All this secrecy stuff is annoying but whatever.

I haven't seen you around much Kris. You been working hard on getn 'er done? You got the bumper reinforcements I assume. Installed 'em yet?

 

what secrecy?

 

that shouldn't be a problem, the engine bay is about as stock looking as it gets besides the battery...

 

"Secret Sauce IM." Secret usually implies secrecy. I undestand he is trying to make a profit on his discovery but d@mn.

 

Yeah. The info on his manifold would be worth more than the profit he would make I believe. I mean, what's not to say that the first SS Manifold he sells, that person tells everyone how it's done.. He probly won't get too many more sales after that.. Awesome run BTW SR

 

Sure if someone wants to spend the money on a spare manifold, pay me to do the work and then have to cut it open with a bandsaw and ruin it. Some people are relentlessly stupid like that.

 

......................

 

Everyone here has secrets

Motivation = Pioneering

 

Just keep it a secret. People who actually know how to build motors should already have a general idea.

 

I have a general idea of how it might be done

 

you cant be mad at that. you have to admit this is some incredible feat you pulled off with so little HP. i immediatley thought of juice and so will many other people who read this, but take it as a compliment for making us wonder.
if you said you went 14 secs nobody would give a dam#. i know people running 400 hp boosted and all with 12.8 times but if what you say is true it will come out eventually to be the truth or not. stay tuned.

 

stay tuned for what?

 

 

When you run 12s on all motor then we will stay tuned.....

Till Then I call on your jibberish

 

Yeah you're right. I can't blame all the non believers for not being able to pass 7th grade algebra. It isn't their fault they weren't blessed with IQs above 80.


I will list some logical reasons as to why anyone can make 400whp and only run a 12.8.

Vehicle is too heavy.
Vehicle only makes 400whp in owners dreams.
Vehicle has traction issues.
Vehicle makes 400whp only when side stepping the clutch on the dyno (spiking)
Vehicle has a very narrow powerband.
Vehicle gearing does not match well with narrow power band.
Vehicle driver is lacking in required skills to meet vehicle potential.


Now put yourself in my shoes for a second and try to imagine how I feel when I go to the dyno and the computer tells me I only made 263whp.
And again I'll mention I wasn't even driving the car to my or it's full potential when I made this pass. I have more left in me and it has more left in it as it sits right now.

 

All of you are gay in less than 12 seconds.

 

Why even bother to explain?

 

So, what's next SR?

I know you haven't ran out of tricks up your sleeve.

 

It's not like he'll tell all or anything. What he does, he does.

 

He tells MORE then enough already IMHO.

Just wondering if he's going to start playing with the N20, cams, FI, etc., or heaven forbid, he's done.

 

maybe he will stop driving in straight lines and start turning

 

I think he can fab a moped to hit 12's....a wizard usually can.......

 

I have plenty to do. I will just keep my mouth shut until each new thing is done.

Haterz when I tell, haterz when I don't.

 

I would have to add 100+ pounds back into the car and buy some real brakes to do that. Then I would still get pwnt by stock Minis and M3s. No thanks.

 

What is so hard to believe about this, he's only trapping 108, it's not like he trapped 115 or anything which would so huge power. 108 is right in line with what a 270whp 3100lb car should trap. I and a couple others have trapped 102 with like 75-90whp less... You guys who think he is spraying may be mentally handicapped.

 

They're jealous, I guess.

His next mod should be transplanting his powerplant in a stripped 1995 GXE 5-speed with no options and 9-pound 15-inch wheels

 

Well...I hope for Tomei cams soon, so you can keep pulling to 7500rpm.

 

don't forget people... delos aka sleeper ran 13.1 with a stock pulley SC 4th Gen years ago at etown.. that was about 240 fwhp

 

On slicks?

 

street tires

 

Cams will probably be the very last thing I do unless I find an awesome deal somewhere. The stockers will get me further than I have gone. And I still have the obese stock flywheel. I would love to have a Tilton 16 lb flywheel/clutch combo.

 

Do you have a link to the thread? I would love to see what was done to that car to get 13.1 on a sc with stock pulley.

 

Sorry i was wrong.. it was 13.3

Wow, that Tilton looks nice.......The 6 puck closely spaced like that should be a little more forgiving in terms of chattering. I like the fact that the flywheel is included in the package. Price isn't that bad considering what you're getting. I wonder if they make a 4 puck design....not that you'll really need it if the 6 puck, like the SPEC Stage III, is able to hold up to 500lb-ft Torque? I might have to look into that just for the lighter flywheel. Very nice man......

 

There's no winning so why even play the game? Just do what you do and who cares about the rest. If I could give you the cams for a decent deal, I would.

 

I just came up with a great idea that I bet no non believer will have the ballz to try.

This will be open to everyone who is willing to come to me, cash in hand, and call BS on my setup.

"I will take my entire engine apart for you to inspect. You stand by and watch carefully. You will have the right to look at EVERYTHING under the hood and inside the engine. If you find one single mod that isn't on this list (typed list I provide on site) I will pay you $2500. However after I prove to you that everything I said was true and everything I listed is here, nothing more, you owe me $2500. If you wish we can even do this on a day the track is open so you can witness the car in action and constantly inspect it. Then we proceed to the shop were you can watch me dismantle the engne."

Any takers? Put up or shutup.

 

Jesus christ man...

 

sounds good to me. im in. instead of 2500 lets just go for 10k, you know to make it worth my while. my question is how are going to "dismantle the engne"?

 

I'd like to place a side bet and make a little extra money. 5,000.00 for me please......no doubt that SR will prove you wrong, but I do doubt the intelligence of the person that takes up this offer....

 

Your total now comes to $10,050.
