Gman finally dropped off the beast at CPrace

BTW, my offer to buy your car for $5 still stands.

With no exhaust not only did the car make 543whp @12 psi vs. 430whp @ 16 psi with exhaust, but when CPrace dynoed with no exhaust the cooling temp never passed 205. After the run it immediately went back down to 170. Seems like the exhaust is too restrice and traps the hot air in the block. It is weird cause Sharif made over 500whp with the same exhaust although he was dropping power in the higher RPMS. I guess every car is different. I have seen a few APS TT guys with built motors post similar results where one guy can make power and another guy with the same exhaust is having problems making the same power. I am going to swing by a muffler shop this week to see if I can get a custom dual 3" with HKS TI mufflers.

Now, time for a very serious question... When will you be making your way to Orlando?
