It should be interesting, Turbotim you and I are all pretty close together HP wise! Any bets???

 

[MCharlebois]

i was thinking the same thing... ... ..... well, with fuel pressure this time i am thinking and hoping for 375ish... ... guess i should have pulled the plug on that turbo a little sooner. dumbass

we will see what the smarty does for ya

bet i will be there first :-laf :-laf

 

[johncameron]

I'm wishing for a hair more than that, 390ish uncorrected. If you get 375 on a 9CM HY turbo man that thing will be screaming :{ :{ :{



Over and out



John

 

[MCharlebois]

it only has to last a couple more days... scream away

 

[DPike]

Thanks for setting that up John, it was a lot of fun. Hope you all had a safe trip back. Good seeing old faces, and nice to meet you Tim.

Ah, what a nice day for a trip, well except for all the tourist on the roads. What is it with everyone doing 10-15 mph under the speed limit on the VT roads? I was happy with my numbers 387. 64 was my best horsepower and a torque of 852. 35 ft/lbs Guess I'll have to add that to the signature. It was great meeting you guys, we'll definantely have to do something again sometime. I wish I got on the TDR last night John, I might have taken you up on a friendly wager even though I didn't expect the results.

 

[MCharlebois]

sure was a good day,my numbers were better than expected also 380. 7 and 786. 84

5 bucks for fuel on the way up ... . 90 bucks to dyno... ... the look on john`s face when i got my numbers..... priceless :-laf :-laf

see ya next year fellas

One thing I did notice was that the 4. 10 gear guys had 800 ft/lb's and the 3. 54 gear guys had closer to 1000 ft/lb's all with similar horsepower.

 

[MCharlebois]

Tim,

alot of people have stated that 4. 10`s hurt you on the dyno ,strip and track... i guess we are missing the tq down low the mighty cummins makes :{

Dan, those train horns are LOUD... ..... what did you get again?

keep smiling

Just got in, the rest of the trip was successful. Great #'s to everyone, it was a blast!



Yes for sure the 3. 54's helped me out on torque, but I'm sure the smarty helped even more with torque, look at the diffrernce between last year and this year without power braking.

 

[DPike]

LOL, they are Grover 1275's. I thought I would give them a little toot, you know, to clear out any condensation :-laf

 

[MCharlebois]

hey john,

any video footage,i got some with my camera but i am sure yours would be better quality

[MCharlebois]
