it seems just a tad faster video wise than stage 4 which is odd. but i think the stage 4 vids were done when it was cold out and sunday it wasabout 85 or 90 degrees and humid as hell, and i had a load of shit in my trunk to move into school haha. its on 20 psi boost. im prolly goin to soc now just so frank can play with it a bit to my liking.

if i accelerated that high in the rev range in third it would not be nice to the tranny thats why not plus the old vid was fourth gear so.

as for boost - its a bigger turbo guys...same oost = more air flow, so less oost still means more power. 20 is the meat of this turbos flow. although i think its a little low...plus it was 85 degrees. It goes past red, i boost 10 at like edge of red...trust me i have a gauge and know it was at 20.

someone wanna make a stock 60-100 vid for me?

I could make a 60-100 vid in 4th, but my car has a t25 and a 3" and intake. It puts out about 197hp and 235 lb/ft at the wheels which is pretty close to what a stock aero would do. I'll give it a shot, maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow night. If I don't go to jail then I'll post a vid ;-)

yeah the vids are proving to be quite awckward...which is why i want a stockvid. My stage 4 vid seems to match the stage 5 at 10 second or a little less 60-100 which isnt bad. but it just doesnt feel strong to me...dunno why...franks gonna look at it at soc

no offense but it looks slower than my stage 3 9-3 automagic.

I know your car is fast so it doesn't make sense. then I noticed the speedo numbers are laid out different than mine, so it is probably an illusion... ;)

The other thing is it doesnt seem to pull fast through the rpms, but I guess that's just the 9k Aero's long ass 4th gear coming into play lol :lol:

You'll have to take me for a ride in it at SOC....

yeah your car deffinately looks slower in that vid then it should be. I could make a stock vid in an automagic aero ;)

I should make a vid in my car for comparison because it looks like it could just be an illusion that its slow. You did that in 4th right?

cool vid!!! would definitely be alot quicker in diff gear but still enough to roast some rice!!!


ive tried acceleration vids but i cant spare the extra hand to hold the camera...steering wheel jumps too much.

yeah it will be getting checked out and hopefully frank will look at the sw.

but just so you guys know..its putting out over stage 4 power...which was 255whp...so whoever was making "im faster comments" is wrong

yeah i just noticed that it stalls at 90 for a second. it definetly pulls hard but...i dunno...this car never runs right. in all honesty i should have checked the back pressure...i could have clogged the race cat when it was so rich.

i guess we'll find out saturday...you get tuned yet matt?
