I TOLD YOU SO.

Sorry, just had to do it.

The clutch did blow though.

Anyway.

You guys made it on worldcarfans.com congrats on the publicity. Hopefully you guys will print money, and make it more affordable for all.

Do you stand there and watch them do the smog check? Towards the end they will pop the hood (if it isn't already) and search around for emissions equipment and illegal parts. They will also go under the car to check the cats. They do this in a few minutes.

one thing is the tranny holding that much power and another thing is holding that much power for long. I'm looking for longevity.

Lets see how long it can take it especially now that the weak point is no longer the clutch.

I am guessing up to 350wtq is going to hold just fine. Any more than that and you are pushing the limits of reliability, but it may hold it for a while. And clutch selection will have an impact on transmission life. Sprung clutches save trannies.

That's crazy fast! Can't wait to see long-term durability results.

And i know you can break 10's... Whatever your plans are, you got this! Good luck!

I personally want to keep the power where it's at. This power level to me is safe for a customer - im not looking to push the motor to its breaking point... Well not just yet Looking to see how realistic this power level is for the everyday guy , 1/4 or road course guy. When SD tuning is ready I'll convert the car to that.

Like I said I don't want to deliver a bomb to anyone, and I think Don feels the same way.

I'm not sure what Don wants to do next other than go 10s with the way the car is now.

It's his show so I'm game for whatever.

man, seriously have you been following the progress

2 weeks ago they pulled 12.1 in the same setup, this time round different driver same setup its in the 11s

get it

Just...why? I saw this type of thing in the late 90's. Boosting a car to all hell that was never meant to be that powerful. So much money wasted on constantly breaking parts. Have still not learned our lesson that these car are not drag racing machines, but are track monsters? Yes, you built a fast car, but for the same money I could have probably went out and bought a GT-R that will do the same times all day and still have a warranty and be street legal.

Good Point.....I have faster cars!

[Tansey86]

I'm really excited for a low compression, built motor, high boost, build on pump, for the people who plan on turning this car into a high hp beast who dont use e85. Maybe a gt35r

So, you're telling me, that a driver can take a car that can't physically do better than a 14.5 based on the laws of physics, and then shave 2.4 seconds off that time and make it a 12 second car? Is santa and the easter bunny real as well?

I've been following this thread and almost every other thread from the begining. While the "driver mod" improved on Don's time, it's Don's turbo that was the best mod, and not your stated "the driver mod is the best mod". That's what my statement said.

Anyway, enough of this nonsense argument. Hats off to Don, and John, and everone else involved.

I'm glad you say the stock engine can take 400WHP safely cuz all I need is around 250whp which should be more than enough for that car.
if 400hp is safe I might push to 300 whp but then brake upgrades might be needed.

I'm guessing that whats keeping the tranny alive is the low torque nature of the engine. we'll see.

[fenton]

The car didn't do 14.5 last week @Hawaiian. It did 12.1. That is the point your missing. They shaved .8 seconds with better weather and better driver hence the driver mod comment.

I am seriously impressed with the horsepower/torque the stock internals are holding. Seeing the Crawford Performance engine pics, it makes sense.
