Most of the cars with big numbers that every one likes to see spend all their time doing just that, making big numbers on a dyno in a shed. Any place else they are shit to drive. To borrow your phrase, woopy do.

Im sure its possible to make a very streetable big HP car thats not an auto

Personally mine for 588rwhp is extremely streetable in my opinion. I know its not huge power. But still carries a single plate clutch which helps with drive-ability. Im sure if it had a twin or triple plate clutch it would be a harder task to drive daily

Again its all personal preference

800hp is still 800hp when that beast wakes up it'd knock the earth off it's rotation, rajab I hate this "responsive" "street friendly" crap :rant:

Get yo own phrase straw man lol

For someone I know to be smart you do a great job of sounding retarded :P. In any other situation than a drag race a 800hp "beast" won't know which way a street friendly car went!

Sometimes i wonder how responsive you can an 800hp setup.

Like i think mine is responsive [in perspective] for 600hp. Full boost at 4500prm. I wonder if i concentrated on bringing that on earlier just how it would fair...

Hell should have just stroked it

Put it on NOS! ;)

500 to 600hp is probably the sweet spot. It's fast but can be reasonably tractable. Above that is when it becomes increasingly difficult

Thank you, it's a skill I've perfected. "Smart" people get judged where "dumb" people are left to their own little games :)

This is assuming there is another situation other than a drag race? :P

Put in an auto and fix ALL the issues ...

It also should take into account what other handling mods etc are in the car.

Like a front diff...

Yeah, 6466 sounds a little big scott, but i'll be interested in seeing what your final figures end up at. (yes, i know you're a way off, but i'm a way off changing my setup aswell, i'm just researching).

with these precision turbos response can be pretty damn good these days.

Stroked engine will always help and we are already seeing many cars being setup that way and delivering astonishing results (power and response and tones a torque)

Your only issue Scottie is traction but those MT 275's will help ;)

P.S. I'm a mountain boy :yes:

I really want to build a 2.8 and throw on some -5s. Would be an amazing drive!

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand

      It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
