Get out the razor blade and the video camera, we need proof.

 

Drooling profusely to see it run.

 

I think thats seriously one of the cleanest COPs brackets I've seen on a BP to date. Please tell me it's not just a fancy cover?

 

No updates for a few days since? Come on man!

 

It's running!!!!

Being sent idle videos tomorrow, should be on the dyno in the next week or two.

 

 

so big. what numbers

 

None, they're just getting a base tune in it now.

 

yea but this thing has to be putting down like 200WHP at idle. excite.

 

probably only makes 50 ftlbs till 5500 when it starts to spool, then jump 500ft lbs in 500rpm. lol

interested in seeing it. this cars been in the build stages in the same amount of time I built my Miata, parted it out and have been out of a Miata for 5 years. :P

 

Don't worry guyths, any decade now they'll actually go past idle on the dyno.
Marking calendar for 2027

 

They most likely won't be making any power pulls before Christmas lol just VE tuning still on break in oil.

 

Yay!

 

UPDATE!!!!!!

Car's on dyno now, they're tuning still but so far revving to 7,000 RPM made 365 whp on a Mustang Dyno off the wastegate spring only roughly 16 pounds of boost with the power still rising. The tuner said 8,200-8,500 should be about where the power will drop off. He's estimating 375-ish whp off the wastegate, 550 whp with higher boost levels, the turbo is limiting factor.

Will post videos/dyno sheets once I get them.

 

NOICE!
finally

 

ROD KNOCK! Awesome, bearing clearances too tight.

NEVER ENDS, but it just made 375 whp @ 7,500 RPM off wastegate spring.

 

Sounds like 1.6 problems. When you decide to be a man and upgrade to a 1.8 engine. I have just the turbo and setup for you to use. Only lightly used to beat up super cars, and has a massive 4" exhaust.

 

WAT the FACK?

In4carnage pics, so so sorry man. :(

 

17 pounds of boost, only revved to 7,200 due to knock :(

 

ouch man, that's a bummer. looks like it was just waking up too
