The Project Pad

lets not set sights too high, remember.....

its more of a pleasant surprise to run better than you expect to, but a big disappointment to not get what you want right out of the box.

me, i didnt think i would run what i did first time out. you can only take a guess at how happy i was. the long run goals, they are realized for the long run.

hoping for maybe 150hp at the wheels and a solid 17.5x pass.

each wheel.

Almost ready for the road! Got plates the other day. Put the front end back on, just gotta get the bumper back off and re drill the mounts for one of the Zeus fittings cause it ain't lining up to well. Adjust the shifter, then it's road time.

Well, since it's on the road, bring it to 40's: http://motorgeek.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=39645

what he said!!!

well, cars been running well, had a few mishaps but its all to be expected. off the wastegate it pulls pretty freaking hard, iv only gotten on it in one gear or two at a time because you can tell.....by looking/passing other cars....im easily breaking the speed limit, and since im still trying to figure out my speedometer not working right, i havent really even buried it in any gear. BUT, for a few 7-7500 pulls on only 18psi, the thing is an absolute beast.

some pics here....some road vids to be taken once the speedo works, lol.

That looks evil!

DO IT!!!!!

SWEET! Looks like a monster!

shit, that thing is looking evil

Very ,very nice

Cheers,

How has no one asked about this thing in almost a month? So how does it go?

well it goes pretty good when its together, lol. i had to re plumb the wastegate/boost controller tubing becase the hard plastic push to connect line was melting. i also need to plumb the oil cooler setup i have for the car because the temps are much higher then i would like when spiritedly driving....upwards of 240. hooked up the launch control...thats a good time ill tell ya, especially with that staging brake setup i have in the car, only issue with it now is that the ez pass velcro that holds the center gauge panel to the dash isnt capable of holding it there when launching hard, haha...it fell out the two times i did some practice launching on a quite backroad. once the speedometer issue is figured out, which i will hopefully pin down this weekend, i will get some GoPro vids on low boost and post them up!

W want to view video

yea, like real bad.

ill say one thing, the lag isnt all that awful on the street as i thought it was going to be. ill also have to confesss that without the speedo working properly i havent gone over 8,800 balls out in third gear, because i can just guess at how fast its going then...it feels like a guided missle.
