How much longer are you planning on being in SoCal? I'll send you a PM.

 

Good luck with the build Dave! Don't forget some pics/vids of the build!

 

I am getting used to it actually. I do not think I have the conversion as it is very easy to depress.

 

Epic numbers!

 

Thanks Asher. I'll need it. Since you asked, here's the first pic.





Cool. I'll be curious to find out how hard it will be to depress without the assist.

Thanks!

 

Why not Carrilo ?

 

Do you have any pbox times or videos of the beast in action those are serious power figures?

 

Proto uses Pauter so I figured my tuner knows best. Actually, I considered several brands but Pauter is local to me. I'm sure Carillo makes a nice rod too but there have been discussions about shaving down the oil pump to fit the rods and that's not something I want to get into.

I weighed all rods and the specs on these beauties are tight. All were within +/-0.5g of 535.0g (including bolts). These are a nice set of rods.



Not yet but will do after the motor upgrade.

 

Fair enough but I would have tested it to make sure the power you were running wasnt just dyno HP if you know what I mean!

 

Power should be similar before and after the motor upgrade--just reinforced to better handle the power.

 

.

Ahh okay well good luck.

I Look forward to when it's finished as it will be amazing.

 

Well, thats just sick!

 

Big fan of Pauter Rods... went through several motors on my Audi S4 .. blocks .. pistons heads.. been using the same set of Pauter Rods since the beginning. Car made 720 AWHP on Dyno Dynamics.. 860 AWHP on DynoJet

 

Congrats! That's a insane power ToddK has put into your baby!

 

Great job! With stock engine ... ? Fine! Only 3076, 044er, exhaust, software, and ... ? 983whp/963tq with E85 ... Great. What parts you changed too ? How boost ? Tip or 6M ? Any 60-130 (better 100-200 an 200-300 times?) ?
