Needs a rear JDM bumper now.

Here's what it looks like if you haven't seen one before. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

For some reason, everytime Mark posts that pic, I picture 1051 start to begin rolling down the hill, slowly gaining momentum with Mark in chase.

Thanks guys, It's a night and day difference now, it's actually kinda scary to stay into it on the road lol. But yeah got 424 and 363 tq to the wheels on 22 pounds of boost using 93 pump gas on a very conservative tune. And my boost creep issue is gone now due to just simply raising the boost a bit. Only change from last time is a Walboro 450 and a re-wire kit. Samara has never been this quick before and I love it!

Now I'm ready to start our 23+ hour drive road trip to the shootout in 18 more days, josh that looks gorgeous dude, hope your bringing it to the shootout this year.

And mark that's an amazing pic, what kind of camera did you use to take that?

I told you that upping the boost would clear up the creep issue. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif Running big turbos at 11psi is a waste anyway. Once the fuel system is ready to handle the extra flow needed for E85 it will be a monster.

I'm not sure what camera. My buddy Matt Poppoff took the pic, as well as most other ski pics and stuff I've posted over the years. He uses Nikon bodies, but I'm not sure which lens on this one or which exact body he uses now. He has a bunch of different lenses.

Brett, I had that thing in first gear with the e-brake on. That hill starts getting steeper just a bit in front of the car. I'd be running after it for sure if it started rolling though. Yeesh.

Mike, congrats, told you with those injectors would make more power on pump /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

mark, pretty sure if that was within the last three years or so, that would be a Nikon D800.

coyote, what's your point about third gear? It's the correct gear to dyno a mitsu... Fourth is wicked weak and an overdrive (.89 iirc)

How is is possible that a thread for Mike has more pictures of 1051 & 1772 than of 550? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

As of late I see more pic's of 1051 than 550 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Mike once you get that turbo making over 25 PSI I swear it will become a completely different animal!!

We just dynoed my brothers Evo III @23 PSI 94 Pump made 420 whp & 380ft/lbs, After we kept adding more boost for every 1PSI we added we netted around 18WHP. Needless to say by the end of the night it made 550WHP & 450ft/lbs @30PSI on just 94 Pump. So anything after 25PSI on that turbo of yours becomes a completely different animal!!! If you think your car if fast now just wait /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Oh ya it's the same turbo just in a .82 T4 housing.

Actually just after we finished with the dyno, We race a Lamborghini LP-560 and made that thing look like it was standing still /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif Probably pulled a good 10 car lengths on him, considering he did get quite the jump on us as well /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

stock transmission? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jawdrop.gif



Yes sir. Stock transmission, transfer case and stock 4 bolt axles. Mike's car is going to start breaking more than a union employee

My thoughts exactly!

All kidding aside it's good to see these results considering all the past drama....

You did post new pics of your car on the dyno in your thread yesterday though. Just sayin'... At least it wasn't pics of oil jugs. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hsugh.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
