Fast Intentions Stage 2 TT build by MA-Motorsports.

Guess I have to sit back and wait. Several cars being built. We shall see how they do. Folks have to drive them. LOL

That 930 whp Z I was referring to said he is scared to drive it hard because he doesn’t want to break it

You can drive them hard but you have to turn it down a bit. You can't run them that way on the street anyway. Car is just too fast. I am not running around on my highest boost setting but I do run it that way on the 718hp setting all day long. I have been on the 12psi setting and the 21psi setting before though. I just gravitate to the middle setting.

I have had more of a chance to think about this. This is the way I feel about it.
I will use Joby just as an example.

Say, Joby wants a ride. I give him one at my normal 17psi of boost level.

Joby: "Wow, it is fast but I thought it would have more."
Me: "OK, I will turn it up to high boost."

We make a run and something goes wrong. A head gaskets blows.
Me: "Oh crap, this is going to be expensive".
Me: "SOB, it is going to be 16k to 20k to get the motor redone."
Me: "How fast can I get the car back in the shop and how long is
this going to take?"
Me: "I am screwed, it is going to be a year before MA-Motorsports can get
to my car. This sucks."
Joby: "Sorry man, I hate to hear that, while walking away."


So ya see, he has a damn good point. We all know reliability starts
to be an issue around 800whp. I am right at it. My motor could pop
a head gasket at any time running high boost, just like other folks have. At the end of the day it was my choice to do the build the way I have. I am
responsible for it and the way I choose to drive it. It's just the way it is at the moment. One guy sold his car because of the issue and totally got out. I can understand that. I may would do the same.

Elmo370z

You’re right. His car he can do whatever he pleases. Guess we all build for reasons.

I know someone that isn’t afraid to press the foot-feed
You only get to feel it for a few seconds & then you’re backing off
