Defined Autoworks 523whp 35r!!

Interesting offer. Are you asking him to try another dyno other than a dynapack or just a a different location to validate his times? 540hp in a 2900 lb car should run in the area of 10.2 at 133 mph. Assuming that your customers car only weighed 2400 lbs with 370 hp should show a 10.8 at 125 mph. I also am not trying to start anything, but you are here asking for proof right. Well you listed an unknown customer car, with no real info other than 370 hp & weight reduction with some trap speed. I hate to say it but you haven't really made a good argument & no hard info was provided on your customers car. Now I may be wrong this is just my opinion. BTW there are other factors involved other than Hp & weight when at the track, which I'm positive you already know.

Trap speeds are trap speeds unless you are making 1000hp and litterally spinning down the track.

Customer is on the other forum, Im not trying to take credit for his car or his accomplishments. All I did was rebuild his block. Car weighs 2560 without driver, made 368rwhp, FD, non-sequential, 3" exhaust, enough fuel, slicks, stock 5 speed trans, 4.10 gears, 20psi on stock twins. Not leaving on 2step just revving and going so would be similar to the above car. The car I am speaking of went 11.1 at 127 and has gone 11.0s at 126.

What do I have to prove? When someone comes on a forum claiming near 100+ rwhp more than the other 100 setups documented at a certain boost level I think it is up to them to prove the numbers or expect few to believe it.

I figured people would reacte the way you did, so let me clarify. I WANT TO BE PROVEN WRONG. Just highly doubt I will.

Ill pay for him to run on a dyno dynamics dyno run by a reputable shop or pay for him to run at the dragstrip. Even throw in an extra $50.00 to cover gas or whatever else. I would love to believe we can make 523rwhp with a responsive small turbo at 14-15psi on these cars but just dont see it happening.
