I WILL have my car at the track with the new setup before the year is over. If not I am probably going to rip my own face off.

Looks like you have competition from local Supra guys Ethan:
Sweet, huh?

So
So Ethan..what are your 1/4 mile times w/that 900 plus rear wheel horsepower?
Is that a veilside surge intake you got there?
At what RPM does your big turbo spool at? Is it sluggish to drive at lower revs cuz of the lower compression?
For street driving?

Not all dyno queens make fast cars, but I will be honestly upset if my car doesn't go <9.5 (If it doesn't run 145+ first day out I will also be upset) on its first day at the track with this setup. It makes instant boost with the 200 shot for spool up, and I am getting to the point where I am seriously considering spraying the 200 all the way, which should put me in the 1000 RWHP unlocked!
I also think my car will cut better 60s now than before, because it comes on a lot harder with the 200 shot than it did with the old setup and now I also have a trans brake if I want to use it

The intake manifold is an SP manifold.
My car builds positive boost around 4400 RPM or so, and full boost close to 6000. On the shift it never drops out of full boost so the only issue is getting out of the hole, which is why the car has a 200 shot spool up kit, which makes long nonexistant. On the spray my car spools up quicker than a stock twin supra.

i got a question.. how come the torque numbers are so low? shouldn't they be pretty close to your hp number? I've seen a lot of slips for the single supras and some of them have higher torque than hp.

The tq is so low because it lost the rpm reference during the dyno run so it didn't pick up the peak tq.
You can see where the line disappears... Realistically it is a bit over 700 RWTQ. I assure you though, any of the BIG turbo cars have higher HP than TQ numbers.

It takes one hell of a driver to make any car do <9.5 sec, esp. with 6 gears to bang through, don't be so hard on yourself if you don't get it the first time out. That video you made with the two burn-outs in the neighborhood and the nitrous dyno, where those made when you had 981rwhp or still 865? I always wondered that. Either way, it sounds like a Boeing is taking off on the runway!

Anyways, the video of the car spraying on the dyno (the one with the "rock the boat" soundtrack) is base boost with spool up, so it is close to 800 RWHP.
I don't think I have ever uploaded the video of the 981 RWHP run, because I don't think I have it videotaped!
The burnouts in that one video were 2 years ago with the 63 and a lot less power. The car is a lot louder now!
The in car video I posted where we do 5k rpms in 1st to redline in second was at base boost so @ 800 RWHP, and it was without spray.
