Can't wait to see a video of it idling. Car looks insane. What is your goal in the standing mile?

 

[lowell]

How about 229mph =)

 

[olmytsi]

Which event do you plan on debuting the car at?

They just had the Texas mile, there's one here in Miami this weekend and Ive heard theres one in NC sometime soon...I'm assuming that's the one you are shooting for?

Took the car to the dyno today, found the limits of e85 on my setup. Car made 832awhp 567tq at 38-39psi and 13* of timing peak. Air fuel in the mid to high 11s, we will go back and try again on e98 and if needed import. Should have more room to grow with more octane. Hitting the track next weekend!

Nice numbers. I forget are you running a 4294 or a 4202?

Says 4202r in his profile.

This is one of my favorite dsm's, congrats on the numbers, and good luck at the track

 

[JohnTSI]

He is correct 4202.

I had planned to run 45psi but had too much e85 in the tank to change the fuel.

 

[AWDnoobie]

The car is a beast... Its bin a while since ive looked at this thread. Keep up the great work and it will be interesting to see what happens with the e98

Not sure what you are asking? What exactly is it I am supposed to be scared of with the OEM belt? Its a woven cog belt, I don't see it being an issue but if you know something I do not feel free to share. We have always ran oem belts.
