i'm not missing the point
my car does its thing on race gas

we race on pump because you have a stock engine
you have a bigger turbo.
i have a built engine.
i think it evens things out a little bit.
i like your car. i think it is cool that you will come out. i'm not trashing you.


fyi
were you wot shifting?


for the record:

dear mr. silverofs
i will win

At 20psi, your Gt-35R will flow just as much if not more air than Zach's turbo. Not to mention theoretically your engine should be much more efficient at flowing that air (IE higher volumetric efficiency). Zachs car felt like a rich pig before we shifted his fuel map. It feels mucho better now, should be an interesting race.

The point is replacing my OEM hood would cost more than $800.00. @ 6'4" and 265 lbs weight is not the main concern. I could just buy this https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...highlight=hood

Also, Carbon Fiber Trunk lid w/ out wing = 10.6 lbs. The stock trunk weighs 22.5 lbs.with no wing.
My Seibon hood is advertised at 16lbs I believe.

good
i was 10.2-1 (afr)
i'm not sure why i was running so rich. i leaned it out last weekend. it is better

brandon was driving and i was tuning. it was funny



why would a bigger turbo not flow more air than a smaller turbo at the same psi?
