My FD survived the dreaded dyno today

I got to run my FD at the Superflo dyno down at Bottleblown in Camarillo today after tuning some drift 240s, and it made 450 hp & 360 lb-ft of torque at 23 psi. This was on pump gas (91 octane) and aux methanol injection, and a Racing Beat muffler...I'm ditching the muffler soon for a Apex'i N1 and upping the boost & meth and we'll see what happens...

Pretty nice !
But watch out Methanol can / will spin (Dry Out) your bearings, ask Drhaleen(SP) or whatever his name is... he had a nice FD with meth setup in San Diego.

Ty, its all good, you probably would have given me **** about not making more power on that setup anyways. But the bright side is the car left the dyno with all 6 apex seals intact. Miguel ended up making 300ish at 14 psi on his 240...before he made 250 at 16 psi. The headwork & cams really woke that engine up, you should see the torque curve, flat as a table top from 3800 to redline. He ended up pegging 100% duty cycle at 14 psi, we had to back it down to 11 psi where he made 272. This is with 650cc injectors. The other 240 had a clogged radiator that we didn't know about (they just picked up the car a month ago) so that cut the tuning session short.

Andrew, to hell with the Racing Beat, I'm gonna go find me a Flowmaster hehe...

I'll definitely have you tune my SC after I break in that engine.

I wonder if you can eliminate some of that lag with a .96 A/R hotside. You should run a 50 shot of Nitrous to spool up that turbo.

5K+ = sling shot RPM.
