Thanks much man, where did you stop? Did you see the pics of the car rotating? Or the rot cut out? Or just hit the end with the fuel cell from hell?

350whp seems to be the magic number...

Dave's got a sexy sexy FD for sure.... and yes, I know quite a few Dave's

350? psssssshhhhhhh, 400 or nothing......... next I'll be saying 500 or nothing

best thing about it though is, my fuel system has plenty wiggle room to go, i think he said it was at about 70% duty cycle.. its just the turbos wont last long on anymore pressure

Dave loved how hard my car pulled, he even tempted me to up the boost haha

Nice numbers indeed. Close to 300ft/lbs is nothing to sneeze at

You should be able to hit 400 on that fuel system. I like to keep things to ~75% duty but can definately go higher. Last year mine was @ 93%

oh, btw Brian, Dave loved the seats, especially since he had customers tell him theres no way to make them fit

Who told him that? Keyboard jockeys that don't know how to rock a plasma? People crack me up sometimes.... then again I have a knack for stuffing things where they don't belong. My nickname is the Himenator for good reason Hopefully they were comfy for him, he should be in mine tomorrow. Still need to put the front clip on, dash surround, wipers, stereo, adjust the exhaust system (hangers are too close to the fuel cell) wire up the speed signals, wash the car, yes it will be happening ~3am if I'm lucky, shower and hit the road - REDBULL DON'T FAIL ME NOW! I have three of the big mothers in the fridge

or i do some crazy amount of ducting...and get dual oil coolers lol

so i think you can see where my next step lies hahaha


oh yea, dyno sheets posted soon

Do it over the winter if ever. It'll give us plenty of time to plan it out, gather parts, we can use my FD for test fitment/mock-up if need be but I'm not a fan of PJ's like that over the summer. I want to be enjoying my FC and working on the XJ although it rarely happens like that. Not to mention I have a backlog till about october which is both good and bad I guess...... and the vert should be here soon too assuming the FC gets a clean bill of health tomorrow, Limerock Thursday, suss out the rear wheel speed sensors and then at some point trade tranny's so the Vert has one and install the wheel speed sensors then the FC is done, till next time.

Don't up the boost though, the turbo's really don't last very long at those levels. Mine are starting to leak/smoke slightly. I'm hoping that it clears up but I doubt it will. I may be in the mkt for a new set very soon
