finally I'm Done.... i've come to join the FI crew THANKS TO SHAWN @ CHURCH~!!!
Come on now.... The guy started his post with "welcome to FI"... Then shared some facts with the OP....i feel he is doing the OP a favor.....I see it all the time at dyno days when people show up with numbers from another brand dyno then finding out they have half the power...not a good feeling.
Post some pic OP
Post some pic OP
See, XKR know's actually what I'm referring to n I did say weclome, lol
I'm speaking from experience, I alrdy maxed out the vortech's potential with an upgraded blower (t-trim) and built motor and I only made 480whp on pump gas (91) without meth at 19psi. Can the OP seriously tell ppl he's making 430whp at 8psi ???
Hey OP, congrats on your build and tune; I also got my car done at Church with my Vortech and I am very happy with the tune/results...
I'll probably coming back to Church to get my car re-tuned with Meth...
However, if you want to get a comparative dyno with most of the other cars I would get a re-dyno on a dynojet...I am going to do that myself after I get the meth done...probably at Specialty Z...GTM has a dynojet too...

Judging by how crotchety people seem to be in here with guys who are all excited, albeit new, with their new car and build... I get the impression some people should take a break. If a guy needs to know the dyno he pulled reads high... tell him. When he comes in wondering if his car is okay... give him pointers to fix it. Us new guys shouldn't have to come in here getting flamed just because we want to get advice from people we're learning to trust as opposed to the people giving advice 3 years ago who have since been banned- or are now actually crotchety and jaded.
Sorry, but really getting annoyed with needing to wear flame retardant clothing every time someone has a question and didn't read through 4000 results that are 4 years old through a search result.

^lol you will get the least amount of sympathy in the FI forums because by definition it is the one forum that you NEED to have done your research to be truly a part of and involved in.
But I don't think it was just pure hating on the op, it is good to tell him what he can realistically expect so he end up looking like an idiot in some other situation. Also letting him know what he would need to get to those actual numbers and what to expect.
More on topic, congrats op I am superbly jealous of your setup
Now post pics or ban!

Welcome to our world, OP! I hope you have a great time boosting around in the G with minimal problems.
That being said, you came here humbly, that's always a good thing. I agree with some of the others... I'm by no means a huge power maker like XKR or have near the money in mine like the 'legal dealer', but I have been FI for about 4 years and have learned a lot during that time. It's time to put on ya big boy pants, FI is a huge responsibility. Last time I read about Church the feedback was not that swell.
You said you finished this project, I hope that means YOU finished and you know your car. Some mechanical know-how or deep pockets is the only way to survive for long with a boosted VQ. The above post is correct. This forum does move as fast as the other because 95% of anything you need is searchable either on here, or My350z. We try to make our threads as informative and drawn out is possible so there is a lot of information in each thread... eliminating the "search is useless" replies you get when in other parts of the forum.
Again, welcome to the community- I remember how excited I was to be able to post in this forum and drive up to VQ meets and be one of only 1 or 2 others max to have a FMIC behind the bumper. I am finally getting out of the bitchiest relationship I have ever had in my entire life. Where one boosted VQ is born, another dies
If you need any parts for your newly built car... let me know. They are all for sale!

he's just keeping it real
why do you want the OP bragging this # all over the "Internets" or at a meet and get flamed?OP, welcome and we all know the feeling.. enjoy the car...
Every dyno is different, Since dynapacks read at the hub, they will usually read higher than dynojets which measure at the wheel (nothing new here). However, a lot depends on how the dynapack is calibrated.
SC's dynapack seems to be one of the highest reading dyno's in the country. It's all about the gains though, do you have before/after comparison?
Btw, my car put down 400whp/415trq. on GRD's dynapack (with leaking Cosworth plenum). On Porsche Exchange's dynojet, it put down 390whp/400 trq.
Dynapack's have some of the highest amount of variance in numbers because a lot depends on user input/settings (very easy to inflate numbers imo). However, dynapack runs are usually very consistent and good for tuning purposes. Dynojets are usually a better indicator of what kind of power you are actually putting to the ground.
Anyways, Congrads on your success OP. Enjoy the new power.
