Congrats man. Today's temps. definetly blew for making big power.....just to give you an idea my car was making 470 ish at 4pm and without much tweaking low 5's by 7pm. Also, at this time at night it was still 25 degrees warmer than two months ago when I last threw it on the rollers.

Not sure what I will have for numbers as my car was breaking up due to bad coils possibly. Well see but im starting to realize their are some pretty crazy cars in CT for sure to compete with.

Nice meeting you let me know when you are ready to get the exhaust fixed or retune.

It was a hot day for sure today on the dyno, I exhibited similar tempratures also when I was tuning and noticed that a Evo X I was tuning today was simply out of lungs in this oppressive heat.

At this time of year we sometimes miss the power that turbo cars cam make in the winter with cold, crisp air.

Remember you don't drive a dyno sheet so the numbers are not as important as enjoying the way the car feels and runs.

Hey staatz thanks for stoping by today. Too bad I didn't have final numbers but I would rather wait and have everything run 100%. If I know Dan I will be a heck of a lot closer to 600 than 500 by the beginning of the week. With my power to weight ratio I am willing to throw race gas out the window and run with all you guys on 93 & alky. Well that is if I can hit closer to 600whp.

With the luncatics I have around me on a daily basis 600 whp on pump and alchy now seems tame

George- owner of ICS drives around on STRAIGHT pump gas - HTAGT35R - 30 psi - 630 whp on his Bad Bish II

Suman drives around on 34 psi of boost on pump and alchy (aquamist) Gt37r and makes the same 630 but at a higher power band

Two years ago I would never have agreed with such hevty numbers on pump gas and / or pump and alchy, but they seem like they are becoming more and more common place and more importantly the engines are holding up well at those power levels

After you left, that 300z caught fire on the dyno, I pulled the extinguisher, put it out, and puhed it out into the street, I collected my fee !!

Then the Talon made like 460.

Then the Black Sti with the Cobb protune and green made 430 on pump.
