Not that active on the board, but have followed most of builds.
Nice job with getting everything put together so quickly and getting it to work. Good luck with getting some well deserved monster numbers!

You forgot to tell them that your monitor is this large:
So, what's the plan now? More tunes from Weistec?
Working coast to coast sucks with the time zones. It's lunch time for you when they get to the office and by the time they get going pretty good, it's 5 o'clock for you.

Oh yes, that was just the first tune put in the car. BIP is currently getting our other customers weistec kit on his e55 that is running Saturday too. Juggling between the two cars, and working with Weistec we will get it knocked out.
He has a very similar setup to me, that kit went on just as easy as mine. Straight bolt on, fire up and start tuning. The blower also whines very nicely at full tilt

This came together so quickly, I'm glad to see you are on schedule for this weekend. So just some fine tuning and practice launching the new setup? You're almost there...lol What type of 1/2 mile times are you expecting? I guess the final tune will be a much better indicator of the cars capabilities. I'm looking forward to the videos. Maybe I'll see that beast at MIR.

We are excited to get Craig up and running properly. We just finished up a similar setup in house that made great power.
Mods include:
Weistec M113K Supercharger System
Weistec Cold Air Intake Option (SL55 Model)
82mm Throttle Body Upgrade
Weistec Trunk Ice Tank
Weistec Dual Pass Heat Exchanger
Weistec TCU Upgrade
Mid length headers / high flow cats
100 Octane for added safety on stock motor
15psi at redline
We purposely tapered the power up top to keep stock internals in tact however we can easily hit 700HP at the wheels if it had our internals. Cheers guys!

Damn, look at that torque "curve". I wonder how far down the rpm range you'd have to go to really see less than 500 ft-lbs. Reminds me of the saying "my car makes more torque at idle than yours does at its peak."

We are nearing the completion of one more 55K that includes our complete array of engine parts and a custom set of cams. It should do real well. We look forward to posting results!

Wow!!! Those are rather imposing numbers on a 55k with the mods listed ... and how impressive is the torque curve - certainly shows the potential of the Weistec blower

Tuning commences today on my sled and we start on Chris Weistec e55. I will update as data comes in homeys
Should see some spray numbers too!!
Yeah, the tq curve is nice a flat across the rpm range. Big displacement blowers like these are known for it.
