STS & Forged 347 low compression So my friend has been building up his car for more than a year. He did all the work himself with friends. Yesterday was the moment of truth. He took it down to XXX motorsports and had it tuned for low boost 9 PSI until he gets the intercooler. He pushed something like 507RWHP. He did not get dyno sheet so when we get one from John one of us will post it up here. I can't wait to see the graph...stay tuned.
I'll have to get the graph up tomorrow. It was 507/498 SAE corrected on a super safe tune. Car has 15 degrees of timing and 11.5 A/F till Mark gets used to it and some miles on the motor. When he adds the front mount and turns it up to 14 or so it is really gonna rock. Congrats to Mark on all the hard work paying off!

Mark seemed all excited like a kid on christmas morning when i talked to him on the phone. He simply said the car was FAAAAAAST. He ran Dave i think for ***** and giggles and said it was even funny. Congrats to him though, i know he's been working on it for a loooooong time. That turbo has been sitting in his living room for a year and a half!
Jon, you going up there this weekend to tinker around? He said he wanted to do some small stuff on it and clean it up. I'd like to get some video doing a Lucky 13 run. I might need a push from somebody to get my sLowS1 moving so i can keep up with you guys!

[QUOTE=kjmdrumz3]Better keep lots of check valves handy for the oiling system, mine liked to dump oil into the FMIC. [\QUOTE]
Mark said he is using some oil...we are going to have to go through it to find out where from. John don't forget to post up the graph.
