If the other people you are talking about have cams then, yes, I would assume that is part of the difference in the pump numbers.

God, does someone have to have every possible mod on their car before they are permitted to post results on this ****ing forum? This **** gets old...I'm not going to compare my car/tune/numbers to anyone else so if you don't like it you are free to move along.

I shared my numbers for anyone thinking about going this route - doesn't mean that my particular setup is for EVERYONE, or that everyone needs to agree. Go search through the threads of the other EvoGreen numbers and find me one post I made saying someone's numbers suck.

Not to mention, again, meth was not flowing the correct amount. Not making excuses and I'm not embarrassed at all about my numbers, but there is definitely more to be had.
Thats awesome and thats why I said numbers are numbers, but a lot of times they translate into track times which in reality is how fast youre car really is. I wouldnt be happy if I had an upgraded turbo and was running stock turbo times, thats all. Since your meth wasnt functioning properly, it may be hurting you more than you think. Next time will tell.

No the numbers still won't tell, but you are right - track times will.

Numbers are just numbers! The real test is taking the car to the track and see what it traps at. Do you have any plans for that?
Enjoy the car, I am sure it pulls real nice

Did you buy the EvoGreen new or send in your stock IX turbo for a rebuild to FP?

Some colder plugs will also help you out. I made 365whp (about 410whp on Dynojet) on a Mustang dyno with the stock turbo, and Im spraying 950cc/min of meth lol. You can definately make more.

Not sure what you mean...please elaborate. When I ran the Snow kit in my last car, Snow shows that as something to run in the car. They say 2-3 bottles, so I added one to get the mixture a little higher. Not being smart at all - please tell me more.

Yeah I do plan on making it to the track. It opens April 15th, so a couple of weeks after I'll be out there. I don't do 1st days of anything

950ml of meth - WOW! I'm at a puny 225 right now LOL

I paid $1200 or so for a new turbo, which includes a core charge, and will get $300 back when I return mine. It was one month to the day from when I ordered it to the day it arrived at my door.

I fail to see how running with the stock cams would be the same as running with the Cosworth MIVEC set-up.
