ITT: Mike swaps a jet engine into his Corvette
Car is set at only 12psi, wanted to see how it would do against my buddies full bolt-on, -2F, stretched R1 Obviously didn't brake boost or anything to try and get boost built before the hit. It was a friend, so I wasn't concerned about the actual outcome. I was pacing him when boost came in. Notice the twin Tial Bovs. There's a 3rd one lurking around somewhere too. |

I would do disgusting things to that car....
|
Looks like the Vette is running without the hood in place.

Dang, that looks like one of my friends on that bike... :)
how's everybody been? |
holy shit its mike
Hows your crazy miata project going man???? http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g9...x/IMG_0148.jpg |
Dude, I've been up to alot...
The miata is running...but still need to touch alot of minor details...devils in the details. Building a pro street busa...just waiting on some piping to do the turbo and that'll be done. Putting one of those new precision ceramic bearing, billet compressor wheel 6262's on it. Shooting for low low 7's around 200. The vette just got finished up. Had it tuned up to 28ish psi...at 12psi I ran that decently modded r1 and was actually reeling him in when I shifted to 4th. That would have been ugly on kill mode. Then I still got the 636...It's slow but fun in corners haha |

I'd have to post pics later. Too much effort on my iPhone haha...I'm lazy.
Planning on going to the kemah/kingwood meet this Saturday...for anyone who is interested. |
Hey Mike, welcome back.
Some asshole spammer took my email address from your old email address and I've been getting all kinds of shitty offers! |
Wow, I've been waiting for this update...and it was worth it.
Subscribed for pics of the projects, especially that insane Miata. Probably won't make it to Kemah this weekend, in-law obligations. Take care man, glad to have you posting again. |
Turbo whistle :drool:
|
wow. you sir like speed. Subscribed!
|
Any details or a thread on the Miata? You know it's gonna suck for autocross right? :laugh: All in all I'm really jealous of all your toys. I've got a lightly modded 06 Gsxr 750 and couldn't even imagine piloting a turbo drag busa.

And then the vette...which doesn't look very crazy at all. But as you can see, can hold it's own.

You dirty tease.... where are the engine bay pics...
|
great googly moogly...
|
yes, very nice to see mike back.
I hope you keep us updated on your beast of a miata. |
That vette is dirty, i was in class and played the video there like what the fuck was that haha, one retarded vette
|
The video does nothing to show how incredible it is to ride in that Vette. Probably the fastest car I will ever ride in. Mike, I should've taken pictures/video while I was down there. :)
