I feel like I've seen a build of this car somewhere else recently, it looks familiar...

Anyways, and nice ride man!

EDIT: I see an identical car on Rochester_Spotted instagram...

 

[Mikeorock]

Thanks.. I'm in queens.. I'm on other sites too.. more pics and vids coming

 

[XpL0d3r]

Yeah, wasn't yours car I don't think.. owners friend stepped in and claimed it got like 430whp though.. pretty sure he's your twin they look identical.

In for pics & vids though

13 lbs of boost amd about 400 hp..

I've never understood when people say this.....do you not know what the car makes rather than an estimate. Seems like a fairly small turbo to need 13 psi for 400 horsepower on a K24

Meh, my car made 242whp on the dyno, I just round up and say about 250

I had it at 450 with a dyno tune.. Then i had cit viper tune it.. He tunes it online.. His tune was much better. Safer, But not as fast.. So i cant really tell you the hp without a dyno... Understand now??

I get how people use it to round up, but like you stated you have an exact number it made on the dyno. With all the testing i've been doing on my k24, if I were to round values up, I'd have a bunch of useless info for people because i'd have exaggerated claims of power and no way to prove it.

Yes I understand your use of the estimation....but I personally (notice it says personally) don't see the point in some random guess of power when you simply could have stated the before and unknown current output of the car in the original post, unless your butt dyno is so well calibrated that you deduced a 50whp loss via an e-tune.

 

[Mikeorock]

Sorry bro... Didnt mean to upset you.. Haha.. I figured people see a turbo, they would be curious of its power... Didnt think anyone would get offended.. The car feels almost as powerful as it did on the dyno tune. So i gave an estimate.. Wont happen again. Hope i didnt upset anyone else

 

[Mikeorock]

Anyway here is my old dyno sheet... I would say the car has almost the same power.. But much smoothed out qiththe vit tune.. I recommend him for anyone with a daily driver

This is actually the final dyno tune..

 

[XpL0d3r]

Ugh, Windows XP

Graph looks good though! Any current / future plans for the car?

My butt is that well calibrated.. in the passenger seat I can accurately say their hp down to 2 decimal places :lawl: nice car though, impressive numbers for stock internals

Thanks.. Yea those numbers were pushing the stock engine to the limits.. Almost in the dangerzone..
Future plans?? Im always doing something.. Gonna start working on the suspension.. Just put cable and base bushings in for the shifter.. Also gonna do the clutch delay valve removal

Nobody is upset....if you were around here long enough you'd see all the useless info posted by several people and understand my point. estimated and/or exaggerated figures make the forums a less useful tool for research.

and btw, 400-450whp with a K24 is not pushing the limits on stock internals

400hp nice!! Love the harness for the kid in the back too lol.

You can definitely see the much better midrange improvement in the tune, but the weird thing is, one is a proper 4th gear pull and the other is a 3rd gear pull. 3rd gear pulls will net you a lower peak power number because the gear ratio is not as close to 1:1.

How much torque did it make?

Take it to the track, that's the ONLY way to tell how much power it's really putting down.

What if you drive bad at the track?
