1080p means the footage is available in full high definition, 1920x1080 pixels.

peak boost is 25psi / 1.7bar. I can't measure it but the peak boost is above 23psi because that is where my map sensor maxes out and I don't have a boost gauge.

It might not look like it but that was a sloppy pass driving wise (hard to get clean fast gear changes with a flogged out jap import box, I got clean changes but they were slow as all ****). Also the car wasn't running 100% right, lean in 2nd and 3rd gears and then rich blowing out the spark all through 4th gear.

That was the only pass out of 5 that night where I could get the car into the next gear.

Also I had a nearly full tank of E85 because the closest E85 servo is very far from the drag strip and range is short and I wasn't sure if it was going to be a 5 pass night or a 20 pass night and I hate running low on fuel and having to sit and watch.

Excuses for sure but you can also see and hear the massive pedal off I made before the 60ft was over.

The car is still only showing glimpses of how fast it can be...

Its probably more like 360rwhp on account of the extra boost. 6-7psi extra for 30rwhp extra because the turbo is out of puff. The extra 7psi @ 4000rpm gives in a seriously broad power band.

Its 'so fast for low power' because I have found a dyno in my city which spits out 'true wheel power' and not some correction factored bloated holy wood fake ******* number.

Basically the figure is accurate.

Car has done a 124.30mph trap before with a crap 60ft and poor 1/8 track, but good gear changes.

Full interior, the only thing I left home was the spare wheel. I've been around 256lbs weight myself for the last 6 months. This car would have eaisily been 2600lbs that night.

I put the car on a weigh bridge a few years ago and it said 2556lbs with a full tank of fuel (I was a lot more lean back then). And the car has also taken on a TII transmission.

Apparently there is a 3.5 and a 3.3 ratio as well. I've never seen one however. Its from an early 80s rwd Mazda that your market probably didn't get.

Hales gives 390BHP for 124.30mph and 2600lb which is my best guess.

390BHP through a 83% efficient driveline gives you 323.7rwhp. Considering the formula is assuming ideal grip and clutchless sequential transmission gear changes as well as the ideal gear ratio.

If I gear the car to cross the line at ideal revs the car lights up circuit radials at pretty decent speeds. Consider power skids from 4000-8000rpm in 4th gear because I drove over a rut at full throttle.

Geared tall I have close enough to full grip in 3rd gear, rather than turning 4th sometimes like it used to.
