yup
You cheated though, you have high compression lol!!! oke:
What makes you say that? The boost level?
yes. that a lot of boost for 91 octane.
He's not on 91 though. He's on 93. Plus it's not like he's in boost all time. Probably just most of it right now.:burnout:
simple solution to make more power, is to lower the boost and ADD more timing.. you set it up to make 16-18lbs of boost and run about 18*-19* of timing on pump gas, you will make more power.. then the same amout of boost on race gas, with 22*+ of timing and it will really shine!! more boost doesnt always mean more power.. chance's car makes great power for 12lbs of boost! makes more power then my car on 17.5-18lbs of boost.. just a thought for you... its your car and you can do what you want..
Why dont you still have the 18 degrees of timing, 91 octane, & 17 pounds of boost engine in your car? One more time for ya saleen, the engine is not "Built", this is a stock 04 cobra engine, yes it does have forged pistons/rods but it's never been opened. Chances, hate to tell ya this but my mph with a slipping clutch and a big bog off the line was right with your mph and that was no weight loss or swapping anything, just rode over kicked it on that 93 octane /14 degrees of timing tune and came up with a mph of 125.80 to go along with a lame 2.20 60ft. All you boys should get together and open a shop since ya'll apparently know everything. We never set out to have this much boost, it just happened, the blower came with a 3.2 pulley and after everything was done we had 23 in cool weather and now after some time the boost is down to 22. In the other thread ya'll haggle me on the boost and now after posting this ya'll haggle me cause for some reason it aint good enough for ya'll. I'm done with this and after my bud reminded me, i said yeah its dang true, he said now you remeber why you never post on that site.
Chances I do know about the sig but I rarely post so I never cared to have a "sig", although I will say I'm pretty dang proud of the fact I did Get on the Cover Of MM&FF's August '07 Issue for the cobra /mach shootout. Carry on and have fun I'll lurk here and look but that's it. Saleen mine is so safe my bud said I could put 89 in it and prolly not worry, now this was when it was doing 17 pounds so maybe I cant put 89 in it now, sorry you think its not gonna last but I think it willl be fine. Ya'll have fun.

Sorry for the double post but I had forgot to add wha pulley was on the d1 for redfire.
It more than likely woulda made more but it was a very hot & humid day so I think it did pretty good considering the weather down here. It woulda showed way more on race gas but the tires were spinning and 610 was the only documented number we saw. As far as I know these are corrected numbers. It did what it did. Sorry I cant please everybody here.

Haters wanna hate Jamie, and they don't even know how you drive:nonono: your car has close to 300RW more than it had before, once again congrats to you:rockon: You should maybe plan a winter trip to Fla.? Hit up Bradenton ,and also Sunshine in my neck of the woods is under renovation with new ownership and name Showtime, still an 1/8th..First I see your saying it's a built engine, this is a stock 04 cobra engine, if you wanna call that 'built' then that's cool. Ya'll can go on all you want about this. In the other thread you were haggling me about making this much boost on pump gas, now I'm underachieving. Let me know how fast you have ran so I'll have that to shoot for. Here's a little tidbit to chew on, on a dynojet, term with a 2.3 whipple pullied for 19lbs made 600 on race gas vs what I made on pump. Friend of mine has the term and then with a 35 shot made 650. My clutch slipped on a loaded dyno so I did'nt wanna go back to that one and went back to this one after my new clutch was broke in eventhough the car spun the previous time.

I bet his car busts everyones ass in this thread
Noone is bagging on you man! (except for the guy that called you retarded)
For the record, this guy earned it for taking my words of confusion about the lack of power and turning into me bashing him for not making enough. I was simply trying to figure out why it is so low for that setup and completely ready to offer some ideas for help. Thanks for calling me out on that though :thumbsup:
LOL at everyone that thinks we are "hating" on his car. There is an obvious confusion over his power numbers in comparison to his boost level, some people tried to offer help and ideas yet that is looked at as bashing? Come on....people need to chill the f*** out on the internet.
