people tend to use sae corrected dyno values. correction factors over 1.05 or .95 tend to be less reliable since the further away from 1, the dyno error is more prevalent and the rwhp is less realistic according to the local dyno owner.

that would have been nice to get corrected #'s, however the conditions I was running very very extreme and difficult to get. most mustang owners or american tuners like SAE, but if I my dyno run was corrected for the extremely high tempetures my car was dynoing at, I dont think it would have been a fair for me, and not as intresting for the rest of you . If God gives me a cool day in the valley once I get tunned, I will get some SAE uncorrected times just to satisfy you

Paint job? $450.00

Labor and bodykit? Priceless (Custom kit basically)



BTW, my 346 rwhp FD took out a 420rwhp XS tuned R34 on sunday at the BQQ off the line. Pretty happy with that . Makes me want to get tuned even faster!

No, I don't think so.....
The 1st race you lost pretty bad (due to whatever reason). The 2nd race you barely edged him out only in the very end, and that was due to the r34 mis-shifting.

I launched in 3rd the first time, since I didnt pay attention , thats why I there was no launch , dam short shifters. Anyways, and yeah it was only 1/8 of a mile and I did pull on him and win didnt I? Keeping off the line with an awd R34 that can just rev up to 8k and dump the clutch is pretty hard aint it? They asked if he wanted to go again, but I heard he decilned.

Ahhhhhh!
Marvin, be careful otherwise you won't be able to fit your head into the FD anymore.



Just kidding. You beat him.

So the guy doesn't mis-shift when he's racing anyone else but all the sudden it happens when he's going up against a reasonably equal opponent?

And then he disappears after he gets back?

And he doesn't want to race again?

Interesting.
If you ask me, he lost. And he didn't mis-shift.

Of course, I could be wrong... but unless you heard his tranny grind out at the end of that parking lot or were in the car, I'm gonna be inclined to say that he just got what he deserved.

Good thing you beat him too.
Or else I woulda had to get more gas and come back.
Since I'm such a big racer.
