I know. Not the greatest pic but you get the idea. This is on 22-23psi on race gas. The car is currently running 17psi on 93 octane and is still ridiculously fast. MUCH faster than it's last iteration.

As you can see from the dyno sheet the power band has been shifted to the upper RPM band. This isn't a problem for me (actually what I wanted) and makes it much easier to handle around town and for long trips. One tank on the way back to Texas from Norwalk, it got 34MPG!!!! Not too shabby. I make full boost somewhere between 4000-4500 rpms in case you're wondering.

Mods on the car ... there's a ton but just some things of note for the motor. JE 8.8:1 w/ .040" overbore, Eagle rods, street ported head by Eddie Fiero, Crower stage 2 cams (the first revision), AEM cam gears (though they are just used to adjust cam timing a bit), HRC port fueler w/ 500 or 550cc/min secondaries, S20-G, HRC 3" DP, 3" test pipe, Apex'i 3" N1, Crane ignition amp.

As for the power it makes. I have a suspicion there are a few people out there that have made more power than this on a 420a (I know of at least 2 and I don't think they frequent the board) so this isn't that huge a deal (it is for me but not in the big scheme of things).

What's next ... who knows. I'm glad to have the car back and running well. The interior is in shambles and needs some work. I need some track time to get ready for the next shootout. I'm also on the hunt for a BOV that sounds like a woman having an orgasm (or a girlfriend that gets off everytime I shift gears )!
