Default Where is SUX2BU???

Anybody know where SUX2BU has gone? I was following his build with quite a bit of interest. After he got the TRex installed it seems he disappeared. Anybody?

Glad to see that, just making sure he didn't get locked up for some insane speeding ticket or something.

Yeah. on one dyno it did 400 rwhp with the 26" slicks. then changing nothing else just leaving my 100 lb 31" monster truck tires on it did 377 rwhp at another dyno. They messed with the tune and got it up to 397 rwhp. i wanna go back and dyno on the slicks to see if it picks up any.

the guy that tuned my car said that i could be loosing as much as 30 horsepower with my et streets over a radial tire. plus you have a large non lockup stall, that is killing you a bunch on the dyno too.as well as pretty low gears

screw the dyno, get that bitch to the track.


you should be happy with those numbers if it put down 400 with your setup, i have close to the same motor setup as you and i didnt put down close to that.
