I bet you he'll have pictures and video's of the crappy slow (real) runs and then some weird wonky or photoshopped slip of the 11.8 run and be like "the camera died" or "the world flipped upside-down"

Honestly goes like a shower of **** and I'm happy with it, the proof is in circuit times and I almost wasn't going to post anything here cos no matter what I say or do I'm sure 18 will troll me.

I watched the first 2 runs filming the second one and the went to help a guy get his NB running cos he needed a hand and happened to be close to that track.

Maybe the 11.8 is a timing error by that's what the slip says.

He also went from 30 to 20 odd psi for the last 2 runs. In the tyres.

Threadsurrection !!

So it went out for its first road course event since testing.

There were some serious turbo machines there from some of the big mx5 tuning shops, one is a new 1.9L all out build with the states gun mx5 driver at this circuit and we still FTD'd by almost 3 seconds.

Absolutely walked all of the other turbo cars there for Hp and torque in the midrange, using a whole gear higher on the uphills to save a gearchange in a tricky bit and walked away from the big shops 1.8Ls with ease.

Im happy with it.

Cool.

I still don't see 2 things:
a valid dyno
a valid quarter mile slip

remember when Curly made 10% more power on a dyno that should have been 12% lower than his dynojet plot?

he hadnt done it before so the first couple were very poor, his first run he staged and then dropped the clutch at 2000rpm and spun 1st 2nd 3rd on the limiter etc etc etc.

The dyno I gave you was legit, and there is NOTHING suggesting otherwise, and as for the drag slip, I dont have it and either does the owner, so just deal with it.

Dann
NO WAY!!

did he mysteriously lose it? aww, that sucks. but its okay, we'll just take your word for it.

Good job. You achieved greatness. I mean its not you could just lie about it and say its fast or anything.

Nope. This looks legit

I believe the car is boosted and makes good power. I just don't actually believe the exact number until I can see it on a dynojet. it's pretty much as simple as that for me.

I believe their dyno as much as i believe they are running 9-10psi on stock injectors at a "decent" afr of 14.

Proved to myself what I wanted, begi beat it further. It could never ever be verified without putting every car gunning for it on the exact same dyno on the same day with no corrections, anyway, the idea of a dyno record is just that, an idea.

Apparently what I did was impossible but what begi did was awesome.

I thought I did the right research, asked the right questions, built the right parts and got the right results, but it wasnt good enough.

Begi claims even more power again and everyone sucks their dick.

This thread has sucked a lot of enthusiasm from me about this forum, not about my builds.

I think it's pretty safe to say that begi does not get their dick's sucked on this forum.
