qwarrior Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Watch this space shortly were all going to be branded racist lol I'm sure there's US members on here reading and plotting an invasion. Maybe they should send one of their cars to AFR and see what it makes on the dyno and stop their whinging. They can't afford an invasion these days with their sub standrad credit rating and all. Most of the debt is probably due to replacing sub standard dynos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Looking forward to them waking up and having a rant about what I've been saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwarrior Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Well I read all 4 pages of the SF thread. I've been a member on there since 2008 and never posted, but i felt I needed to. By the way JP I see your featuring in Redline next month. Nice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdistc Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I completely understand the arguments - as I *still* have no idea what power my car makes in UK terms, as every country seems to use a different measure. Calling you or Ryan a liar is unnecessarily rude, when it would simply suffice to say that the dyno mis-reads. Simply put, put down a good terminal MPH on Sat and settle the argument.

JamieP Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 I've got nothing to prove, I could not care less what they think tbh and won't be posting in the thread again, let them get on with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Bieber Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 just read through the supraforums thread, i'd noticed one bloke said that a few 76mm turbos have made a power similar to yours but on race fuel, do you have any idea as to what kind of power you might make on a race fuel map?

JamieP Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) just read through the supraforums thread, i'd noticed one bloke said that a few 76mm turbos have made a power similar to yours but on race fuel, do you have any idea as to what kind of power you might make on a race fuel map? At the same boost levels it wont be much difference, get a few more degree of timing in and it may make 60-100 bhp more i guess.

Justin Bieber Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 oh right that's less that i thought it would be, but i suppose you could wind the boost up with race fuel? anyway its beside the point the yanks are clearly jealous, you've got an amazing machine there, looking forward to seeing the run on saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I just read through that thread and sadly I have to say it's one of the most reserved and polite threads in an american car tuning forum I've ever read! You should consider yourself fortunate I watched that speedo video. Really? That's really how it accelerates? Really? That's just beyond mental. How the hell do you park that thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Just one point, I don't know how diff JP's tune is to fast 5 but shouting over on SF that he will run a terminal of 165 +++ is a big ask and putting a lot of pressure on the big man, you want him to pick up 23 mph does anybody realise here what is involved in doing this????? Your setting the Forum up for a big fall if JP or my car does not crack at least 155 and Im still playing with the tune in mine because of the smaller housing.

I don't think he needs any pressure to run a 165+ terminal.... it does what it does, I certainly wouldn't do anything more than show up, run the car and be pleased with whatever it does and enjoy the day.

JamieP Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 165 is not going to be done on my power, jessica bartons car when 1078rwhp was doing low 150's with darin at the wheel. I could not care less what they think tbh dude, i only post my videos over there to get the veiw count up and earn a few quid from them Im not feeling any pressure, i love the car and will be happy with whatever it does the weekend, i just got fingers crossed for no rain, cant wait to get on track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sod them if they don't believe the numbers Thats the problem the terminal pretty much backs up the HP and going up saying it will run 165 is going to give the yanks so much amo if it does not, JP has not gone up saying he will do it just everyone else.

mr lover Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I think they see us as the 'good ole boys' from a hick town building cars from half a pick up, bit of a tractor and running them on pig shit and a bit of cow piss. God forbid that we could possibly do something 'nearly' as good as them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
