ok so i have some time to bring this thread back to life. it kinda hard to remember so far back so im gonna do my best.
Thanks Viper for the complements.
Well the build before Banzai Racing was at A-spec tunning and they did all the work on my last build. I was told by one of the guy's at a-spec that i needed to run dual pumps. for my 35r setup i belived them cuz well i was Rotary retarded back then.
Banzai fixed one of the 1000's wrongs
anyway they fixed the pump problem deal......
i think my car was pretty much complete around this time. and the only thing holding me up was. my break calipers that i had ruined. MAn i have learned a bunch.
And just so we have it clear Banzai fixed every wrong and made my car Damn near perfect.( I say damn near because we haven't finished the tuning.)
I just keep touching **** it breaking it haha.
Sooooooooo i picked up the car on 08 around thanksgiving or the day before.
man i remeber that drive and how LOUD the FD was with just straight pipe. i had a forgotten about that.
Drove to my friends house in the freezing cold and washed our cars.
my self and the car.
meet up with my buddy Gabe and his FC
then drove to a meet. to a meet.
another buddy of mine snapped these the same night downtown chicago
Well the trip was short lived and i had to travel back to AZ for work the car wouldn't make it down to Az until February BLAH that was the worst.
So in the mean time my old business partner and i drove around in this since we worked and lived together wasn't really an issue. we drove the Vegas one weekend in this and we took turns driving picked up a friend in Kingmen AZ who followed us to vegas and decied to top this ****** out at 178 which was the fastest i had ever been. MUST BUY A VETTE !!!!

Finally my FD made it out to AZ.
First thing i notice when i see the FD is it's missing a headlight cover. so i ask the truck drive whats up with that and he's all like it was never on their so i called a friend who delivered the car and he tell me yea it wasn't on.... so im all like WTF whatever. (turns out my friend was retarded it was but by that time i had signed all the papers. )
well after the car was released to me started driving the car up to my house from where the guy dropped it off which was less than 1000yards.
ANNNNNNNNDDDDD OF Course my old *** rude ******* neighbor came over to yell at me about the car being TOO LOUD and the car died....So for next day or something like that i wasn't able to do **** to the car so it sat until i could unflood the bastard.
my buddy Aj stopped by who was visiting his parents from chicago and took this wonderful picture of me having a good time..... i have no idea why i was barefoot. haha
pushed the car for the car out so i could wash it.
one of my fav shots
so that night my friend and his evo and my buddy Aj driving his dad Rentech tuned SL55 and my room mate and his Vette decided to hit the mountain since my **** was flooded.
This is after a good romping up the mountain.
my bud evo my room mates vette and my buddy aj and his dad Renntech SL55 that bad boy moves.
Touge battles we ran that night.
So the next day which was friday i think THESE BAD BOY'S came in.
Shaboing boing boooooing

Hey man just want to clarify two things. You made it seem like you were not pleased that aspec tole you to use two pumps. Was it unnecessary or did it screw something up? Also did you break the calipers by taking them apart? Just trying to learn from past mistakes. Thanks

Took the Wheels off to clean the insides out
some friends and i decided to cruise up Mt. lemmon.... Well it was more like they ditched me since my car was only on a base tune.
some random shots of my friends tailgating me.
Made these vid at the top of mt.lemmon of me pulling off.
http://youtu.be/xggE7BLa8sA
Snapped these with my room mate after leaving the gym or some ****.
After these picture my chassis harness decided to fall onto the wheel and rubbed right through it rendering it pretty much useless and after a string of shitty things going on in my life I ended up moving back to Chicago. DAMN IT WAS GOOD TO BE BACK !!!

I got super lucky with that because all the metal shaving go stuck in my intercooler.
Whatever i pulled the FD out for one last time in 2010 summer. FML
forgot to post this up and mention before i moved back i made my self a custom mid pipe muffler.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMh_U5Me5C0
ended up getting another T70 but this one came with an anti surge housing.
in went to a few meet durring the end of 2010 season
picked up some aero but ended up selling it to FDmuri
i will post more later.

Interesting dyno sheet:
I ran my FD on a "Mustang Dyno" just like that one, and I'm a bit curious regarding details on your setup at the time.
To make 380hp @ 13psi on that dyno is impressive, depending on what the roller weight settings were.. but your torque does seems/seemed considerably low.
On my previous stock REW running a 62-1 @ 11psi, 550cc/1600cc, PFC, I remember making 272hp/239tq on the "mean guy" setting, but on a Dynojet it was 326hp/287tq.
At 15psi back on the Mustang Dyno, I made like 337hp/288tq on their "mean guy" setting again..which when compared to the DynoJet, adding again about that ~50hp/tq difference, equates to right at 400hp/340tq.
So I guess my question is...what is/was your setup at that time? It seems like you should be making more torque.
I can post the dyno's I'm referring to, if it helps.
I just want to help you to try and maybe get more power out of your setup, if I can..
