Yeah, 1Sick, people on other forums are going nuts over this car and starting rumors and stuff.
I never immagined that this thread would get that controversial.

Thanks for the compliments.

By the end of the month I'll be around 600hp, and by may over 1000hp. And those figures are without nitrous.

I'll tell you when it happens....LOL Jeff (sc300turbo) knows his stuff, and he's telling me it's not really gonna be driveable. I can always turn the boost way down for daily driving, but then with like 1500cc injectors, I have NO idea how easily it will be able to idle. :/

That's why I've been looking at getting a second SC3 or something else (I found a nice Lotus...wanna let me borrow some $$? lol) to use as my daily driver, and just drive the current one on fridays/weekends, or whenever the mood strikes.

here is one of my crazy but possible ideas

have a switch setting for low boost applications. When you are running at around 400HP it switches to 550CC injectors for the car to idle smoothly and run well in the city....

i think this would be very easy to do this..

p.s. if anyone does this u have to give me half of everything u make

ITS MY IDEA!!! hahahahaha jks guys

Well the problem with this, is that the standalone computer system will be programmed for 1500 injectors. I would have to run different fuel maps for the 550's to work.

A thing I was toying with was to run 785's as my main injectors, and have maybe two additional 1500's or maybe 4 of them, which would spray into the intake plenum where it splits into a "Y" shape. That could solve the idle issues.
