Cool video. More footage other than the one run, the one burnout, and the runs up & down the driveway/sidestreet woulda been cool. Additionally the exposure may be more balanced on the in car video if it's possible to use the Backlight function. Then again I could be wrong, I've not had the privelege to mess around with DV as much as I'd like.

Amazing HP chart results, about 440HP @ what like 8500 -8800 rpms? It just winds & winds. Although in comparison to the last half of the dyno pull (the upper rpms) the lower 4500 rpm looks weak hehe. But you have to choose where you want your power. Just keep it buried & above 5500 rpms.

Thanks...

More footage would have been great...Adam got tired of waiting around for Jordan (He is currently uploading hours and hours of film, but got busy with school)...You can be sure all three of us are working together on a large completion video.

He hits a little over 450whp and revs to 9k. The graph is pretty deceptive due to the ramp time being off...he actually ends up hitting full boost at 5500 rather than 6500

On a 1.6L, that's not a bad powerband.

Sweet pic, your vette looks like the redheaded basterd child of the group lol

Nice vid Adam... very impressive!!!! I like the disclaimer too..."on a closed course.." Im not sure if Boaz is considered a closed course tho...lol.. :wink:

It's impressive to see it rev so high.

I don't mean to "knock" Adam or his car, but I have a couple of questions.

1. He said that he's shooting for 10's. What's his latest slips say? Lot's of us on here know that dyno numbers don't mean a whole lot. Dragstrip ETs/traps give a better impression of what a car's got(power wise).

2. How much money does he have in the car? I don't mean on the current setup; I mean since he bought it. How much has it cost him to get it to this level?

He is putting in a different suspension and purchase some drag radials this winter, and the quest will start this coming spring im sure... As far as how much it has cost him... Im not sure he even has a good idea, all I can say is that he has all his parts listed and im sure you could add up the cost of the parts and subtract any stock parts those replaced (b/c he sells most/all of his stock parts and gets some good $$ for them) and add in two trips to the dyno, and I am sure you will get a close estimate. All labor was done by him so that can be assumed to be $0... Didnt mean to step on anybodies toes just putting my .02 in...

Did anyone watch "Heros" last night? The episode was called "6 months ago". I present to you, the movFast version, called "2+ years ago."

I would say less than 30k and definately 11.5-12 sec car maybe faster with different tires dont know but seen hondas in that power range run that easily.

i have to say i do resepect all the work thats been put into this thing. Fucking sick.

[jdogg123]

As do I. I respect any car, be it a mustang, civic or 4x4. If someone does the work, and does it well...then my hats off to them.

Also, nice vid btw.
