the car made that power at the psi on video camera, I will give you my car. : I certainly wasn't looking for any smart ass from you, but as long as you feel compelled to throw some my way, let's chat. : You've got some great dyno numbers Pete, but just b/c your car didn't make that power at that boost level is certainly no reason to say it can't be done. I'd wager that if you saw a Z put down that power at 17 psi with a similar setup as yours, you would be pissed. That's ridiculous to get so personally caught up like that; it's a freakin' car and you certainly are not the end all be all of Z's, so give it a rest. : I for one can buy the SGP dyno numbers. Why??? Because of my own personal experiences with my own car. I had a shop here in Austin build it, and it was their first attempt at a Z car. The car would hardly idle, two cylinders ended up being overbored (compression around 100), and it put down 497.9 rwhp and 432.1 rwtq at 17 psi on a 100 degree June day here in Austin, Texas. Air fuel was below 10:1 from 5,700 rpm on up; quite rich. : Do I think it is plausible that on a 70 degree day with a healthy motor, 11.5 air fuel, and some cam gears for some fine tuning that 520-540 rwhp is achievable? Absolutely I do. : If you have anymore of your out of left field comments you'd like to share with me, feel free to e-mail me personally or we can chat on the phone. : Regards, : Bryan
