Update from Dallas..LSx's representin' H-town!
Here's a quick update from the HPD July Jam...
These dyno pulls were in 115 degree temp. !!
Tiago makes 955rwhp heat soaked (2nd pull) 1st pull didn't record.
DJ's99ss Makes 880rwhp smoking the clutch on the dyno. (boost only, we tried to spray it but the SPEC stage 5 was done.) we had two 225lb + guys sitting on the back to keep the tires from spinning. That worked but the clutch just wouldn't hold.
A supra with a 91mm turbo maxed out the dyno on boost alone 1200/1200!
We were the only two LS1's there trying to battle it out with the kings of the dyno(supra's)
More later, time to hit the streets of Dallas. Well atleast try to.

Had a great time at Ross Motorsports. Ross is a class act, great guy! Talk about some incredible rides that showed up. Was like a car show with some dyno runs thrown in...
Yes it was pretty hot yesterday for the pulls but like Mike said I think Houston put on a pretty good show for the Dallas boys...only wish it could have been better later that night but we just couldn't get anything started.
There was plenty of muscle at Ross' shop thats for sure. Major props has to go to Tiago and his sleeper TT T/A that shocked the hell out of every single person standing in that shop...I knew it would and just waited to see the looks on everyones faces...Talk about some $$$ changin' hands and some WTF looks ...Congrats Tiago and Eric for a unbelievable set up!!
And Stephan for bringing his MONSTER Supra out for the dyno shoot out. Not sure where in Houston he "drove" the car from to the event but I gotta give it to him! That car is a F'N site to see...pegs the dyno 1200HP with no Nitrous! I can see 1350+ no prob then throw another 300+ for the kit... CRAZY!!! Then drives the damn thing home...
My "play" day could have been better but I now know what the car is capable of and I'm pretty happy about it...blowin' through the clutch it suprised quite a few of the Dallas crew. As soon as I can get the clutch situation figured out I'll be headin' out for some late night fun and a few hits at HRP...
Spun the tires on the first pull so...a little help from some "big" boys...
