I brought up the car Joe tuned because it is pretty close to stock ( forged pistons don't add power they just allow the motor to handle more power) and made over 700rwhp with the tune. I'm not so sure that there is a "safe" tune when you get to and above 700rwhp on cast pistons.
Fine....... When the weather gets nice we will go to the track. I hope to break into the tens, I know the car is capable....but not so sure if I am:smirk:
derailed?? C'mon! This is a higher HP paxton thread is it not? We alredy talked about your numbers, how great DC performance, Woodhouse and even you are...I chimed in that I like DLM too (though you and I agree to disagree on that one):D now we are talking about what it takes to make 732 at...
These are perfectly reasonable questions...hopfully I'm helping you with information I've learned through my own experiance with the paxton and some of the available "upgrade" (subjective word apparantly) parts.:2tu:
Bob, 732rwhp seems reasonable enough to me given the mods Jon has on his car.
Big numbers are easily attainable if you know what you are doing with the tune in the PCM and the split second box....LOOKEY HERE.
The paxton kit gives you a ton of power out of the box and as many of us have...
you should tighten the bushing bolts with the car on the ground (with the suspension compressed) Theoreticly this may allow the car to sit lower or higher if you tighten them with the suspension hanging. Anyway it is better for the bushings. Most quality shops will put the car together then...
Isn't it? I'm having more fun on the forum today than I've had in months.:rolaugh: Mikey gone from the Viper world and winter time really put the brakes on the fun:(
Hey Jonny I noticed in another thread you were talking about shipping the car to chicago or something??...you leaving us...
Yeah get the dyno files, I can put them into the winpep program and overlay them onto my graph and we can see if the power curves are similar or different.
I realize this thread was not intended to be about DLM but you are so excited about your big number I found it absurd that you would knock...
Most of the three peice wheels have a "reverse drop out" - the area of the wheel the tire "drops" into when you are mounting or removing tires. The reverse drop allows for the wide lip we see on many of the wheels that are available.
The back; With a 20 inch 3 piece wheel, it's not an issue...
Keep on waiting for me to meet you at the strip...you'll be waiting a while. You know where I like to play and you should be able to pull on me a bit....that is to say as long as your belt doesn't slip :)
The DLM parts did what they were supposed to do on my car....of course they were...
You made 732 with out the DLM parts?
I would rather not have to use the DLM tensioner, I would prefer the paxton spring loaded tensioner to adequately do its job....but with my car the belt slipped...so I lost power. The DLM tensioner fixed that problem for me. My power curve is straight an...
I like the stock pads
great stopping power, no noise, they last
the only draw back is the dust, I bought the small california car duster and use it on the wheels when they get dusty
