I was thinking the same thing if you made 386 on that dyno all the stock turbo evos with 440 would be in the 10s no problem

First off, you can't compare dyno to dyno. If you want to bring any of those 440 whp TTP cars to the track and show me what's up then bring it anytime. None have gone because they know what the results will be and they will not reflect 440 whp MD numbers. There I said it, bring anyone one of them and lets see the trap speeds. Secondly, I am planning on building a monster and needed an aem anyways. Did that give me a ton of hp, nope. But it gives me tuning options. Yes the big boys play hard. The turbo was failing and I decided to replace it for fun. And the tires were switched in hopes of better 60's. And yes, if I installed the slicks and made no other changes I could've easily driven a 10.90 pass out of it the way it sat. Could it have gone 10.7, highly doubt it. Are we done, nope. Are you going to see 10.4-10-50's from this car on stock turbo, YES. Now I will say it again. If anyone wants to step up and bring a TTP meth car with 8000 hp to the track, bring it anytime. I'll pay for the entrance fee This isn't about setting a car up for much less. It is about building a great track car with options down the road.

It's a beautiful thing when all involved share a common goal!

I THINK all Cloud was saying is that it would've been nice to see Oscar drive your car before you changed your setup.
As far as I knew your first goal was to have your car run 10s with you driving it and without spending more money than you HAD to. Yes this journey is YOURS so you make all the decisions you have to, yet you also said you wanted to watch your wallet. You had planned to get a BR engine and a bigger turbo right, so why all of a sudden spend the dough on a meth kit, a new stock 9 turbo, and have Oscar drive?
Heck, you and I have spoken a few times and this was right out of left field. I don't believe anyone in the evo community expected this.
This voice sounds very familiar...

You cannot compare a car's dyno numbers on different dynos on different days. This is not about a before and after. This is about now. The car is coming along and I intend to make it faster. Then its getting a fully built BR motor and I may try for 9's stock turbo just for fun and to give us all something to talk about.
Well, we all hope to see you going faster.

Thanks, I didn't catch your pm in time. There is alot of emotion going on right now for everyone. I really am trying to keep peace here. It can be fun and a learning experience for everyone including me. In my mind, you have to keep pushing foward and trying new things. Some things work and some don't

It was like.... bababababababababababa seeeeeee youuuuuuuu laaaaaaaa tterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... . I mean seriously, that thing is moving!!! Can't wait to see what else you can get out of it... Why not add a O-2 dump tube???
