400whp Msp Build UP

The video is coming along...im still in the stages of makeing it it will be fairly long,, with many different shot, showing the build process , 20-100mph dashes to some backroad twisties , dyno etc...be patient ..., im a full time student and work 2 jobs, i promise i will post it whenn its done, but let me tell you this car is FAST!!!!
 
Only comment I have other than that I look forward to it as well, is that you can NOT make over 300 horsepower for any length of time and not take out a stock transmission... Unless you are never accelerating in 3rd gear. 3rd gear just can't handle it... there is a chance you can be a bit over 300 for a while, but it is a matter of time before it breaks... Much like our stock rods and 15 psi.. sure you can do it.. but just a matter of when.. not if.. the rods break..

Your car is probably safe/ok or right on that border based on your dyno... but good luck and keep it together! :)

Don'tk now.. but by how much??? As I said... 300 seems to be the marker... how much torque you have is pretty key as well to the failure.. some will last longer than others... but just ask Focus how that's been going ;) LOL.
 
Ive got 4000miles on 16 psi and so far knock on wood the stock tranny and cluth are holding up great...but yes i dont beat on the car every minute..

OHHHH you should've said so before .... i was only pushing 0.75bar =\ and looks like rods #1 and 3 decided to bend a little hehe. i wonder how high the boost spiked at while i was racing that SC mustang =\ i knew i shouldn't have done it lol oh well, that's how we learn =)

so fastlane ... like Steve said here hehe, get ready to buy transmissions =) or forget about 3rd gear hehe
 
Yes i know the trans needs to be rebuilt ...this will be happening in the near future once i get some money to get the gear sets from nick along with the quaife lsd..(first)
