I have no doubt it's in the 400's. How far in is the question.

I've seen other dyno sheets from just the regular stage 2 BNR's and the numbers that Stephen put down aren't far fetched at all. You shouldn't flame someone just because you're jealous bro!

Flaming..? I am not flaming Stephen at all as a matter of fact I agree with him about 99% of the time. Stephen isn't a bulls***** he is a straight up repectable guy. I am posting this for feedback...
Second, I am not jealous over a set of 1700.00 turbos...

Thanks man, I appreciate that. Your right, there is definatly enough BS around the forum so I never see the need to add to that lol

Its just like i said, thats what the dyno showed. I'm going to a second dyno to double check. I had a hard time swallowing it as well, I mean its a huge number at that boost level. I've been around the forum forever and dont talk BS. I didnt plan on telling anyone about my numbers I got till I visited another dyno to double check them BUT, it kinda got out so I had to say something lol

Hopefully the 2nd dyno will give the results we are all hoping for!!!!!

STEPHEN

crap, I told Rich I'd be impressed if he got 420!

it makes sense, though....turbo technology has come a long way since the Hitachi units in the stock FD in the early 90s

even if the average guy can hit 400 with them, it's still great news

hopefully Steve will give us all the details on his set-up

Gotta be real careful with patenting something while you're selling it to the public. There is a statutory bar on public use and sales; also there will be a problem with patenting in other countries due to an absolute novelty requirement.

Also, a patent is not a license to make things: it's a means to exclude people from making/using/practicing what you've defined in the claims of the patent by suing them in court.


Not legal advice here, but go see a qualified patent lawyer: it will cost you quite a bit to get a patent. Large corporations usually pay about $7K to $10K for a mechanical patent application to be filed, another $6K to battle with examiners, $2K to pay for it to issue (assuming it has met all statutory requirements for a temporary monopoly) and pay over the life of the patent term (20 years from filing date) of about $8K to maintain it in force.

Good luck, you'll need it to get a patent.
