Wom man thats badass, mad props on the build. Looking forward to seein that beast tear up the track.

 

Thanks guys !!!!!!!! it's 6:45 am, and getin ready to load the car on the trailer
will post updates soon, damm i'm crazy ?


wish me luck

 

luck was not on my side, sadrday was a WASTE, not 1 dyno pull long story short
got a real bad oil leak from the fabricated oem oil filter mount. I even drove 2 temple to try n fix it, after 4 hrs came back and it's stilll leakin. so from 6:45 am till 10:30 pm I got but on a good note the engine is ready for boost
jus got 2 work da bugs out.

 

You should have just driven to Kerrville.


It was made freehand so it's not pretty. It will get the job done though.

 

God damn you are good Allen! My oil lines love you too.

 

 

Looks like it will work !!!!! will p/u from u 2 maro !!!!!!! thanks

should be back 2 the dyno soon ?

 

LONG story short , my dumb *** drove the car to p/u the part from allen. engine has no leaks, big thanks to 13b-rx3 (allen) ran out of gas on the dyno
due 60 miles added to the odo only had 10 gallons of c-16. anyways I was bound and determine to record a #, so the outcome is 396 rwhp @ 15 psi ?????????
I was scared that something bad was going to happen so I pulled alot of timing
my air temp was 132 deg w/ no ice, overall I am very happy cuz I did this w/ 50 %
throttle. not bad for 1/2 throttle more to come soon

 

Nice work!!!! I will be talking to you about some tunning soon. I just talked to Brian about you. Im impress with your work. Again nice job.
Thanks Robert

 

hmm... that sounds about right for HP at that boost. im running stock ports on the RE and made 410 rwhp at 18 psi. not to shabby

 

The car was so loud on the dyno I wish I had some earplugs. Power at 50% throttle was amazing. Bring some more c16 next time!!!!!!

 

LMAO !!!!!!!!!! damm I look like a dumbass, looks like I will be gettin a 55 gallon drum of VPQ16, that will never happen again. even my wife said i'm a dumbass for runnin out of gas 30+ psi 11-10-07 @ PROTECH PERFORMANCE stay tuned

 

well now it looks like i'm gettin somewhere, another long story short made 604 @ a 27-30 psi @ 6500 rpm !!!! and carrys the power to 8000 rpm the most shocking thing is that the a/f'rs are 10'0's and the spark never skipped a beat, the msd setup that i have is the **** !!!!!!!! and the timing is low !!!!!! my goal was to make a 100 hp more than my old setup and I almost got w/ some problems. I really feel that I will make 650rwhp-700rwhp @ a solid 30 psi. I am very happy w/ this setup.


thanks to all for your support !!!!!!!
and a special thaks to hass @ PROTECH PERFORMANCE for the use of there dyno
and there support
and to ari, @ ROTARY PERFORMANCE for his support

when are you coming back to Austin?

 

updates on this awesome build?

 

well on a good note the engine is still strong, the rotary performance seals are holding up great, can't say that bout the mazda drivetrain tho ?????? broke the inner axle on the STREET ??????? and to make another long story short "sleeper7''
gave me a xtra inner axle to take the car to IFO here in san antonio. decided to take it easy on my first pass so I got a real slo 1.99 60 ft then went WOT !!!!
slammed 2nd gear, and couldn't get 3rd if I wanted to, after "jammin" it into 3rd( 2-3) sec later ended w/ a 12.49 @ 124 mph the most shockin thing is that at the 1/8th mile it was 8.88 @ 81 mph I gained 43 mph from the 1/8 mile to the 1/4 mile I myself was like DAMMM very happy, got 1 more "rebuilt" tranny to try n get sum 9 sec passes soon.



G force tranny commin soon, bout to say good bye 2 the "street car"

 

Lee

Get back to working on the car so you can get it back to the track ASAP. I can't wait to see this take a full throttle pass!!!!
