What is that god awful buzzing sound? It sounds like he has a bee hive in his trunk. I also like his hotside coolant reroute. Atleast that is what it looks like.

The fuel pump.

Why is the adjustable cam gear on the exhaust and not intake side?

Why is it so loud? I have a Walbro 255 and the only tim I hear it is when its priming.

From the video (1:49) the pump looks like an aeromotive a1000 that's mounted outside the tank. My friend runs one in his GTO and it screams, of course his car makes more than 200whp.

aeromotive is very loud.

wally 255HP is somewhat loud.

does this POS have a 6 speed or some other strong trans? I don't want to visit cr.net to check, but if he's running a 5sp with a posi rear end I'm going to piss myself laughing

Braineack 11-13-2012 12:12 PM

dont worry, the tires he's running on the rear will break loose before the trans will. :)

I was thinking something is loose. Whatever it is, it's extremely annoying.

I'm seriously tempted to drive to Miami just to race him. Not kidding.

Ryan_G 11-13-2012 01:10 PM

I must have missed the part where he showed the fuel pump. I am at work so I looked away for a few parts of the video.

How did you miss that part of my sentence?

18psi 11-13-2012 01:36 PM

he was blinded by the revolutionary reroute

rleete 11-13-2012 02:03 PM

I like how the reroute used a fluted hose right where it can absorb more heat from the turbo and manifold.

But that's what made it baller!
