| altitude / locations / and conditions apply to dragracing plus the unknown driver element ..at least with dynos ( unless it is a dynoqueen setup ) the dynos ( assuming same type ..ie: dynojet ) can be SAE corrected so that you have a more apples to apples comparison than timeslips or butt dyno ..bottom line is that you don't agree or see it my way ..which is fine and you have the right to think and say what you want to be it right or wrong --a lot of folks here thought I was smoking crack when I said I could get 600rwhp with my setup ......now I have dyno proof of rwhp and torque to back up my original claims of 600rwhp on a sport 600 car .. I continually make the statement that you disagree with that a tuned sport 600 car will make more power and will cost less to do it than a sport 530 car with the same mods and tuning ...now you want to see dragracing timeslips and videos to support that statement ..this type of proof is ridiculous ....I will throw it out there that I have the highest rwhp sport 600 Z out there at this time ....I will agree that the boost response on a sport530 Z with the inconels is awesome / great ..but my point is that the sport 600 with the inconel setup will have boost lag similar to stock, with an increase in power over a sport 530 setup, and with a lower cost to modifiy. This is surely preferred by most people who want bang for the buck .. now if the goal is to autocross or road race ..then peak power is not preferred and a quick powerband setup would be the way to go --which means sport530bb with inconels and tuning with race gas would be the way to go for a setup ... just my 2 cents ...bottom line --I did my car the way I wanted regardless of some very reputable opinions here and got exactly what I thought I would get power wise and have the dynos to prove it ... below is the post by the way that I made pre-dyno -- La-Z-Link I have only seen Seb's car produce in the neighborhood of 520rwhp on sport530bb .... Z1 can support this statement that most sport530bb cars dont produce more than 500rwhp..
but for argument's sake --lets say that Seb's car was the norm .. I still have a decent curve of rwhp and torque compared to his curve and I have 75 more rwhp and I spent the same if not less money on the setup ... La-Z-Link
