Im sure we can all appreciate great horsepower whether its a mustang or not so thought Id share a cool video of something that came through shop tonite.

Heres a little peek at some preliminary low boost #'s. THESE ARE NOT the final #'s they wont be public but these are ok to post. These are from a mustang dyno as you can tell by how long the pull lasts.

This is a small block turbo car. We dialed in the tune tonite and will be hitting the track soon to get some time trials and loads of datalogging info.

that was 900 ft lbs of torque :-p it made 1167hp heh

update your windows media player and should play fine once you do

customer ok'ed me to post this graph but asked that I reveal very little as far as details go sorry have to respect the mans wishes.

All i can say is its a small block, turbo, and that was low boost :p

next time we goto farmington I'll post up in advance hopefully in enough time.

Last time we took this car to the track, its a monster. Its a small block, turbo, and giggle juice, plate and fogger :worship:

Aaron tuned this car and its gonna be top contender. He ran within .06 of the class record on a 100* day with shitty track prep :worship:

Next year hes gonna have it retuned, gonna run a pure alcohol setup. Talk about something that takes tons of expertise to tune. It will have 20 total injectors on the motor, and everything has to be on the money. When hes done with it ill put $100 down on table that says that man can get in the car and drive it to the gas station and buy him a cold one!

First hit at Farmington car went 5.19 @ 142mph. That was on 25lbs of boost and we'll most likely go upto 30lbs. Car should go in the 4's pretty easy.

142 mph doesn't seem fast enough for that time :dunno: I know a guy that does the 1/4 in 6.5 and I was sure he was running over 200 mph, I could be wrong though...I don't really know enough about track times...
