Sick! Should be a fun year for you.

Re: Progress since last year
 

I've been talking with Shep on a transmission selection right now. I'm hoping to have a good year with the car. How's your ride comin along?

Re: Progress since last year
 

Siiick!!

Re: Progress since last year
 

Transmissions are way too damn expensive, what one are you looking at getting? My car is pretty much the same as it was end of the year last year, minus a little weight.

What are you hoping to run with that beast?

Re: Progress since last year
 

He keeps telling me I should get a dog box. Those are a little to spendy for me. I'm hoping for a 9 second pass this year. I think it should be possible. I'll be upgrading the rear axles. I'm also looking for a nice set of sticky tires.

Re: Progress since last year
 

That a lot of money for a dog box. Ever think about going auto if you're going to spend that much?

How much power do you think you're going to make?

Good luck on the 9second pass! Hope you can get it this year.

Re: Progress since last year
 

Yeah, I have thought a lot about going auto, and eventually I might end up doing it. I'm going to get it to 800awhp and see what that will land me et wise. I'm thinking that should be a good power level to acheive my goal. Along with Some broken parts I'm sure lol.

Re: Progress since last year
 

800awhp? gad damn!

Re: Progress since last year
 

YESIR! :) I don't see anything holding me back from that number. Of course that will be on E98 ;) 650hp on e85 is were I'll stop on that stuff.

Re: Progress since last year
 

Fuck you need to come and play down here then.
That is awesome power I would like a ride when its done. Now everyone seems to think when I want to ride I just want to go fast and of course I want to, but I want to see how these things drive.
I went for a ride in Hill's car last year and he just wanted to do pulls and I just wanted to see how quiet and comfy it was, lol.

Hey maybe I will get to see your car during the day this year?

Re: Progress since last year
 

Yeah, I'll for sure give ya a ride!! What all do you want to experience? Yeah, during the day would be nice!!

Re: Progress since last year
 

I just want to see how it is to daily these things driving around like normal and maybe stepping into it on a street roll that isn't a set 40 or 70 roll.

Re: Progress since last year
 

Damn that thing is going to move out. 800 on just boost?

I wanna see it run!

Re: Progress since last year
 

Oh yeah, I can certainly give you a ride! When will ya be back??


Yeah, on just boost alone.

Re: Progress since last year
 

may 4th is my graduation date. You will have to stop by I'm sure I will end up having peopl over as usual.

Why the 650whp limit on E85?

Some DSMers just posted up 10.7 and 10.8 on 3 diff stock block cars running 6262 turbos @30psi

Re: Progress since last year
 

I will stop by for sure! Idk just worried I'll be over doing it for e85 above 650hp possibly. I mean I know my knock sensor will be a good safty feature but, I don't want to over do it. I guess we will see what I can get out of e85 hp wise before I add the e98 to it.

Re: Progress since last year
 

uhoh!! My fuel pump, exhaust head flange from sls, and T4 flage showed up today!! Time to put the exhaust manifold together!!! :)

Re: Progress since last year
 

That manifold going together little essay style?

Re: Progress since last year
 

He said he would build me a collector :) I'm going to do the rest of it. Top mount FTW!! ;)
