No way man, my junks slow. I once raced this mazda protege. Totally blew my doors off. I proceeded to scream "Monika!!!" in my sleep for the following 3 nights. That was last weekend.

I won't try to bench race and guess exactly what I would trap at Sea Level, I just know it would be higher than here.
I knew the jeep was fast I ran it just to see were my car stood to a srt8 jeep already knowing he would probably crush me.Actually he pulled on me by about half car on topend this was before I swap to a different header ported my manifold did the h2b conversation and made an additional 10whp on the dyno made power till 9k vs old tune power died at 8k.

Oh I see, I may have misread your post that you talked about racing the Jeep. I thought you were saying you beat it before adding more parts. I'll stop calling you a liar now.

Did he say 450hp? Did you pull 3 spark plug wires off or something lately I wasn't aware of?

Well I didn't want to give away my complete setup but I also pulled a stock eaton off of a termi, ditched my FMIC, and plumed my compressor strait into the supercharger. I figure the heat soak alone would allow me to heatplow my driveway by just parking it and letting it idle this winter.

Comparing a built race car to a 10 second street car, because your street car just barely made it into the 13s?
