Very nice. When you taking the new beast to the track?!

Mellon Tuning · Oct 11, 2008, 07:40 PM

not sure yet...I was going to do a quick g-tech run to see how it's looking compared to before but I split a boost hose wide open hah...never seen that one before. it still made 27psi with a 1" long gash.

I'm probably going to wait until the next midnight madness here which is when they open at 8pm and run until midnight. That will be me more time after work to get prepared. I think there's one on the 17th

serious power!!

Mellon Tuning · Oct 11, 2008, 08:13 PM

I probably should mention that these pulls are done on flat ground in 3rd gear...it would probably make more in 4th but I don't like stressing it that hard many times and the speeds get way too fast for the road.

Wow, way to go Mellon!! Very nice numbers on pump gas indeed.

Nice, so you plan on getting it up to 9k yet though? Crank the boost up

I'm not going to spin it to 9k just to say I did...I'm going to wait until I need to to keep from banging the rev limiter in 4th before crossing the beams. Crank the boost up?

it's on my very long to do list. got a few new boost leaks to fix first, ,keep burning the rubber vac hose near the header, need to find me some silicon hoses are ricerzone tomorrow. Also that licp hangs so low I tore a t-bolt clamp off

I'm sick of blowing that two piece pipe apart. I asked BR about making a one piece licp while back but they weren't game so I'm going to take it to a friend an have him weld the two halves together to put that to an end.

It's just a matter of having time to do it, this weekend has been jam packed with stuff to do.
