[Greywolf74]

Just got this baby installed!

Love that procharger whistle!

Procharged cold start with cutouts fully open

Ohh Move Bitch!!! Mellow Yellow watch out!! I like it cheers

Love The whistle need to keep up to date with track slips. Or just go tear some ass up on the streets. I want that swap in my 48 led sled. Good job

@Greywolf74 I'm gonna need you to drive south to Kentucky so I can take it for a ride. My son absolutely loves the Dodge Challengers, he'd love this one!

I’m sure keep ur hands off rides aren’t for free.

Better have a Dyno slip on that 700hp lol

And you better drive it safe as I always would

Lexington is about 2.5 hours south of me. One of these days we should get the little ladies and meet up in cinci and have some dinner sometime.

Better have a Dyno slip on that 700hp lol

lol nah, its 700 crank HP, Its 590.2 WHP on the dyno. I just say 700HP so the lay-people understand its basically a hellcat now lol

And you better drive it safe as I always would

What is this word "safe"? What language is that?

 

[HPIguy]

Nice!!

 

[p0ndo]

It would be cooler if it was a Mustang lol. Pretty epic bro!

It's amazing how easy it is to make BIG HP on the new cars. I love the yellow too, it's an underrated/used color.
Congrats Bro!

Thanks Racer! Between the yellow and my exhaust cut outs I'm a huge cop magnet lol

I need to take it back to the performance shop that unlocked my ECU and did my tune. I'm experiencing some weirdness with shifting (or not shifting I should say), and now one of my tire pressure gauges on the computer screen says I have 39psi in my left front tire but I have no tire pressure sensors in the wheels.

Need to know what duty cycle your injector are at for the 600hp. Those numbers seem low for a 10-15 psi pro charger.

I've done 6-650 to the tire with an LQ4 6.0 and heavily ported TVS1900 blower (CTSV stock blower). On a LS7 the same blower was making 950-975 to the tire.

Were only running about 6lbs of boost. The 392's can't take much more than that without being rebuilt with forged internals.

Common misconception, you don’t need forged anything. I’ve watched stock bottom ends live through 1,600hp thrashings day in and day out. All that is needed is to open up the ring gaps. What will happen is they will begin to heat up and expand. If there isn’t enough ring gap, the compression ring ends will touch, fracturing the ring lands in the pistons. Your more at risk of blowing apart the plastic intake manifold above 10psi

I'm more of a driver than a mechanic so all I know is what virtually everyone says both from various tuning/race shops I've talked to and people online in forums etc. Just out of curiosity if all you have to do is open up the ring gap then why isnt that information out there? Why arent tuning shops or forum mechanics talking about this? Whats involved with opening up the ring gap? Is that something thats easy to do and I could get done for relatively cheap? Not saying your wrong its just that when you hear one person say something that contradicts what most other people are saying it tends to make one skeptical until shown otherwise if ya know what I mean.

A little background on me; I used to build race cars and high performance vehicles. There is lots of info on line about the importance of ring gap when going to forced induction. Its it easy to do; you have to take the pistons completely out of the block.

I've talked to my uncle who has been into drag racing alcohol funny cars for as long as I can remember and I've talked to a lot of the mechanics that he knows, some of them own performance racing shops and not one person but you has mentioned this. That being said Ill bring it up specifically to them and see what they have to say about it. Thanks

Here’s a link from wiseco pistons and one from diamond racing pistons. First 2 hits from a quick google search for “ring gap for boost”

there is LOTS of info on the web about it.

 

[Racer 1966]

1600hp on cast or even hyper pistons? I'm calling BS! The ring gap is very important as mentioned, no doubt. But so are pistons.

 

[TRAT]

I put a piston in my ass before cast or forged? Either way it felt weird

6.0 junk yard truck motor. Fresh bearings, added ring gap, stock rotating assembly. Aftermarket cam, heads, exc. twin GT40s (I think). It’s again, well documented on the web

And I like crackers with my tea just saying it’s good
