You do realize that LTH's are a supporting mod and will only help both HP and TQ in a forced induction situation.

Besides F.I.'s LTH's have been shown to create more TQ than stock. Look up scavenging just a quick site I found

Autolounge.net | Tech | Exhaust

It really depends on how the headers are tuned. You have to remember that an engine is simply an air compressor, the more air you can feed it and get out of it the more power it will make.

Sam you kicka**, taking it to the next level!:happydance:

I just watched the video again at a better resolution. I definitely don't see that needle climbing above 8 psi. Thanks for the clarification Sam.

I really like telemetry you are including in these videos. Keep up the good work!

I heard that Russia is going to block car sites for corrupting their youth and oil field workers not paying attention to there panels :stirthepot:

Any update on the BP failure?
I'm curious why the safety protocols failed. i.e. blow out valves

Zat_Zuma 05-07-2010 07:23 AM

Had a quick look for the answer to my question, but couldn't find it.

I see that the windshield washer container is removed from the passenger side and I`m wondering if it`s moved to somewhere else, replaced with another smaller container or removed completly

Besides that, it`s looking good Sam :tup:

shumby 05-07-2010 07:56 AM

Some music with mostly pictures we have seen and some clips of the car on the dyno and driving around on the street (which I think some of which we have seen).
Looks like a good "promo" video, but does show a good bit of what the kit can do.

shumby 05-07-2010 09:01 AM

G37Sam 05-07-2010 02:24 PM

Putting shumby in control of an oil rig is like having your dog watch your cat while you're gone lol

shumby 05-07-2010 02:28 PM

Well if the price of oil drops too much then i could not afford my GTM SC and goodies. So sorry world let the oil prices rise.

Great job Sam..I can only imagine if you got your hands on a GTR to see what you would come up with...!

JB-370z 05-07-2010 05:00 PM

This thing sounds more like a turbo with blow off valves than it does a supercharger. Dam this is very nice Sam. Why does it sound like it have BBV's??? :bowrofl:

Kastley85891 05-07-2010 05:10 PM

Loving that TRQ - not bad HP ;-o I jest

puckshaw 05-07-2010 05:21 PM

oontz...oontz...oontz...oontz...oontz...

Sweet video :tup: Can't wait til I can save up the cash for this kit :drool:

Zsteve 05-07-2010 06:10 PM

cool video, Me like it. I got my stop loss money from the Army so once I get my family settled here in El Paso I think I will be buying this kit. My only concern is finding a shop good enough to do this.

whiddles 05-07-2010 11:34 PM

Damn i love that video Sam great job.

Zsteve 05-09-2010 01:51 PM

shumby 05-09-2010 02:19 PM
