whats the highest hp dynoed maxima?
sorry i did a search i just want to know FOR THE RECORD .....whats the highest hp officially dynoed maxima? what is the record? i herd it was around 500 -/+
like i said i did a search 1st i would just like to know this info also with the dyno chart if its still avail. or thread thanx sorry if this is the wrong section but i would think a boosted max is gona be the highest hp.

I'd could have sworn Hal (hlh) had higher number like 500s and 600s in torque, but what I found was "476.6whp + 505.9tq" from him. thats till I dyno my car

You seem to be making a lot of predictions about your car lately dude...
Anyways, I swear I remember that too, but I have not been able to find a post or sheet. Of course this was years ago, and I can't believe that I'd just take someone's word for it without seeing a sheet, but for the life of me I can't find the higher one.

That being said, I never saw a slip for it. I would venture to say if Mardi had ever dynoed with the setup when he trapped 130mph his would have been the highest. I think he went to the track twice and broke 4th gear twice and then parted out.
I trapped 122mph with only 431whp and a bunch less torque due to the supercharger. 476hp/505tq should have been alot faster than 125mph, but there are many other variables so it might be legit.
Stats:
11.9 @ 124.9mph with 1.88 60' low boost (11/7/04)
538whp 603tq (10/15/04)
High 400's on conservative pump gas tune

That's the thing when you're spraying but not for the entire run. Vast differences in power from gear to gear, Hal only sprayed 3rd and 4th iirc, and who knows how his setup compared when he did his 476/501 dyno to when he ran 125mph, I think they were done quite a while apart and he was always changing stuff so I don't think one can make a comparison between his dyno and his trap speed.
A fourth gen of typical weight with a good driver and a good launch making 450/450 (in all gears I mean) should be able to trap about 127ish mph by my estimation.
Even when mardi trapped 130, that was still spinning a ton, thus a lot of wasted mph. Had he run slicks that day he probably could have trapped 132-133 I'd bet. 11.99 @ 130 on DRs is probably spinning 1/3 of the track. It's a bummer he never got to make a clean pass on slicks with that sort of power. Broken 3rd and then 4th back to back and I understand his desire to move on to other things.

its gona be an amazing event . we have 500 parkin spots and we have 300 spots already "confirmed" and thats the internet ppl ....we handed out 5000 flyers!

it always seems like for EVERY great build the owner cheaps out on one thing. weather it be full slicks or eng. management etc etc. something perfect is missing
also thanx to the others who answered the question. thats some very very tuff #'s to beat!
I agree, it's really hard to put all the pieces together and make it work when it counts, when you're pushing things so far. Good luck on your dyno, would be sweet to see some official 500+ numbers in a maxima.
Yeah, its not simple or cheap to get big number, specially considering most maxima guys dont really have the $ of say the Z or G guys, which have higher HP builds left and right. Theres a few builds going on, and hopefully in the near future we'll see bigger numbers from the org. I myself am praying that everything goes well, my weakpoints are HR head bolts and the Auto (who knows at what power it will give up completely, we'll see). Might be putting in the bigger turbo tomorrow and get it tuned through the week as I drive it.

Once you have a high powered maxima you won't want it anymore, because the limitations of the chassis really show up. I really enjoyed myself at the time, but I wish I had some of my time and money back. I had more fun and loved my car the most when it was only 3.5 swapped. Then I got greedy with power and looking back I didn't enjoy the car as much anymore. Its not a great car to have more than 350hp in my opinion.

come on dude from what i've read about you you hav alot of knowledge and you save on the labor part. dont cheap out on head bolts u could do it over or correct that little flaw. gl with your build i really think 12's on a maxima was 2009 we have grow as a community and in knowledge & should all as hp freaks be in the 11's.
the event is this saturday the 20th @ lincoln tech in queens, whitestone. u could google it theres only one in NY queens

well everyone c's things differently. ppl say the rods are good for 450 then others say oh no its jsut the rod bolts. idk personally after all the debate i might as well just change the rods when your doing that u might as well change the pistons. if ur upgrading all that then u might as well do the head bolts but to each his own every1 has their own opinions, then i also herd from a performance shop that builds these motors frequently the hr headgasket is perfect for anything under 700. i rather not take words from ppl and just get the parts that were made to OVER handle the handle JUST ENOUGH. i'm not tryin to make a debate about it everyone does their own study's and show what they learned. we all just learn off each other.

i could say tomorow "yo i did 600hp" & i should just have the title of highest hp? i hope ur friend posts up his dyno and shows everyone if he does decide to come out. nothing wrong in askin for proof. they bashed the kid who is doing the rb swap then he revealed the pic's everyone changed they story! lol
no one will cry bullish unless he just says hey guys i did 575...thats y i asked "whats the highest dynoed max" i just want to see proof as everyone else would.
