Yeah. I did mean 787 whp. I should be making a little more than 700 whp with my other mods. Any idea what kind of HP that equals to? Thanks.
i think you mean 787 whp and that was on 100 oct race gas and custom tune

... on 93 oct pump gas and canned tune, alpha 9 only makes about 680-700 whp per ams email to me

Turbo bridge is the short pipe that's the first exhaust pipe after the turbo, and that pipe is then connected to the downpipes.
Most exhausts retain the stock turbo bridge

Thanks for the cleaification. Yes I have the stock turbo bridge.

Wow, Goletiani, you are the man! This thread reminds me of my late teens when I was totally into building hot rods. I found this thread searching for info on the Weistec W.4 package. So, any updates from Weistec on when it will be available?

Do update from Weistec so far. They cant even tell when it is going to be ready. the engine is assembled and waiting for its lungs ) I am very curious about the outcome after 1 year of waiting.

Goletiani, did u finish your W4 project? Im about 7 months into my build and weistec has been a nightmare. Have you been able to get yours running properly?

Let me guess they tell you you'll have your parts ready in 2 weeks and when you ask them 2 months later they tell you two weeks? Another month goes by and after avoiding your calls and emails you finally get through to them and they tell you 2 weeks?

yeah in a nutshell. The first shop that installed my w4’s didnt grind down the timing cover for clearance. It wasnt clearly outlined in the installation instructions that are provided with the kit. So now the car is @ eurocharged due to my turbo manifolds warping. Eurocharged is going to re install the new manifolds. The original manifolds were sent back to weistec to be re machined to spec. I was told that one was beyond repair. So my original mechanic paid for a new manifold to be welded and sent out. Once the two manifolds arrived, the one that was supposed to be fixed, wasnt. So now i had to buy a new manifold and its been 2.5 months of deliberation and tomorrow eurocharged is finally supposed to get new the manifolds and turbos. I just hope this thing makes power.

Nobody has ran the W4 down the quarter mile and told the story. I issued a challenge for them and any w4 the beat time slipped I got with 780whp, to determine if their hp claim is true or lie. I've been posting Time Slips all summer, nothing from weistec.
