Who Tstone with is 100shot. Lots of the SC guys are using spray I guess they're jealous of the numbers the LSJ-Ts are hitting!

So 9996lbs?? Just joking around. If you beat me it'll just give me a goal to aim for that's all. That's the cool thing about cars you can always improve it

is trifecta still doing tunes jonathan? im searching my options here soon, i need a new tune.
It's all in good fun

Of course Trifecta's still running - don't buy into typical CSS bashing;
I would think that considering you have only had a couple smallish changes in the past, that as long as you're not doing (lets say) a turbo swap, that you should be good for free revisions - but, if there are extensive enough changes I will be required to do an upcharge (I did warn you about this before you ordered), otherwise shoot me a call, let's meet up and we'll take care of this.

Does your comment mean that I'm going to see a repeat of this;

You should this season. Tom here in MB is currently getting his ZFR set up term tuned on 28psi. I'll have I set my car on kill as well and have him a pull. Should be a good race.

even still 318 just blower thats pretty impressive too.



i will use trifecta to fall back on for a tunning source if my hpt ventures dont pan out. i do have 2 ecu so i plan on using the second one for hpt. i will assume vince will want some extra coin, which is all good. i think you deserve some cash too. i need to message a couple of guys before i let you know for sure if i need it or not.

as for me putting bus lengths on you, i highly doubt, thats blue's job. hahahahahahaha but i think you might be in for a surprise. you know me just doing my part to put a end to the notion that all m62 cars are slow. i know for sure a dyno will be in need and some track time this YEAR! i have high hopes for solid numbers on pump.


@ blue i have no plans to go turbo at all. i plan on staying m62 until i see what happens with japeatr's build.

meh, it was all in good fun.
I expected Dustin to beat me, but I couldn't have forseen such a ROYAL whooping

I will never have a car expecting to be the big guy on the block ~ I'm in (regaurdless of car) for fun, and racing is just more or less a slide rule for me - I really wanted to race Mark's old (read: pretty much stock) LSJ against my Grand Am...
I'd still like to see how my GA can hold up against a stock (or nearly stock) LSJ.

Did Sammy keep the dyno and set it up at the new shop?
Did he ever get it all ironed out?

... I think most people forget that stock for stock there's only about a 20-30whp difference between LSJ & LNF - I still like the LSJ, nothing has changed there.

sammy has the dyno but has yet to put it in the new facilty. he may end up putting it in goeff's shop. you could only imagine the mess it would create next door at the liquor store if he strapped his car down. really that dyno is essentially for his car hahahahaha. he never really thought of selling dyno packages for the business.

I'd come there to see that race would be great. I'd give a slight edge to the ZFR

You'll learn one day haha. With us Canucks having no E85 going turbo is the only way to go. I see this now. Looking at 3rd gear hpt logs my car currently on 23psi, 91 pump only is slightly faster than my TVS was last year on race gas/meth...

To be honest you could tell my car had more torque than marks but when i rode in his i thought with his topend he'd beat me. Remember mark i said now i want topend like that. Well now i do finally

For me it costs a lot to go e85 for my fuel mods but totally worth it. I still love the idea of a stand alone fuel system injecting through a 5th injector with either race fuel or meth

Till something in the system fails and the motor pops lol. That's one thing I love now. No babysitting meth injection anymore. Although I do miss the gains, it's a PITA at times.

Tell me about it I bought a AEM flow gauge and it works intermittently so I don't know if it's the gauge or the meth so I understand that. In a stand alone I'd get a fuel pressure gauge and at least I'd know if fuel was getting to the injector or not

lets remember, once again it isnt completely all about all out hp to me blue. dont get me wrong i do love hp, however its about being satisfied within your means. i am happy with pounding on a m62. i am also happy knowing where i am at with the m62 in mods and power. if japs experiment becomes successful i will seriously consider upping it to the 1900. lets not forget i do have other goals in life, such as traveling. i feel i have spent enough in this car recently to be happy for a while. do realize this i have done some major changes and i hope it all works out in the end.

I ran a pressure switch on my meth also. As I was passing someone in 2nd blowing the tires off I didn't catch the gauge in time that my meth wasn't on and busted a ring land. Granted I wasn't shy on the meth injection. My car relied on it for fueling. But really if you run meth to the point where the car doesn't rely on it, the gains are minimal.
