No wonder George hasn't replied to my email :rofl2:
Are you going with a Bell core?

Well, I'll be good then :tup:

Things to consider for 1000whp: head gasket fix before everything else, upper manifold upgrade, intercooler and IC piping upgrade and turbo limitation. That said the FI intercooler is just fine up to 900whp.

LOL, my turbo's may be out too. Deal with that later if that is the case. Can always turn it back down.

He is trying to help a brother out and make sure he makes his event.

Already have my old intercooler sold.

His ears must have been burning, I just received an email from him. But, yeah, I'd rather he help you first, my request is low priority.

Mazworx engine is hanging in there. First one to be tested like this. I hope all is good at the end of all this. Damn sure makes me nervous.

Mazworx has built a DE like mine and made 1200whp. I should be good to go.

It will be the same core/ Intercooler they run on their drag car which is a Bell core. They have Garretts in stock, but I will go with what has been working for them.

Good choice!

This has been one heck of a path trying to get through all the BullChit other folks have spewed over the years. WTH!!!!!!!

Not sure if they can get the new intercooler done in time. If that ends up being the case I will have it turned down to 26psi of boost and the tune finished. I will know more tomorrow.

Looked at the dyno graph again. It dumped at 7500. Looks like an AR change to the turbo may be needed to run 30psi of boost. Trying to get in the 4 digits is a pain in the butt and expensive. I may not make it. Oh well, I want to make my event.

It's still going to be a beast of a car. :tup:

The way the boost ramped in it didn't even spin on the dyno. LOL The boost by gear change and tune change is going to be worth it's wait in GOLD.... Nick is doing real good with it.
Yes, I have a boost plot with the dyno graph this time.

Car made 989whp 812TQ at 30 psi. To me, it doesn't count because the IAT's were way too high. I can't use it. It's not all about the numbers.

That’s a chit load of torque :eek:

Gonna be a blast to drive

Looks like I am not going to make my event. The coating we are going to put on the intercooler will have a 14 business day timeline. Oh well, not gonna rush it.

Gonna try a little bribery to get to the front of the line. LMAO!!!!

It ain't about cubic inches, it's about cubic dollars.

Looks like I will be going to Z Nationals this year. My nephew wants me to take him to a car show. Yeah, he is going for a ride. LOL

Lol at “only” good to 900 whp :icon17:

Eiked out 900whp. LOL

Anybody try this out before???

^^^^^^Think I am going to put his on my intercooler this time. Not going to anodize it.

Interesting. Looks like you're going to be the guinea pig

Gonna figure out something. I just want it black where I can't see it. I just don't want it to retain heat. All Good, George is working on it. Got to keep my sleeper status.

Now the question is a Bell Core or a Garrett core. SOHO has both in stock but have not made a Garrett core intercooler yet. I have been reading and the Garrett cores are supposedly quite good.

Guess I will use whatever SOHO wants. No big deal. It is going to be better than what I have today.

I know Seb is a big fan of Bell. We never discussed Garrett.

Yeah, going with the tried and true Bell core.

New intercooler is on the schedule to be made this week, then it will be sent out for coating. I told Nick he may want to make a Jig so he can duplicate it for other folks with a Fast Intentions kit. Looks like the turbo's are gonna be done around 27 to 28psi. The exhaust housing is the limiting factor. I want to get the car back and see how it does. I really don't care to loose too much of the power down low. If it was a drag car it wouldn't matter so much but that is not how I use the car.

Bumper cover is off and making headway. They are going to take pictures of the finished product just in case more folks are interested in it.

FI intercooler is only 2.5in thick by looking at the pictures. Piping size is 2.5in. diameter. Going to a 3.5in Bell core should do the trick. In progress. Getting it coated I will be waiting in line like everybody else which sucks. 14 business days of waiting.

The real test is going to be when the car goes back on the dyno. 20 to 30 deg rise in IAT's will rob HP. I was at freaking 60 deg rise from Ambient. That was a holey chit moment.

I don't get it. Nobody before me that got up in the 9xx whp range never noticed this. WTH!!!! How CarbonZ made 1003whp is beyond me. That chit had to be hot unless it was done in the colder months. I am baffled.

Even Dynosty's shop car was in the 1xxx whp range with an FI kit. They didn't notice it either? Did they think they were out of turbo causing it to blow hot air. I just don't get it.

See, it is even open deck. I beat that didn't last long. It even had the stock plastic intake. Dang how times have changed.
