Thread: Some changes before hitting the track

should be the same

Same pistons @8k all day

You made 450+whp on the DE?

I wanna hear more on this setup! Comeon!

Do you think the will clear 16ve cams ?? I have heard of guys with stock det pistons trying it , but never heard any results

16VE cams just went in 15 mins ago.

Made a few pulls to 8k. No problems. Tuning to come shortly, the meth richened the tune up a bit.

Car feels like an animal @ 14psi Boost controller and 20psi to follow.

457hp @ 15-17 psi (boost creep) the night before the Georgia convention on the DE.

Added the VE head and cooling mist meth injection kit last week. The car has seen many changes over the past 2 years. Its been down the strip, around the road course and up and down the east coast. Even drove it back to CT from the convention. Besides grenading 2 tranny's its been a beast, it doesnt want to die.

That's great to hear. Good to hear everything is running good on the SR16 cams. How is the pull up top compared to the 2.0?

These cars when built right just won't die lol. I broke my tranny the end of last year too, but it is fixed now. My car has seen over 100 drag passes easily and many 500 mile road trips. Like 15-20 lol. Amazing cars.

I am really interested to see how your car does. I'm always looking for other guys trying different things on the VE. As you prob know, I love trying different stuff out lol. Can't wait for results man.

How high you revving on your setup right now 8500? I wonder how the P/P and valve job will affect the performance overall. The GT35r on 20psi should be making 500whp or so for sure. Excited for you man, congrats.

I think the PP and valve job was on the DE head ...

You can do the same to yours. Just add a VE head

thing looks very well put together i cant wait to see it go at the drag day
