Dyno Time!
 

I finally had time to get the car on the Dyno.

I took it to Under Pressure Performance, here in Colorado Springs. They specialize in custom turbo installations, but can tune almost anything

My goal was NOT maximum power. I didn't give them a power goal - the parts are going to make what the parts are going to make. I wanted good power, with a flat torque curve, and conservative enough to last just about forever. They did a pretty good job; 418hp, 405 ft/lbs.

.boB those are really good numbers. Looking at the graph it should be a really smooth engine.

That should get it around the track and most things ON the track as well!

Congrats!

Jeezus. That thing must be so much fun. What does it weigh?

I haven't had it on the scale yet (soon). But I expect to be around 1700 pounds or so. It won't be the fastest car on the track - it would need a better driver for that. But it should be a real hoot to drive.

LOL always the master of understatement! Congrats on a truly fine build and thanks for all the posts along the way!

That's awesome. Congrats man!

Thanx, all. :) I can't wait to get it out on the track in a few weeks.
