Yes, $4400 for the engine and the updates to the site are coming soon. We've actually added quite a few things to the descriptions over the last few days.

No, I will not use gear based boost, yuk, I'm too old school for that. I'll use a better tire first.

 

maybe ive missed it since im not on much anymore. but are you still gonna be trying fo 8's on a DOT tire with this setup when it warms up dave?

 

David the results of this are pretty crazy, them 2.3's are somthing else, and the technology has been improved so much by you guys which is very astonishing.

 

I plan to try to go 8's again, IF Mickey Thompson releases their new 17" slick we will try it on those, if not them a DOT.

 

you really caught my interest in going to your 2.3 with this even though ive been opposed to going to a 2.3 build. definitely waiting to see how this revs out and boogies at track. see how the lightened internals hold up to internal acceleration(its also rotating more.correct?)

are M/T in their own testing stages of the tire. do you know? the seasons coming up and i need a set of something.

 

Try some VHT on the tires Dave!

Congrats on the numbers.

Boost for boost is an inaccurate comparison with different displacement engines. You should be comparing shaft speed to shaft speed instead. Chances are your shaft speed is nearly the same the lower boost pressure.

R888's are some pretty sticky tires. You can fit some 285's in there and finally hookup. check out the Reese Evo.

 

strokin it!!! this car boogies i bet

 

I have not heard anything from M/T on the tires.

I've ran R888's not nearly good enough for this, to hook it needs a "drag" tire. Boost controller is in the same position with the same gate as it was with the 2.0 with the exception of the 3 psi I turned it down. I've found that while a larger CC engine should drive the boost higher from moving more air the extra displacement eats it up, I'd put money on shaft speed being nearly identical.

 

what size tires are you running dave? 245's? Have you thought about running 265's or wider?

I can spin 245's with 480DJ HP, where the 265's didn't seem to mind if I was still turning a bit before I got on throttle. The 285's don't think about spinning unless the car is already sliding sideways. Just a thought.

 

wow when is this car going to stop making power? LOL

 

Wow! Great power and combo!

 

Awesome power, epic combo dave! Thanks for sharing.

 

Another high quality high hp Buschur build. Will you be posting up any pics or videos soon of the finished product?

 

Yes, we will get some video done and some new pictures. I hope to get it back on the dyno this week.

 

Good work Dave. What would the turn around time be on one? Let me know. Also the IM is finally going in this week.
