A magneto. They're neato.

After last night, I'd be a little scared of a fast RWD car. I broke the tires loose at almost 60 mph last night in the rain driving a supercharged Lightning. Not exactly a good feeling when you're in traffic, it'd be that much worse if you could do that easily on dry pavement. But you get used to anything I suppose.

He is just putting a basic Crane ignition box on it. They help on those cars.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

He was on 11psi that night ;)

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

I like you MAP guys and all, but why the constant dick wagging?

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

2 psi is like 60 whp!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

That's what happens when you have a "correct motor" instead of us "half-motor" guys. I appreciate all things fast, big, small, whatever it may be. I don't like the "tough crowd" that think their shit is fast. I had the fortunate run-in with a ford v8, dohc setup on a charger. dude was a tool. Luckily infront of his gf, I put him in his place. Sad when I think about it, cause I can honestly say my car is not fast at all right now. With the issues i've been working out, to still beat him really must have hurt. Anyway, to the point, I give respect to where it's deserved. Kyle ran a 9 on his talon..congrates. it's a fast car. Kenny's car is quite fast. and, he respects fast 4 cylinder cars too. I hope someday, i get to race kenny, and see how badly I get railed with 9 psi.

I think that in comparison to others in this area we are pretty tame when it comes to "dick wagging." This particular instance of public nudity was based upon the taunting that took place before said race. Had the passenger of this car (please note Kenny did not make any comments, and is a very nice guy) not told Kyle "you better make sure your nitrous is on" and "there is no replacement for displacement" we would have likely stuck to our normal modest behavior ;)

Haha, well then, all bets are off when shit talking is involved. :)

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Let me see your grill! Yup your grill? you wanna see my WHAT?!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Once again, my passenger didn't say anything...that was Fast Mark stirring the pot. I was right there and saw/heard it. Don't start saying stuff that isn't true now :)

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Cool, the owner is finally here.
Badass car, i hope to build something like that in the future, congrats and enjoy the ride, we all know perfectly well that you could turn that bitch up and have an insane car, i would say applause for having enough self control to leave it on "low power" levels and having fun with it.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

It makes 50whp per lb of boost.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Hopefully it does that for the next few psi when we go to turn up the boost.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Best of luck with the setup, nice car and welcome to the forums!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Wow, that's power.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

XXXXrwhp....You should throw up the new power dyno charts!!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Kenny probably has them. I don't think he will really run it on the street or track at the 18psi level, the car was already traction limited at 895whp. I think he is going to try to run it at the 13.5 psi level that he backed it down to until he can get tranny that will hold the power he is making on slicks without shattering on the launch.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Lol, these are problems I wish I had.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Here's the newest sheets from last night...like Shane said, I won't be running 18 psi on the street, I'm probably going to have to bring the boost back down to 11.5 psi after I try out the 13.5 psi...I'm sure it will be just stupid to watch at the track...no traction with my new DR's

Anyways, here ya go!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Wow! That is all.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

holy crapsicle!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

That's just nutty! Nice job!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Holy shit. I have to see this car.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Great fucking numbers. Car's gotta be a blast to drive. Good job!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Turbos are a miracle. Still 92 octane?

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

6 gallons of 110 in the tank and the rest was 92. So I think there is still plenty of room to max the turbos.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Insane...

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Badass man, congrats V8s rule.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Any pics of this car online? Awesome numbers... That is a crazy amount of power for a street car.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

There are a few pics here: http://bbs.hardcore50.com/vbulletin/...ad.php?t=37196 ...not everything I have but you'll get the idea.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

Oh my god... That thing is just nutty!

Re: No replacement for displacement?
 

wow!
