Regardless of what it makes, numbers are just a figure dyno's pump out. Each one will read differently. If it doesn't reach 500 on a mustang dyno but does on a dyno jet so be it. It'll still be a fun car to run around in.

Dyno's are just a tuning tool. It's the number at the end of the track that tells the real story.
Every time my car hits the dyno it goes right to the track that sane week, a lot if time that day to see real works numbers to go with the dyno number. As most know I'm sure, the peak number isn't what really matters. It's the average number over a 3k rpm range that matters. This car is going to have a great power band.

Car is down right now. Head lifted a week before Christmas and blew the head gasket at a water jacket which then damaged the block some. It was mostly my fault. Got lined up to race a good friend of mine in a local KOTS race. He has a wicked fast Evo 1 that dead hooks. I turned the boost up a little in hopes of being able to run him down. Didn't work out that way. New block with some eagle rods and CP pistons are going to Martin next week. Nothing fancy just a .020 over stock compression motor with arp's and .8 apexi head gasket. 11.90 @ 120 is its best so far. Will be turning the boost up when back together now that it won't be on stock head gasket and head bolts anymore. Ouch

this is by far one of the nicest builds i seen so far. The craftsmanship in the body work is very good, no short cuts, i know cause i used to work in a bodyshop. lots of pictures for people to see what you do. one day I hope to have a build like yours with lots of work put into it. keep it up!

My new turbo is a GTX3076R with the larger .82 back side. I may be shy of my mark of 500 on pump, but I'll hopefully have a larger mid and topend. Quote:

My GTX3076R with a single scroll .64 AR turbine housing did 460rwhp on pump gas with a couple more degrees of timing and a point of AF left on the table. My knock sensor was not showing anything unusual and the tuner said we should be able to get to 500 on pump but beyond thar it would start to grt sketchy. Since it was already 7:30 at night we called it done. Now that it has a couple thousand miles I would go back and dial it up, except the tuner is 200 miles away.
My setup is a heavily ported DET head with HKS solid lifter valvetrain. A VVL head and an 82 AR housing should definitely do 500. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk

Glenn, I am jealous to no end. I have A1 credit, but a large credit to debt ratio- meaning buying a house is not in the cards... I'd love to be keeping the car on the back burner in the name of owning real property.
Congrats dude!

So today I made some head way. I know it's been awhile since this thread had see. An update, but life, the house and other things have unexpectedly pushed the car to the back burner.
As some of you know, I was having an issue with my ATS/IAT reading about 30-40 degrees off from ambient temps. I finally got around to testing the sensor itself and eventually contacting Haltech to see what the issue could be. The sensor checked out fine, so I immediately thought it was the scaling. Turns out that the scaling for the IAT sensor I have isn't listed on the drop down menu nor on their site. They had to email me the correct calibrstion for the sensor. Once plugged in, the car fired right up and idled great. I have my vac readings back, although a little lower than anticipated. The car will rev now, as before any throttle input and it wanted to die. It's running extremely rich(9.5-10AFR) but it runs and will move under it's own power. So, I'm finally making steps in the right direction with getting this thing on the road. Soon, hopefully very soon, I'll be able to take the car around for a ride. Thanks for looking. http://s627.photobucket.com/user/jr_...e2a62.mp4.html

Well, I pulled her out of the garage tonight and installed my passenger side skirt, changed my spark plugs back to heat range 7. I had swapped them out to see if it would change anything at idle when I was diagnosing my issues. While it was out I snapped a few pictures of it in natural light. Artificial just doesn't do it justice.

Total inspiration! I almost went ahead and started preparation on building my det head to be a high reving 4 pot screamer but i am now sold on the vet!
Trying to find a 20v ve head in the UK is proving to be quite a task but I am determined and have time to complete a dream engine |

Yer I realised that, was just going on the 'forum' info found on the net that the '20v' head (Neovvl) is the one to go for for better results??
If a standard head from any Nissan Primera will do then I'm well happy cos there are loads around me but haven't seen any NeoVVL rocker covered heads |

I agree with everyone else, while a 20V head would be great, the expense vs rewards isn't worth it. You'll make plenty of power on a P11 head.
I'll update this while it's bumped. I haven't worked on the car in the past few months much. I've been organizing and trying to get the garage at the house where I want it. I still have some things left to purchase for it(the garage) but that requires money, money just so happens to end up in other aspects of my life right now and not my pocket or the savings account. I had to add some lighting in the garage as well. The old dude that owned the home before me only had a keyless light fixture to illuminate the entire garage, that wasn't going to work for me. I like a bright work area, as most do. The fixtures I used are from Atlas lighting and feature 4 T5-HO bulbs, needless to say, the three fixtures light up the garage nicely. Floor space is a necessity and with all the crap I have, this was a great option to get my tires off the floor and into a space that is both out of the way and easily accessible. The entire garage was painted, except the ceiling, which honestly wasn't a huge deal to me. I used different shades of grey/gray and think it turned out nicely, although I'm biased. With the garage 90% squared away, I decided it was a good time to bring my car down. I borrowed my buddy's trailer one day last week to make the move. So, when I went to grab the trailer, no more than 5mins after I grabbed it, I got a friendly visitor. My friend had cut off the fenders, with that went the license plate mount. He has a rather large jeep he pulls to RYC and other jeep oriented events, so the fenders were in the way. Easiest way was to chop them off, atleast the Statey was cool about it. Loading up at my mother and father's place. I have never driven a twin disk clutch before. It will take some getting use to because I stalled probably 6-10 times getting it up the trailer, while still being careful not to launch a ramp or my car off of it. Unloading at my house... Finally in the drive way and garage... Now that the car is down at MY house, I can continue with removing the harness and sending it back to ChaseBays for I hope what will be the very last time. Once these issues are worked out I will schedule an appointment with a Local tuner that has been tuning Nissans for years. This is far from over...
