I might be willing to sell my stock coupe tails Devin. They're not broken or damaged in any way. I did polish and buff them a while back, but they could use it again. Not really sure what to ask for them, but I'd be open to offers. Feel free to PM me if you'd like.

Because I don't want to start another thread (and i'm feeling lazy...).

The adventure begins again (slowly)...

Slowly re-locating, re-wiring, and re-configuring the battery. Notice the old battery and tray sitting on the head and the new distribution block!

It's a slow process as I am smack dab in the middle of building my first home and will be closing mid February. Because of that funds are tight, so I have had no motivation until recently, when I remembered I already had the battery relocation stuff in my trunk.

Plan:
- Relocate battery (buying a Yellow/red top Optima as well for dry cell reasons so I can track it without a battery box).
- Better turbo intake (away from heat from motor)
- Bigger intercooler (min. 600whp rated)
- re-tune (hopefully hit 450+whp no problem)

Before I can run it in summer though, I need some new tires; But I'm back on my way to break that da** 450 mark

Just 450?

Why not go for 500, or more!? Git-r-dun!

Haha, you a**..

If Devin gets close to 400 but doesn't break 416, I'm gonna send the car back with my tuner and raise the bar to 450.

He already has the advantage of E85, I'm not gonna make it any easier on him. I'm calling you out Devin, lets do this! :badger:

Well, the only thing that would hold me back would be the turbo for sure, cam, and possibly injectors, but that will be the plan eventually no doubt. I'll push this thing hard come the next tune!

That won't be a problem...

Oh you bet your a** I'll break 400 no problem at all. I'm coming for you AF! I want to see what this turbo can do. It's on... :ohsnap:

FYI - Just ordered the 600 Precision intercooler!

I'm not sure about the turbo since they don't publish maps for them, but you're probably pushing it hard to get past 450. My 57 trim is starting to sweat a little at 19-21, but in theory it should still flow enough for 450 around 24-25psi if the head can keep up. That's asking alot of mysetup since it's all stock, but you should be good in that respect.

Aren't you on 1000's now? You should still be able to make 550 and maybe touch 600whp on ID1000's and E85 with a little extra fuel pressure. If you put all those fuel pumps to work, those injectors should almost perform like a 1600cc. For now, 600hp is just a pipe dream on this forum. I'd worry about it when you reach that mountain.
