You look at numbers wayyy too much. Especially horsepower ones. I guarantee you race from a 2nd gear roll to 125-130mph it will be within a car length of distance. He has faster spool, better transient response and more torque. Race then come back and you can talk

 

Great point!

Bench racing involves too many variables - I guess we'll just have to wait for the real thing to take place... When?!?

 

Exactly. Run what cha brung

 

i second that!! that like me saying ams shop car is slow cause i got a 45r but only run 10s

 

All I know Horsepower wins races, not Torque

 

No, i would not say its a slow car, slow driver yes

 

Oh you're right thats why Honda's rule in the world of racing

Comeon Charlie, thats a retarded comment and you know it. Horsepower doesnt win races. A multitude of things do and horsepower is only one of them.

 

LOL I havent been around hondas in a long time....

ok, how about horsepower, traction and driver skill?

 

there's a lot more to being faster than just horsepower on the dyno... I don't know why all anyone talks about on here is PEAK whp - who cares? - what we should be posting in our EvoM signatures is our area under the curve...

I believe there was a video over on the 'other' Evo site (that allows street racing) showing a maxxed-out stocker on meth abusing some GT35r from a roll.

The FP Green has been shown to be close to 50trim #'s on pump gas, with the difference being the 50trim has about 15-20 more topend whp while giving up some low-mid torque to the Green...

Go back and watch Blockhed's video with the Green vs the 3065 - the Green pulls a car or two in second right off the bat (quicker spool, response, low-end torque); it takes the 3065 until 4th to start walking it (has more top end whp). The 3065 flows much more than both the green and 50trim (65lbs/min vs 49,50; respectively), if its whp was only mildly higher than the Green's (i.e. 50trim) it most likely never would have caught up...

 

How about horsepower, torque, response, shifting (driver) and most importantly powerband.

 

 

EVO 8, first tune, FP Green+GSC S1 cams, usual mods, 100 oct tune, 21 psi max hp,car was having problems with knock so tuned for safety, till problem solved

 

That graph looks awful. Serious problems there indeed. Max torque at 5700rpm? Woah
Why would you even post a graph that looks like that where clearly the car has serious problems

 

that is awesome i was wondering wat that turbo would do cuz i was thinking about buying that turbo but i think i am going to go with the gt35r kit

 

So that I can make fun of it???
