what is the highest hp street FC?

Just wondering. Any mod list, but it has to be driven on the street at least oh i dunno, 50 miles a month for me to consider it a street car.
If nobody can beat 600whp on 93 octane, i gotta finish my tune, re-dyno, and start looking for some sponsors. I figure my setup is good for ~700whp on pump gas if i dont break the eshaft, but i never thought that was enough for anyone to be interested...

Only reason I post this is I was disappointed in the turnout on my 500+ HP club thread.

I personally drive mine, but I dont have the highest HP. With the new turbo setup, I will probably push 600, but honestly, I am about done chasing numbers.

I could give a **** less about numbers, but I'm broke and if this thing is gonna hold together I gotta put new axles and a subframe under it. And I realized I havent heard of anyone with more power. If I am the dyno queen of street FCs, I oughtta be able to get someone to sponsor the car, right?

Not a whole lot of aftermarket support for our cars these days from big companies, but I would think you should be able to find a sponsor! It seems you've built the best purebred street FC out there, so that'd be worth sponsoring to someone.

Any of you guys mess with traction control for your rides. How do put down 500+HP to the ground?

I'm only putting down 200HP or so which is enough for me.

They are out there, there just aren't many. Sponsors are hard to get. The answer to your question is typically 500wHP to 600wHP, btw. By that I mean there are a handful of those. Dunno what the highest is.

its not that i think people will sponsor it because of the power, but you need something to make it remarkable. If you can tell people 'most powerful FC' then that makes it seem like they are putting their names on something special.

I'd love to race it, but I don't have the money to invest in it to make it competitive. I could turn up the boost and make 700whp for free. Racing would mean $3k worth of driveline parts

Go look up dynamic image generation, the amount of information sent in a HTTP get request, and the concept of "Reverse DNS lookups."

just curious, what kind of injection are you running to handle that kind of power on "pump gas"?

Definately a shop car. Drag race setup. But still answers your question, one of most powerful street FC in canada/us.

probably the most powerful, i doubt there is anyone else anywhere near there.

i am running a ltx12s with 1680 secondaries

ps MPS needs to learn how to spell! I was gonna let it slide when they spelled inconel wrong, but they spelled Wankel wrong on their products page!

I think all dyno numbers should be followed by a 1/4 run. If the power can not be put to the ground then it's useless, just my opinion.
