Came across this in discussion with some of the MOTEC Research guys at the weekend ....

A 1658 hp Nissan VQ35 Dyno Pull at Heat Treatments Ltd, Auckland, NZ - Tuned By Shane T - YouTube

F4rk ....

I love the "that's not bad" comment at the end.

Christ... how much boost are they running and what pistons?

9500 rpm too :eek:

Wow

Proper drag engine.

Seems that engine life is measured in minutes rather than hours, but we are talking serious torque here !!!

Tuner is Shane Tecklenburg who is one smart dude I think .... Google says he is a Californian resident !!!

I suspect at these numbers the boost will be around 3 or 4 bar, maybe more !! Who knows !!

Damn! :eek:

Shane T used to tune the 1725rwhp Viper we had at my old bosses shop. After the first time he tuned it in person, we setup remote desktop tuning and he would log in from home and make adjustments when we needed. That particular engine never broke. Transmissions were the problem in that car. This is going back several years ago, I cant even remember when now.

i can see the vq not lasting as long as the viper though, being that it has to be running nearly double the cylinder pressure, and yeah methonal is gonna be fun but too much extra maintenance for me. I do not like flushing entire fuel systems and cleaning out heads and manifolds every time I run a car to prevent white residue, and keep it lubed.
