20" R888 will probably still be useless on the 850hp setup. but that depends on time of year etc. i think i recall 800hp being where the r888's no longer hooked in 2nd from 45mph
I have "heard" some people using 20 " nitto drag radials with success at 1000hp.. but im more than skeptical. when...
Thank you all
I did actually take the seats out for this, hence the dirty fingernails lol
all in all, it dropped 96.4lbs from my usual raceweight of 4390 w/ full tank + driver so right at 4300 lbs. i tried to scale it there, but was closed/off and they wouldnt open it. but ive scaled the car...
Well.. If you go back and peruse some original posts by me, i stated for a long long time I planned on modifying the car, and obviously have but with target of 750hp on pump and 850hp on E85.
That came and went in what, 2 months? Then I said I dont even like/want to drag race the car, but its...
thats what I said lol.
BAP not reccommended, ive heard a few guys killed pumps with them. stock fueling good to high 8xx's, technically low 9xx, but if your going that high, fuel system, is the way to go anyway.
I dont have to have driven a zl1 to know what a heavy boosted v8 with low rpm redline & traditional automatic paired with horrible road manners feels like.
Conversely, the 500 is in another realm, as described by every single person that has driven it, to include magazine reviewers...
you wont hve a true understanding until you drive the 500. I dont care what car you cross shop, your not gonna find the fun you have in a 500 anywhere close to this pricepoint, and you wont understand the major differences in tradeoffs the rest make you live with
100% factory brakes and suspension, full weight +. weighed in at 4380 with me (180) the otherday after going 9.3/152mph
You dont need clutches
I do have a sperate trunk mount tank that replaced the OEM.
Jason for reference just went 9.19/150 same setup as me, minus clutches and ice tank
the...
My and 1320Junkies cars are full weight 1krwhp deep 9s 150+ mph. you wouldnt ever know it if you didnt punch it. Ken / PBD can give you tunes for whatever you want to do with the car. this isnt old school tech. tldr; PBD has not yet found the tipping point of streetcar vs race car trade-offs...
low pressure wont hinder performance. on the latest tcm s/w changing tire size will, unless changed in the bcm module. I dont know the variance, only that on stock size calibration, the 325/35/18s work fine, but 305/45/18 do not and throw an ABS code. No idea if it hinders performance, but i...
i have oem front tires and r888r rears. they can get a little hum to them, nothing exhaust on normal or above wont handle, or a low volume radio on. other than inhibited wet traction, no other downsides. phenominal grip even stock and up to about 800rwhp
