thanks for the comments guys. keith, that was awesome chinese food. lol I thanked Dee on my other thread in the 20b section. but ill thank him again, hell, his big ol dome is all over the video! lol. the car is a mild street port. I posted the video up the best i could. the runs are not in any type of order. the car made 585hp @ 12psi and 663hp @ 18 psi. This is the first and only time the car has been on the dyno, and the transmission was put in the night before. it is straight cut gears. More boost to come soon. that 10 second pass was between 12 and 13 psi on 93 octane.

Btw: that guy limpin around ran 10.80 with his first gen with those crutches. lol.

NOW, i did not intend to be cocky here, however, i know there are going to be plenty of v8 guys etc who see the mid 10 sec run on pump gas and say.... o ya that was like 30 psi etc bla bla bla. so I recorded my boost gauge during that Pass. If you look at the pass and then look at the gauge, you can certainly see how the gauge corresponds with the pass. Look how fast the needle goes up to boost in first thru 3rd gear, then you can see where i missed 4th in the gauge and how delayed and slow it goes up. All im saying is yes....it was 12 to 13psi on that run missing 4th.

BTW: My favorite part on the dyno video is where DEE is pointing at the hp curve on the dyno chart and says " this is where you make alota money on the street" lol Listen closely.
