(boom01) !
I repeat.....
(boom01) !
Do you have a WHP estimate your shooting for...(just curious).

I gonna need to update my passport and see this monster in person!

I require a car that will run 13.00 Sec on the 1/4.

The T-25 60 Trim can create as much as 20 PSI but that would be blowing hot.

The last run at 10 PSI on my car on the G-Tech Pro was 181.0 HP....

A Stock Protege runs 95 HP on the G-Tech... Mazda Claims 130 at the crank...Divide by...Carry the one...

Quick Ratio Calculation...
10 PSI was 245 HP at the crank.

This year, 15 PSI will be my starting point after a 1000KM break in... (laugh)

 

[Brian MP5T]

It's very cool. I look forward to lots of dynos from everyone! Brian may just have the best looking stuff of us all though

Later!

There will be about 4 or 5 400ish whp protege's this spring/summer. Brian should be able to get there, Focus should get there, MPNick has something up his sleeve, Beau and MAM will have at least one, I should be up there, Asian6er, might be getting there, BlkZoomZoom should be up too... trying to think if I'm missing anyone else...

AHEM....DAMMIT!

Pard my frankness, I don't really talk like that...

400 is too high for me and i dont think bryan wants to go that high, he can correct me if im wrong.

 

[Brian MP5T]

I'm not shooting for a HP number, rather a timeslip number. If it takes 400 Hp to run a 12.9 second 1/2 with slicks then so be it.

It takes about 275 WHP to run a 12.9 second 1/4 mile time.

(laugh) 280 is the target then. That was at 18 PSI? (boom08)

296 WHP at 17 - 17.5 psi.

Sweet. I was reading an article on a Turbo Focus runnig 15 PSI and making a ton more HP than a stock SRT-4 even though the Ford was a 2.0 L and runnig the same boost. is the SRT-4 De-tuned or something?

 

[changedman]

srt4= LOW compression.... so low it really hurts the HP numbers. IIRC its 8:1 or something
the SVT on the other hand is IIRC 10:1 or so

 

[Brian MP5T]

BUMP for Post # 6 on page one. SEATS!!!

I guess it's more reliable. Don't get me wrong, I'm still supre impressed with the numbers for a car out the box...

How Much and where in Montreal (Laval?)

 

[Focus]

South Shore, and almost $400 to do it.

No thanks... Holy Crap. (chair)

Mine is done, I was just thinking that it would probably stay cleaner.

 

[BlkZoomZoom]

Did you clear coat it?

 

[Brian MP5T]

Did you clear coat it?

Mine?

It's a sumer car and I usually just polish it weekly. The clear coat would just burn off, no?
