It said it's being processed on youtube. It should work in a few. I'm assuming he probably just uploaded it.

He doesn't really race often and is kinda lost about how to be effective lol.
I launched on a full brake boost, he hit the gas after I took off lol

To come around me like that after giving up such a huge hit, he's making great power.

I bet if he had more T bolt clamps on his intake pipe that he would have pulled harder...

Nice run! Looks like he may be a decent race for my brother's bird. We'll have to set it up sometime!

LMAO There's a minimum of 6 on there from what I saw. Possibly more.
Either way, good death. GTX has to be hauling *** to come around you that strong, considering how it was with you and the Boss.

Well imagine Ju1ce with some juice. Supercharger and a 70mm turbo, what do you expect?

Overkill? Lol
70mm is a perfect size to make the power he's aiming for =]

Nope... but I'd guess somewhere around 450-475whp as it sits on 16psi.
He'll be turning it up to 20psi when he gets the new MAF and AFC in... Should make above 550 at that point.

I should note, we were having an issue with his MAF and I had to keep the fueling on the rich side. His car is not at all optimized at 16psi, while mine is on 10psi.
We can go about a point and a half leaner on his car when he gets the new MAF, and then from there we'll be able to bump the timing another 4-5 degrees.
Those changes alone should put him over 500whp on 16psi.

So was your exhaust open or closed for this race? I know you mentioned opening it for another race where your security screwed you over. If your exhaust was open in this race... then that GTX is a SERIOUS car.
