TC 400whp BOOM!!!

Dyno @ Boost For Boobies.

This TC made just under 400whp and wtq. It was only reving to 5,500rpm. Kept sputtering as soon as it his 5,5k and couldn't ever get past that wall. More tuning needed I guess.

Watch the Upper Charge Piping. Shortly after he turns headlights off, he starts the pull.

Better the charge piping than a cylinder, I suppose.

All the wires and such that are hooked into the dyno. PSI, ect.

He did 2 more runs. Have yet to upload the videos. I wanted to see it hit 400 being he was only reving to 5,500rpm before tuning issues came up.

I seen you roll into the garage for the dyno, but didn't stick around long enough to see the pulls. Nice numbers.

Got it put back on and then it kept breaking up because he mixed his E47 wrong not once, but twice before this so there was WAY too much 91 in the tank

We tried to turn the boost down and do some pulls in the rain to bandaid fix the tune before this but for some reason even on WG pressure it was hitting 24lbs and just spinning 4th. Oh well. Made 401whp on 23psi on a dyno dynamics before.
