She'll take it. 11 psi is nothing on the old 5.3! I think it'll take 14 before I really have to worry about it breaking. I'm only 8.6:1 compression.

Does this mean Ju1ce has redeemed himself? Does this video make up for the phantom GT-R race and subsequent call-out from the owner? hahaha

Since I'll never be going to CT to race Ju1ce, I really wonder how my 4-dr daily-driven sleeper Grand Prix would stack up against this now legendary Regal. SRZ: How much power are you putting down or a guesstimate? The cam+gears+stall G8 I ran claimed 470rwhp and after his initial punch we were pretty even with me gaining ever so slightly.

Edit: Just noticed your sig while checking out your SRZ vs E55 & C63 thread. If you're at 413rwhp then I'm happy because it means at 8psi I could probably take Ju1ce at 12psi. If sig is out dated, then ut. ohhhh lol

subzerotm

haha.. the G8 owner that you raced is completely full of **** with his hp claims.. what's done to your grand prix?

Ju1ce

Phantazm what do you have for a transmission?
Chances are SRZ would probably beat that '470whp' G8 you raced :-p

Honestly, the last thing I want to do now after finally getting it on the road is building another motor lol. Possibly down the road, but for now I'd like to run this one through all of next season too. I know a few people have advised against it, but I may throw methanol injection on it and run 14 psi for the time being. We'll see.

Ju1ce

e85 and 20psi
You have an infinite amount of headroom on that turbo lol

Thanks for the compliments, guys! When my dad finally got to check out my car after the cam, I was expecting him to tell me that I ruined it because it was so loud. Instead he told me that it sounded awesome and I should leave the exhaust the way it is, lol.

I'd say 3-4 judging by the video. Have you made any chances since then?

My sig is accurate, although the track numbers are up for debate.

G8's won't make 470 cam only. A GXP with an M6 might be able to pull it off, but most likely not an auto, and definitely not a GT.

Ju1ce

You have to remember that a lot of people run on fisher price dynos and/or use play school correction factors.

Could have also been one of those cell phone Apps. They seem to be accurate...

Good runs! Guess I gotta mod up.

Who all builds those?

GotHemi?

This. My car only made 424rwhp but trapped 118 @ around 4300lbs. Higher than a lot of cars making "more" power, some were even lighter.

So what do suppose you would trapp at about 3140?

I bought all the parts and took them to my uncle who slapped it all together for me.
