ij ust dont see how that dyno was for the same setup?

i mean they use two totally differant turbos two totally differant manifolds, the car that DID put down 600 WHP used a water-air intercooler and had no exhaust and was probably running some pretty agressive cames based on what i heard with the pross car


now it may be the same MOTOR in each car but that doesnt mean i can post a dyno of some 800 WHP car because my motor is also using pauter rods and wiseco pistons


john posted that dyno to imply that it was his, saying u took it with your cellphone kinda means that u are saying its yours. after he posted it alot of people quoted it and started going wowzers over the #'s and he never corrected it....

i dont really care, the purpose ot this thread was not to oust him and get every1 pissed @ him, i legitimatly wanted to know what kind of power he is actually putting down

 

oh dont get me wrong.. the cars look nice...

But mad powa is dam sexxxxy!

If i would have voted... it would have gone to one of these two guys..

 

oh, and im not pissed about the voting... if i had lost yea id be pissed if this came out after, but since i tied i dont care, i also wish for the voting more pictures of the car were used and details of each, since it was pretty important

 

I disagree with whoever said that this statement implies that the dyno is of his car... I admit, I too thought that it was, but I think thats because we either A. didnt read carefully, or B. just plain misunderstood. I dont think he was implying... hear me out:

Had MadJohn put a couple more words in there I think it would have been much more clear, for example:

"this is at the veryedge of the envelope, the only thing holding me back FROM THIS is the turbo and the driveshafts....shit"

had those words been there I would have immediately understood that he was saying he would have to upgrade his turbo and driveshafts to put down those numbers, instead of assuming that the dyno was his. but we have to remember, madjohns english isnt always perfect. He didnt really say anything wrong, we just jumped all over what we would have liked it to be and made assumptions. our fault, not his. theres my 2cents


EDIT- I do however agree that the misunderstanding probably should have been corrected... but maybe he thought we were just liking the potential of his car? i dunno...

 

RedZ, by saying that hp was primarily what I had based my vote upon I meant that it was obvious to me that to achieve such awesome numbers, a lot of hard work & dedication had gone into the project. For someone to love their car & the scene so much that they would put all their blood, sweat, time & money into it means that they deserve my humble vote in such a contest. I wouldn't say that there is anything particularly special about the appearance of MJ's car but it sure as hell isn't ugly either.

That said, Viper's car is awesome too... But I only had one vote to give.

TibMinn, you can disagree with me all you want but my take on the whole of MJ's thread (not just from what had been quoted in this thread) is that hp claims were made, a dyno sheet was posted, praise was showered upon MJ & MJ seemed more than happy to suck it all up. I'm not saying he's a bad guy or that he asked for all the arse kissing he received in that thread but it would've been very easy for him to say: "Guys, this isn't a dyno of my car but it's from another Tib with a very similar setup to what I currently have".

i'm gonna be doin the COTM the way i would have liked it to have been. ever since the auto merge, cyber had to do it a different way. it will be better here on out

 

im sorry OZ, your right. I dont know the whole story... just based off what i knew thats what I saw

 

^ Don't apologise to me mate... You beat me on Google fight so I guess that makes me your b!tch now wink1.gif

 

Viper,

post up your 389WHP dyno graph......

 

True true, that is standard for a drag spec "only" here.. now on my frame i have had the seams respotweled ever 1cm the the 2in appart from the factory. there is no need to cut up the tibby the frount bumper is just that a bumper there is nothing behind it




I will make a specical video for you big dog, as for the piping the koreas love it and the guys that build it make nothing but custom setups for all rides



I say do it



now that is cool ##'s what if i was to tell you you can hit that on stock rods and pistions

i sold my pistiond and rods need money bad so i put in 1.8l rods and pistions and still i am hitting 450hp so when i go to pohang " where the dyno is and is 1 hour away from the hyundais's main plant" i will get you a video so all of your concerns are put to rest

FYI my turbo is a IHI Rhx6b = to a td07 I think.. and 3 in down pipe into 4in pipe back

if we need pic or me in a thong taking the pics for proof not a problem G's

Let the witch hunt began
