[QUOTE="Blades, post: 15901756, member: 4747"] Well, it likely makes about 600+RWHP (made 500+ at 3800-4000 rpm before a damn exhaust pipe blew off; it was slip on.. since changed to v-band for entire exhaust). I mean, hell with the stock motor at 5.8psi it made 526RWHP.. So.. 600 is probably a touch conservative; I just don't like to extrapolate. I'm running just under 10lbs on a larger Bullseye Power (which is a modded borg warner turbo).. I think it's an 83mm (I know it's a "BatMoWheel"). To be honest, I miss the quicker spool smaller turbo.. but that thing was way too small for 418. The reason why I'm keeping this restrained? The awful Fisher Price 4L70E.. It's built, but it's still a 4L70E. One of the most annoying parts of this stupid thing is the TCM doesn't doesn't obey converter lock parameters when you let off the gas (and not at all in 2nd gear).. So converter locks... let off gas.. and tada.. unlock. ANNOYING. I'm trying to think of anything else I do not like, but that list is pretty short. I will go 4L80E once I fully let go of my dreams of a 6MT. I'm not there yet. haha. I really loathe having 4 gears. Besides, a manual out of a SSR would be so much fun. It just hasn't been done yet and I'm not willing to commit to that right now. I really like how I can drive it just about everywhere with no issues.. And it even gets 18-19mpg if you pussyfoot on highway; 20 if you go slower than 55. Realistically it gets lower than that.. mid teens. I know it's funny to mention MPG with this, but it's just the kind of weirdo I am.. I appreciate full efficiency. I just know that if I were to turn things up, I'd have issues (with the transmission) for sure. I haven't brought it to the track either.. too far away from the good stuff in FL, time too limited. I hope I didn't miss anything. Here is an older video my friend took. Have it idling better now since. [MEDIA=youtube]EbOZHZk2vMk[/MEDIA] I'll try to get in-car video. [/QUOTE]
