Black benz u r the "MAN" ,, and thanks for the updates and info on your motor build with the Weistec S/C. Please post your dyno#'s when u get them . 9's you will definitely see your already trapping a 9 sec mph in the 1/4. I've often wondered what these engines can really do when their really built for power and durability.

Thanks I don't really do the whole dyno thing but if I do put it on to tweak the tune I will post the numbers. Yea it's making the power to run 9s, I just need to put it down. This is just the beginning. One day of testing. If you go turbo like RBJ I could see making over 1000hp (assuming tuning). My current tune bleeds off any boost above 17psi. Before I was making over 20psi.

Yea, I have a cf hood. Also, I drove the car to and from the track by myself so I removed the passenger seat in order to fit everything I needed in the car. There is additional weight in other places so it's pretty much a wash. But yes I removed some weight with the cf hood and removing passenger seat. Still have power steering, AC, radio,stock battery, etc etc

Is this intentional because of the MAP sensor, or something you will change?

Due to the MAP sensor. The car goes into limp mode and requires the key cycle to reset. He could run is at 20psi but would constantly be resetting so I think a consistent 17psi is a much better approach. That is.. until he map clamps and goes for 1.5bar gage

Wicked man, well done! I expected you would be showing high trap speeds and 143 at the end of a quarter mile shows how much ***** your beast really has.
9's...? Easy peasy.

Have a friend that was working with AEM but he wanted everything to work and was taking A LONG TIME. If you are willing to let go of convenience features then it's possible

Easy 9s, not even a question. Your trap speed is crazy. You're quicker than a Veyron in the quarter mile The SLR that did 9.7 has a lower trap speed than you.

Then you can forget about 9s. I know manual is fun to drive and is "more involving" *eyes rolling* but it's slower when it comes to drag racing. These engines just aren't right with a manual gearbox. Imagine a manual Veyron. Not even Lewis Hamilton could shift faster than an auto.
