Thanks. Curious to see what you did different, if anything, from what I've got going on. Best of luck with your build!

In regards to this, I'm actually the WORST hypocrite. Currently trying to dissuade my other half from putting a s*tload of nitrous in his 650+whp Z06 (for legal private track use only of course...) because I don't want him to die, yet here I am basically doubling the power in my own car. Might not be the best person to give advice. All I'll say is sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission

No major updates other than everything is moving along nicely! My ideal timeframe for having the car back is mid-November. According to the always awesome Daelen @ MA, engine tear down has begun and machine shop is currently waiting on pistons and bearings. The kit from FI is estimated to be delivered within the next four weeks.

I also have some super cool *POSSIBLE* developments that I'll post about as soon as I can confirm yay or nay.

All in all everything's coming together nicely. Although I do have to finish paying the bills...anybody want to come to a yard sale...?

Side note, it's been really fun going through this experience with my other half. We're both really into cars and there's never a dull moment. You know when your friends start building and you get the bug? He decided 650+ C6 Z06 isn't enough power (or rather, it won't be enough soon...) and adding manifold, throttle body, clutch/flywheel to the 302/308 cam setup, with drag radials for good measure. Oh, and a stupid large tank of nitrous.

we'll be having some fun soon.

Christmas is coming early

Wouldn't you want different cams for a turbo application? There's almost too much overlap as it is, so won't you be blowing a lot of boost out the exhaust valves? Or do they have a set of turbo cams in the works?

Well as I understand, Jim Wolf Technologies works almost exclusively with Nissan motors. The cams have been developed with VVEL / engine specifics in mind and aim to have that perfect boost:back pressure ratio to prevent loss of power. The turbo cams I'm receiving are being custom built for this setup. But I am by far the least qualified person to speak extensively on this complex technology...where's my boy Daelen at?

I remember 6 years ago when 400whp was fast and was the quest for most people! Then there was the whole "Real fun starts at 500whp" deal. And now 600 is becoming the new norm for a fast car..lol.. Gotta love technology I guess.

roplusbee · 10-03-2015, 07:50 PM

600 to the wheels is plenty fast. Most people will find the ditch with that kind of power under their control. Then you have the people that actually respect the power and take time to become one with their machine before taking things to the edge.

My new favorite jacket finally came in.
