Jim, you might be able to help with my Q. Can you get the TCU tune for the standard gearbox?? If so will there be any benefits or is it for the built box only?

Thanks

I agree with the data but as for now all we can do is sit and wait unless we do it ourselves, od have it done and out on the track but I'm recently poor

JR - It was a 767-300ER not a 737....

Dodger - I know very little about most things but if I know I am right look out!!!

VaclavSV - no worries as I know you are curious. The hanger had a GIV which has since been upgraded to a GV.

I think that Keith has said it best and is the voice of reason. I just wanted to get a rise out of propain which obviously worked!

Anyways, off now - will chat after easter.

Takes a lot more to get a rise out of me. I think it was the other way around.

GIV is a sweet plane. I have had the pleasure in flying in one a few times. What year? With the price of that toy alone I wonder why you would bother messing with a scrap like the CLK BS. Sky is the limit for you it would seem. No pun intended.

I honestly don't know the answer to that question, if I knew I would tell you. I would just give Weistec a call and tell them exactly what you're looking for and see what they say. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

There you go again talking when you shouldn't. Scrap LOL. Here's a list of prefesional car racers that own or owned a CLK BS, keep in mind these guys can drive anything they want and race some of the fastes cars in the world. Tony Kanaan, Juan Montoya, Micheal Andretti, Chip Ganassi, Dale Earnhardt Jr, Kurt Busch, David Coultard, Graham Rahal, Bobbby Rahal.

Also FYI, Earl owns a 599, fhe CLK is just one of his toys. Don't judge a book by its cover.

This is not a statement but rather a question:
Everyone with a Weistec SC would you still say that they are in a (advanced) development phase?
(if not, i would imagine that they would be all over it by now.)

Some people would love some more hard data on the track / strip / street.

Now as for the bickering..
The lack of more detailed data will make some people question generalized facts. There is and should be nothing wrong with asking for it. Some people love some high level numbers and some love the details.

Please guys understand that people are different and when you attack them for their choice/approach in validating what is important to them, thats when things get derailed on both sides.

Its pointless to poke at a wasps nest, even if you have a bee suit on.
the only ones winning is the bee keeper!

ps. yes its late night and I am enjoying a few Ardbeg 25yo's.

are you asking about advanced development of the M156 2.3L blowerr? If that is your question they are well beyond the advanced development stages, they are now developing and close to releasing the 3.0L unit that has been being developed on Earls and my car this winter. Their stage 1 and stage 1 plus are solid proven systems available now.

Jr will the 3.0l blower need the forged pistons and rods? I'm assuming @10+ psi yes?

No, not for 10 psi, stock internals will work just fine. I believe the stock internals can handle even more boost than that with the 3.0L on stock internals but again, confirm all of this with Weistec. As I stated earlier in this thread Earls car racked up several miles over the winter with the 3.0L with stock internals and the new transmission. It was not until Feb. that my motor was built and then the entire package(3.0L, internals,trans, etc.) was road tested all together. I am running significantly higher boost than 10psi . Earl and I are pushing things to the limit so we wanted to cover all the bases.

My car has been rolling around southern California since late Febuary with this trans, the 3.0L blower and a fully built motor (pistons, rods, etc.) making even more HP and TQ than Earls was. Now that the entire package has been proven on my car the engine internals are being installed in Earls cars. Mike and Steve at Weistec are methodical and if I do say a bit **** about everything they do, trust me when I say this system has been thoroughly tested or you would not be reading about it or seeing it for sale on their web site.
Don't you mean 2.9L?

The stock 63 motor is pretty friggin badass to hold as much power as it does IMO. Taking a 200 shot after full bolt ons and cams is not small feat.

Can't wait to see what your car does at the track!
