

I've seen it clearly several times. And to be clear, I don't endanger other drivers/cars/peds.

So nice now. I also put on a magnaflow muffler and it's so nice. Good sound and quiet.

Nice work, recirc is great. I like how it connects a little ways down instead of right at the top. How's the car running these days? I haven't seen much of it lately.

No, it's been down for some upgrades. I guess I can tell a bit more, lol.

Awesome! Maybe making an appearance at the fall dyno day? :D I can't wait to see what this thing does now!

I'm receiving a lot of unwanted and unpaid time off, so funds for the dyno day might be tied up elsewhere.

Did running even with a stockish c5 z06 motivate you to slap on more parts? :)

Well, I had already gotten pretty bored with it. Didn't spin in 2nd unless it was cold, or there was cement, or it was wet out, or if I dropped the clutch, or if I was turning a corner. So, now it should do that. Here's the results from today, with a couple pictures to do the talking.

First:

Then adding a pound:

And as you can see there was a problem, which is shown below:

Also fuel pressure was dropping on that last pull, so the pump is probably done flowing. I had all kinds of little issues like this. The idle control was difficult to get right, and it's pretty nice, but has a little random surge, you should hear the camming though. Not like an evo, but pretty wicked for a quest. The blow off valve has an o-ring on the plunger that broke and was holding it open, so after ripping that out it leaked just a tiny bit, but the next run was more power and more awesome. Then my crappy welds broke and ended the fun, but nothing is mechanically wrong otherwise. Gaining about 15hp per psi, so by that math at 30psi I'd be around 510whp.

Given the clutch's rated capacity of about 545 torque, I'd be pushing it at 500+. Not only that, but the rods, transmission, u-joints, all that stuff. But with the out-of-steam pump, the 1000's that were at 92% and broken CAS drive, more than 450 isn't really in the cards. And holy crap. 450whp. I'm flabbergasted.
