Just got the car back after having the Eurocharged longtubes mounted on the car. They sound phenomenal! The car has a 175mm pulley, H/E replacement, IC pump, longtubes and a standard Jerry tune. Going to get a custom tune the next time he's up in Dallas for sure!

Both original and after mods pulls were while the car was extremely heatsoaked. Will try to get a better pull when the car is cooler.

Made 372 originally, and 476 after the mods. These were both 4th gear pulls. Do you guys normally use 3rd, as 4th gets damn close to 200mph. This was on a DynoJet 224.

nice numbers for a 175

We've had some disputes lately but I have always dyno'd in 4th. Lotta guys cut out a tick early in 4th as she is not gonna be making peak hp or torque over 6000rpm.

When we were trying to get to 700hp down in Cali, they kept dynoing in 3rd and finally I screamed DYNO THE F*(&_IN THING IN 4TTTHHHHH!!!!!!

Came back, "HUH, she pulled more hp when we dynod in 4th"

abrim

Haha!! I bet everyone loved you after that!

We ran it both in 3rd and 4th on the dyno, made 485 in 3rd (still heatsoaked) but I only quoted the 4th gear pull as it matches the 4th gear pull done when I originally got the car, so the graphs overlay correctly!

Worth the wait

102 whp from a pulley, tune and LT's.....very nice!

abrim

Thanks man! What are python tubes that I keep hearing about? (noticed it in your sig)

Also would an airbox with better filters help out at all? I'm on stock filters and airbox currently!

Thanks

nice numbers! i think before getting a carbonio airbox you should get a 82mm TB. Awesome collection you car you have there

Good numbers, dynojet though..I suggest getting retuned on dyno to your current mods. How do you like the 55 compared to your viper?

chawkins2001

Nice numbers man. I think the best gear for a pull is 3rd since we did mine in 4th and like you said the pull takes too long and almost hits 2 bills. The car was really heat soaked after that long pull.

I bet that Viper is way more raw, you can't really compare it. I ran a viper in my 04 E55 stage 2, and he was fighting to keep the thing straight while I just pulled from the dig. I am waiting, as one day I will own the 08 Viper 600HP animal from the factory. You can only really take that car to it's max if you are a skilled driver, I am correct in my assumption Abrim?

abrim

Thanks for the compliments guys!

As far as comparing the viper and e55, they are 2 completely different animals. The viper is, as you said, extremely raw and unforgiving, that car will kill you if you don't know what you're doing. It is a very brutal car, and nothing (read: NOTHING) like a Z06 or anything of that nature. A z06 is very easy to drive and controllable and has traction control and a load of other electronic babysitters, the viper is drive by cable, no traction control or anything, the only electronic aid it has is ABS.

I drove the viper around stock for a while, then had it supercharged (made 711rwhp), then dropped a built 522 in it and made around 900rwhp, now it's currently in the shop getting twin turbo'd. Aiming for (with the MoTeC ECU) 1100rwhp pump gas and around 1500rwhp on C16.

The e55 is my daily driver so I'm taking it pretty easy in that car, and don't want to do any mods that would affect the reliability too much. I need a car that will get me A to B in comfort and quickly.

Good #'s Andy. I had no doubt you'd be happy when you told me you picked up the Eurocharged inventory lol.

When are you and Alisha coming down to Houston? Poopra Nationals?

E55Dimon

Doing it big abrim! Doing it big.

abrim

For sure man, so glad you recommended Eurocharged for me, Jerry has been a gigantic help and always been there to answer my questions.

I'm coming down for 2k11 for sure, doubt Alisha will come down though! I'm probably just going to bring the e55 down there, don't think the viper will be done, and the camaro will probably break/overheat/implode somewhere on 45 haha!

Going to be a great time though for sure, you staying at the Omni or just chilling at your house? Probably going to head down on the thursday, we should all do dinner etc

abrim

In case anyone wanted to see any pics of the viper, this was a shoot I did for ADV.1 wheels.

BenzoDoc

Maybe you can convince her to come if I can get Katie to come. Katie would be headed down on Friday though.

I've got an apartment in the Med Center but my house is in Memorial which is closer to the action. I'm not sure at this point how much I'll be able to attend as thats about a month and a half before my licensing exam, but I'll definitely roll out with people during "night" events.

I can definitely put you up in my house if you haven't booked the Omni yet. I've got a car trailer if you break your shi.t, so if you'll have more fun in the Maro, bring it!

You might have to drive us though, I'm getting 2x wrist surgeries on the 7th and I'm not sure how I'll be doing a week out. And your beast is faster.

I'm not the biggest advocate of driving around with tons of new mods without a retune, but if you can make it a month I bet Jerry'd retune you when you're down here. On his dyno even.

BenzoBoi

So that is yours? I remember drooling over it. Absolutely stellar ride my friend!

As for the E55, great numbers. As others have recommended, I would opt for the 82MM TB next. Enjoy the beast!

Yacht Master

Your zo6kla is tight, I like the color or lack of. Very respectful numbers from the 55, and in the 722. 4th is directed 1:1 and IMHO the most accurate.

abrim

Ok cool man, I will speak to her about it for sure! She would be much happier knowing another female would be there haha!

Already booked the omni, my friend got a corporate rate so it was stupid cheap for the weekend, really appreciate the offer though! The camaro would be cool as ****, but no radio no AC no comfort would be a ***** on the drive down, and I honestly don't think it would make it down there, let alone a weekend of racing and the drive back up haha!

Would be happy to drive you man! No worries at all! You could mount a camera to your cast :P haha

Yeah I already have the tune for the mods on there, but was going to get Jerry to do a custom tune when I see him. Going to be great! Maybe squeeze even more hp out of it!

tbal

Your viper is SICK! Love the look of the coupe.

My buddy has a viper (stock) and took me for a spin, even though its 500hp, which is close to the e55 but it feels like it has more power because it is so raw... One word to describe it would be scary.

I didn't feel safe in that car lol, it would be satans fav car

Rust bucket

Insane Viper

novae500

great #s fom your mods and tune. Sick viper pics !!

pullejo

Love the wheels on the viper in that shoot...

Vanquish59

I had mine dynoed recently on a dynojet.
Stock looked to be bringing 370whp.

I added a eurocharged tune only. I was pulling strong 400whp.

I'm thinking if i go with your mods I'd probably get the same. Just wanted to know why you went with 175mm instead of 172mm?

Carbonio

Why not get both? Our intake plays nice with the 82mm throttle body.
