Not the only dyno I've seen where the printer was'nt working. I have a graph for my 413rwhp....was on the same dyno that 03turbomach did 432. Is 432 happy for a turbocharged 32v v8?
I can see the gains from bolt ons and the right tune. Also with little stuff to help make that power. Aluminum Driveshaft/lighter wheels/brakes/lighter aluminum flywheel. All that helps put power down.

Also every dyno a little different.

If the Mach has stock internals; then I wouldn't call it happy....I'd call it smart and cautious.

For sure on his part from what I've heard and read. It's ashame it can't take a little more, so easy with boost just to turn it up. We dyno'ed on the same day also. One after another.

New Era Performance (one of the sponsors here).

I'm not buying his claimed HP. Not a chance in hell he made that much power with a stock LS6 and full boltons. He must be related to Juice. Or the dyno isnt reading right. I'm waiting on the graph.

I dont care for dyno numbers, but that 11.1 at 124 backs it up and then some.

Do you believe that bolt-on well tuned ls1's make 350-360 rwhp? If so add 60, a ls6 is rated @ 60 more. I posted a graph when it made 413rwhp/395rwtq somewhere on here. The fast 90 made 13 more rwhp and 10 more rwtq, mot unheard of at all.

edited for graph before fast 90


I can't for the life of me figure out why a ls site will nay say my #'s but swing from the nuts of new bolt-on 5.0's that make 30-40 more rwhp but can't back their's up at the track.

It will go faster at a real track

Instead of attacking him-PM him for his mods. He has a lot of neat stuff that actually helps in reducing rotating weight etc...

well the direction is decided. 1.625 primaries.

headers:

they are just tacked. have to start somewhere. two more tubes on this side.

number 5 will merge directly into the 2.5" pipe.

where the tubes from 7 and 8 join, the tubing steps from 1.625 to 1.75".

Got the bumper on it. Finally took a pic of it too!


Switched out the stock coolant fittings on the trans for some nice -6 fittings. Ran better, higher temp coolant lines to the dual cooler setup we have under the passenger seat.

It'll be a few years before I get any new car.

Parents are moving so I don't exactly have much room (no garage as I'm in a fraternity) or time for one. Depending on if I go to grad school or not, I have a good 2-1/2 - 3-1/2 years (including this one) left of college. (Junior)

Looking good, Will!

We now all expect racing vids, WOT passes, in car speedo pulls, and pulls in general. Dyno?
