Charley,
Who bought the car off of Jody?

I would be REAL nervous about taking that car to auction. I hope that car goes to someone who knows how to handle HUGE power.

camcojb 04-19-2010 09:35 PM

looks good other than the power is off; it made that much at only 4800 rpms, kept shutting off the dyno.

you know, it can run as low as 6 psi I think (can't remember what springs are in the wastegates). At the lowest boost it's very easy and predictable to drive. In fact it's pretty docile at 9-10 psi also in my opinion. At 15 psi it's an animal and beyond that you're on your own. But the good thing is you don't have to run a bunch of boost and it's still fun to drive. That's the great things about turbos, you can adjust the boost level in the car while driving down the road...................Definitely the nicest riding car I've ever owned as far as a muscle car goes. :)

rick k:thumbsup:

91 octane 15 psi.........only got to pull to 4800 rpm at that boost level because it shut the Dynapack dyno down (too much torque with 3.00 gears) Should be in the 850-900 rwhp range with a full pull, more with race gas.

http://camcojb.com/temp/malitude%20772.jpg

Did do a pull after at 9 psi and it was just over 620 rwhp at 6300 rpms or so if I remember correctly. Turn it down to 6 psi and it's absolutely pedestrian, anyone could drive it. Cool thing about turbos, you literally dial in the power from inside the car.

Jody
