JWT TT Dyno at 12 psi boost
#16
Ah, ok I see what you are after.
The additional challenge you have is that your motor is not the same as their blocks. The car is a front midship cruiser that really is set up for handling, not stomping out a straight line against stangs and vettes. You can do it, but it is not as natural.
Somebody else will have to take the lead on this, but I don't think you are going to be able to run 15-16 psi on pump gas without detonation risks, certainly not in California on its designer 91 octane premium anyway.

Yeah 15-16psi maybe too much, but that is what I am trying to find out right now. I wouldn't mind having to mix a bit of Torco or 100 octane in the tank to give an adequate octane balance. I hear you on the 91 octane, I live in Calgary Canada and that is the best fuel we have at the pumps, only plus is no emission checks. Thanks for the help, you have given me the best info so far, it is a great start. Gotta do some checking into larger displacement shortblocks to, this may help me reach those levels on pump gas.
Take care and throw up a video of your car when you get it back, would love to see it in action.

Then we brought it down to LA, gave it a wash and some TLC, entered it in the DUB Magazine car show at the LA Convention Center, where it took third prize in the 2 door coupe category. We are going to send it back to VRT for some tweaking to get the suspension dialed in and check a gasket or two, and then we should be ready for some serious track time.
