Reddevil shoots for 400 whp....

"Could" have hit 400 whp, but the supercharger belt jumped (no surprise, long story).
But I hit 352 whp @ 5000 rpm and power was climbing! Torque was 391 @ 3600 and full @ 4000 rpm in 3rd gear. Boost was 26 psi.
And I had my first popped wastegate hose ever (forgot to zip tie it on) and hit 32 psi @ 4000 rpm and the wheels started slipping on the dyno. Torque on that run was 405 and I do not know what the power was.....
VERY HAPPY.

I have no idea why the images don't show. They show everywhere else?

They lack a file extension. They don't show for me either (using FF).

Looks like there will be fun @ the track for you this year...
350WHP should get you into the mid-high 11's.

What octane were you using?
And... are you going to carry a spare transmission with you or do you have a strong one in already?

I think I read something about a JDM gearset in his case or something like that.
+1 what octane ?
400TQ sounds like C16 or alky injection....

92 octane with Torco and water/meth (washer fluid) injection.
I am going to buy some C-16 though and turn up the boost to 30+

Alky injection (W/Washer = meth+h2o) does wonders for TQ.
I use w-washer on my cars too, works good & you don't have to mix the stuff up + its cheap & cleans windows!
Are you planning on re-tuning the car for C16, or are you going to see how it runs as is??
