Scott88vr6 = Bastard

A bastard rollin' on gold 18 inch Volk LE37's with a polished lip. Just saw them and they are sweet. He's on his way home to install them on the car. Then he will post pics, then we will all cry.

I so had my LE37's years before you got yours ... what a copycat!

The hon-DUH is alive again and back in SLC. This motor setup is much more conservative ... with compression lowered from 11:1 to 9.5 to 1 ... from ultra-light internals to sturdy stuff. Hopefully I won't be breaking the crank on this one! Dyno'ed at 339. Down about 50, but if I want more the motor is now built for about 20 PSI. I'm currently running 9.

20psi, running 9... holy crap... that's insane if raising supercharger boost works like raising turbo boost (5-7 hp per pound of boost) Anyway, the car looks awesome Scott, it'll look super awesome once the suspension comes in!
Is anyone going to the Cinco De Mayo concert on Sunday?

Mike is your set-up intercooled??? I ask because superchargers compress air at a far lower efficiency than a turbo. So even though upping the boost seems real logical, if you don't have a good way to cool the charge it becomes extremely hard to build good power and evade detonation. You should ditch the supercharger next winter and do a good turbo set up on that beast. I think we would all be bowing to 1fsts2k if that were the case!!!


Ohh, congrats on getting it back, I look forward to spending some time with you guys at the track this fall.

I think that Mitch is toying with the idea of building a turbo S2k in the not too distant future. You just can't match the efficiency of those damn vtec heads. Not even with 4g63powa!!
