James what pic was that?

Well I drove that guys car with the frank 4 and Accel DFI, and all I can say is damn its fast! For a big turbo like that I gotta say it does spool very quickly. I didnt even get to 3rd gear (I was too scared) 20psi boost it was on. I gotta drive it again and this time pay more attention to the rpms, or watch him drive it. I did remember it didnt take very long for the external wastegate to open up (loud). At one point, this bus driver pulled up to us, and opened his door and yelled at as about what kinda exhaust we had

nevermind, now I see it.

Those are some pretty impressive #'s
I watched all the videos you posted and therye great.
So if I remember it was JE pistons , eagle rods (extreme?)
and the 20g.

Do you plan on getting bigger axles since thats alot of power oyuve added? driveshaftshop axes

You said in one of your videos, the clutchmasters stage 4 felt like nothing. What were you comparing it to? ACT 2600? That and the 6 puck clutch are the only aftermarket clutches ive driven, but I do want to get the clutchmaster stage 4. Hows that compare to Centerforce stage 3 (its much cheaper)

haha yeah. thats exactly what that is. i made that dyno graph from a program called dyno 2000 engine simulation. its ####in cool. you can build a motor to the exact specifications of what your motor is. it will show you what it will do to your hp and torque ratings. very cool shit. it can help you plan out how to get maximum hp out of your ride. Unforutnatly it doesn't have like hahn turbos or anything, but i chose one thats damn close to mine.

Ill post a scren shot in a sec.

15.6? no, i ran a 14.6, which still isnt very impressive, but that was at our very high elevation here.. 2nd, your car does 15.6 stock? lol.. ya, sure.. 3rd, very nice setup you have there, 20g is nice..
4th, quit acting like an asshole all the time.. be sure not to blow this turbo up.. (they require clean oil with the correct fittings) good luck, dont break anything on that 10sec. ride. =)

Why the beef Bd1000? This is a cool thread, and I'm learning alot, I dont want it locked.


James keep up the good work , dont let people bring you down I say.

Now I see why 2GNT people stay away from this site.
I dont understand the feud between 4G63's and 420a's

AND I own both cars!

why don't you go re-read this thread. then after you realize how you acted, don't bother posting in it again. lets keep this on topic.

James, why didnt you get the eagle extreme rods that Gary sells? Arent they more durable, especially if youre going to use high boost?
Its strange that Howell doesnt give you that many choices for pistons/rods, and he knocked the hell out of the Pauter rods, saying theyre as strong as stock. Not sure about that comment.

Here you go, being a dick again, jee, I thought you could act like a normal person for a few posts but I guess I should have known better. Thanks for the info. Oh, and nice one changing your posts, as usual. I dont think you car runs 14.6 stock, hell you'd be lucky if it ran that now, 15k later, haa. See you around champ.
