but will be from 40 to 165 so i guess that leaves jordan out for hes only deadly from 40 to 100

but in all fairness , being on 17 in drag radials takes less power to turn then 20in wheels .. the supra will get to speed quicker but the 20's will hold top end with less power its simple laws of physics

add to the equation almost 20 more rwhp hp and a smaller compressor wheel

i think this should be redone from say 60mph on up and not where it was last time , this should be done where jerome and dave did theres ( no one mention locations please i think even on jeromes 20's there MIGHT be a different outcome



maybe if i ever get these cams in and fix the coolant problem and get retuned i would like to match up with roger

i plan on doing pump and 103 tune so maybe rogers 28psi against me at 26psi both on r154's , this should be interesting

Not to start cheet but these cams you have, have made more trips through the pages of multiple forums and threads then I care to remember, you have them should I put them in/// Alfa says don;t put them in /// I just got my 268 cams /// at this rate my 14 yr old son will be racing you and the cams might still not be in!! Not to give you to much grief but a boost leak for 6 months or at least in your signature/// cams for 6 months/// coolant loss for at least 3 months/// braking in the clutch 3 months/// if I do the math conservatively /// 6+6+3+3= YEP you will be racing Jason but I will have to put my foot down and that race will only be at the track, and If memory serves me correct you didn't build a track car so I guess that ends that!!!! LMFAO But seriously just put the wam things in already and fly in Alfa so you will know that a 1j is a motor to be reckoned with ( win, lose, or draw) Respect earned Respect given Don't you think its about time??????

if roger was long gone because jerome had to back off completely how the heck is he supposed to fully catch him , i can see it if roger had like 450hp but hes already running more then jerome to begin with so of course hes gonna pull away

3rd gear pulls are far more effective for a v160


jordan , you forget i am dbb and trust me boost comes on fast and hard but so linear that i dont lose traction

and yes at 26psi will be well into rogers terr and beyond

I'll just dial down the boost in 2nd and were good to go.

You did test for HCs in the coolant right? That came back negative????

If you haven't already, Autozone rents the tool to pressurize your coolant system. Worth a shot, considering its free and will take like 5 min.

i have talked to a few pros as well as arp and they all concur that i should try re trq the head bolts to see if one might be alittle off creating a ever so slight lift around the water jackets whereas it would over pressurize the cooling system under sustained full boost

if not here comes new hg

coolant leak is still driving me crazy , richard , danny etc etc can all attest to that seeing in person

cams just got in my possession like 3 weeks ago ,so whats your point

dont worry little 1j man , i didnt build it for drag racing but will fortify it to try and hand you your a$$

i think it would be very intersting both on race tunes

i do things my own way and in my own time which is why may car still runs strong after 2.5 yrs on boost on a na-t setup

You just spent time energy and money to pull your v covers and plenum for polishing and the cams are where??? If I was going to do all that work I surely would of retorqued the head and put the cams in then or changed the HG if necessary for the coolant loss issue!!!! Just my 2 cents!!!!

"(i didnt build it for drag racing but will fortify it to try and hand you your a$$)"
You mean so you can call my son Jason his # is 954) 709-$$$9
