Back to the dyno today ... with race gas ... results inside
Another update for everyone.
My dynos were unfortunately wastegate limited. After not being able to make more than 21 or so PSI with my boost controller, we opted to pull the line to the wastegate and just keep an eye on the Boost Guage ... if it goes to high, LET OUT OF IT!
I was running Torco 110 octane leaded gas.
This was a pump gas pull at 11 psi:
This was a pump gas pull at 19 psi:
(see what my elite tuning skills can do - got rid of that huge drop at 6,250rpm)
This was a race gas pull at approximately 22 psi
I think with some more time on the dyno and some more race gas I could probably get it nice and smooth like the 19 psi pump gas pull.
Here is a comparison dyno from 11psi to 22psi
Thanks again Xotic Motorsports, you know I will be back for more when I get a better wastegate spring
As far as I know, I broke my own *stock block* SC300 record. Shooting for the all time GE record someday
Just as a side note, I did 30 pulls in total today. Car is still running great

very nice man, glad to see your car running strong. i have a question for you though... don't you have the stock 5 spd tranny? from what i've read if you keep pushing the car at such high hp, the tranny is going to blow out. also how did you fix your tranny problem? did the thread locks fix it?

Great runs Angel!
I believe that that transmission was replaced some time ago, perhaps rebuilt to handle more power. If you look back, I kind of remember some issues with the clutch/trans or just clutch.
Anyways, the more power, the more ability to break, and the more opportunity to improve it so it won't. It is a cycle of happiness - each milestone you achieve, you realize what comes with the territory and you appreciate/embrace it.

Yes, the first 5 speed was replaced, but with another 5 speed. Angel figures that keeping the power on the dyno alone shouldn't destroy this one. He just needs to keep it off the track until he can afford to get the 6 speed. So, it is babied other than on the dyno.
So far, everything has been running great! The car sounds AMAZING on the dyno and the tranny has been holding up beautifully. We'll just keep our fingers crossed that things keep going so well.

mrshabo - the reason my bolts were backing out was because of a bad flywheel, that has been replaced.
And everything else my wife (Halo) said is correct I have some fun with it on the street, but I keep myself under control at the same time. Hopefully it will last awhile.

Nice #s!! Are you running one of our 63s??
Our record on a GE block is 980 rwhp, built of course!!

Larry, yes, it is your Sp63 turbo (on a side note, I sent you a check awhile back for a compressor housing bracket and never got the bracket, but it was only $7, so I didn't sweat it). So these passes are done with a missing bracket as well
Yeah, I think I have the stock block record. I am familiar with Ethans 981 run I don't think I will ever get that far, as I don't plan on upgrading turbo anytime soon ... I hope to make 650rwhp and then I will quit.

I had planned to beat his 585rwhp yesterday ... I think if I would've added some timing into the top end I could probably get there and have the power not fall off, but I was happy with my numbers at those boost levels. I will get there soon enough, just need to find a stiffer spring and get the time to put it in and get back on the dyno yet again.
