It can be, but we listen for detonation through head phones tapped directly into the ECU and the car has never left the dyno with anything too aggressive. It is still in our hands and we will do everything in our power not to blow it up! I promise that it will be right when we are finished. We are just sharing everything in our findings with the community to keep you all included every step of the way.

Thanks, Tony

ps; where are you getting 100 octane pump fuel???

We are working on perfecting the fuel and rest assured that we will have it figured out.

There is one of 2 gas stations locally that we can get it from. I believe it is roughly $8.50 per gallon. I am going to get 10 gallons there tonight. I will take a picture and post if you the community.

Thanks, Tony

I enjoy you on the other side of the world!:tup:

Too bad I was before ....in F.I.

Otherwise, I would have ordered your kit!

Perfect job!

:tiphat:

I didn't research my first FI venture and paid for it. Just what I've been reading and what you have been sharing is just amazing. Also it is just amazing seeing this kit come to life. This will be my next winters project.:driving:

isayimandrew 02-22-2013 10:07 AM

Famoso bound with VP 100 octane! Stay tuned we will be updating this throughout the day

TerribleONE 02-22-2013 10:50 AM

Also, I got to finally spend a little seat time in the car and all I have to say is WOW.. the boost was turned down to about 5psi and still pulled like a train! The car spools instantly, way faster than I imagined. Honestly I would compare it my families cls550 with the TT V8. 3rd gear and tip into the throttle even at 3k rpms and the car just takes off. It shreds my 305s like they are prius tires without even going WOT. I really cant express how pleased I am with the car. Out of boost the car drives like stock, it is not to loud, nor are there any other weird things that make the car less tolerable, but if you tip into the throttle be ready and hang on!!! I will obviously post up a more detailed review with tons of video and pictures. I want to publicly thank everyone from F.I and Specialty Z as they have far exceeded my expectations once again. Stay tuned for track times and other updates coming soon!

Have fun at the track!

:driving: Sounds awesome, I'll take note to raise my expectations higher than yours since F.I. has exceeded yours about 6 times in the past couple weeks :rofl2: Can't wait to see this run today! I say low 11"s at 130mph traps?

I'm exagerating a little. Our premium grade gas here (91 or 94 octane) goes for the equivalent of ~$5.70/gallon :icon14:

Anyways... looking forward to seeing you guys blitz the tree with the sticky tires :driving:

Little Update,

We just completed tech inspection and we are being told that the first time we hit 11.49 that we are being booted! Looks like the tech inspector remembered the car from 2 weeks ago.

Are they saying it because you need a roll cage?

Better sandbag the first few runs. Hit the brakes before crossing the line. :icon17:

Footloose301 02-22-2013 12:30 PM

Haha sandbag it for sure!

SS_Firehawk 02-22-2013 12:34 PM

Well then, when you do make a good pass, better make it count :)

enkei2k 02-22-2013 12:41 PM

I've never been to the track so I don't know, but why is that?

There are rules set that if you are a certain speed/time you must have specific safety equipment.
Once you start getting into the 11/10 many tracks require roll cages, safety gear, etc.

KaienZ34 02-22-2013 12:48 PM

Here it's 12.99 or faster you need a helmet, 11.99 or faster a roll cage and so on...

Z eliminator 02-22-2013 12:53 PM

Roll cage was for 2012 rules 11.49 or faster
Its 9.99 or faster now.
I will be putting GTR badges on my car.( its a 2009 GTR).
Just glue them on.

That is true, but many tracks are only allowing the sub-10 rule for bone stock cars like the GT-R and Corvette.

F.I. Inc. 02-22-2013 01:12 PM

First pass out went 12.4 @ 98 mph. Let up just after the 1/8 mile.

Is it launching better? What are the 1/8th times?

Sh0velMan 02-22-2013 01:15 PM

lol that's comical. 12.4 @ 98 hahaha Should be in the 14's @ 98mph

Just blast down at the end of the day I suppose?

Did you get booted?

F.I. Inc. 02-22-2013 02:19 PM

No one has said anything yet. No boot as we know of. Letting the car cool and grabbing a bite.

Stay tuned...

SS_Firehawk 02-22-2013 02:28 PM

good $hit

Nixlimited 02-22-2013 02:58 PM

How are the 60' times? Curious how those MT ETs are doing.

1.754

F.I. Inc. 02-22-2013 04:20 PM

We ran about an hour ago. Wheel hop was atrocious! Cut a 2.0 60 FT.

Went 11.99 @125.90 Too much tire pressure and launched a little high.

In the lanes ready to go again. I guess we are not booted as of yet...

gbrettin 02-22-2013 04:34 PM

It looks like they set a goal to reach by the end of the day.... Get booted with a smile!

Punk86 02-22-2013 04:40 PM

Loving the Facebook updates guys! Its easier to keep an eye on it that way.

Even if we don't get booted we are smiling all the way home. 11.4 on 9 psi is more than acceptable. Broke the stock block record by almost three tenths of a second. Stock suspension and heavy 19" rims (up front) getting drug down the strip.

Want to get a few more passes in where it sits. Probably wont turn the boost up. Smarter to play it safe than sorry! Think she has got an 11.3 in her the way she sits. Currently sitting in the stageing lanes waiting out turn.

Thanks, Tony
