Yeap, he has got himself some skinnies up front.

Only one thing left to do, brake ducts. After this the car is finished.

Looking at some old emails from the start of the build. I have stuck to the build Daelen and I decided on a while ago. I did add a few things and changed very few. The items I changed were the Turbo's and that is it (From FI stage 2 to FI stage 2.5). I did add the Nismo spl subframe bushings, Trackspec vents, CSF Radiator, Finite Element design brake ducts, Diff cooler install, Bellworks diff brace, and DSS pro level axles. I did have to upgrade to a triple ATS Carbon clutch to hold the TQ. I did a good job of staying the coarse on the build as far as builds go. LOL I am so ready to get behind the wheel.

The most difficult part of being mid build (at least for myself) is chasing "while I'm in there" squirrels. You did a damned good job staying on track

It is very difficult. I missed one goal of making 800hp at the wheel at 18psi of boost. It took 21psi of boost. I have a restriction somewhere that would need to be addressed to fix it. That is a squirrel that I didn't chase. Overall, I meet my goals of what I set out to do. Not bad for the first swing at it.

:tup:

Congrats on everything, but shouldn't you be using this:
I've always been under the assumption that 4th gear pulls for tuning/dyno are the quote unqoute "closest" results for comparison.

Probably so, Not too worried about it. It's just a number at the end of the day. I am sure it will be plenty fast enough. It's very hard to say how other people report on their dyno numbers. We were transparent so everyone could see both. I am still happy with the 780hp in 4th.

This is one of my pet peeves...why is it necessary to compare all things when there is no way to do so in a statistically valid way. Spooler posted both 4th gear and 5th gear data points and if you have a clue you can make whatever conclusion you want. I get tired of people trying to ruin others experience because they used a dyno that reads high or low, or questioning the validity of data unless it is obvious it can't be true.

We talk wheel horsepower and much of the automotive world talks braek or crank horsepower. So his little old 780whp is about 900 break horsepower. That number puts him and other in hyper car range. I like that comparison the best!

lmao.......

Anybody that knows anything about a turbo car, the more load you put on the engine the more boost you will make. That is why it is very difficult to get a good comparison on any turbo car or truck on a chassis dyno. If you have a clutch slipping, if you have traction issues, this all can effect the load on the motor which means less boost. Some folks can make more boost on the street or drag strip. So to put this all together, my car had a bigger load on it in 5th gear, it made boost sooner (by looking at the Tq graph), and it made more hp because of it. It still made 825hp at the wheel. That is 949 hp at the crank.

I am happy with my puny 280whp in 4th, and here we got nickel and dime splitting hair at the 800+ range haha.

Cheers to the finished build! I just wanna see videos of this thing!!!!!

LMAO, stupid fast is still stupid fast. At this power level it is all about "Can you get traction".....
