Default 1480bhp@ 20 psi and still going

We dynoed the motor for the Buick G/N last night and it made 1480hp @ 20 psi. This motor has a bit more hp in it since we got to the 1480hp number with no intercooler. We are putting a new set of heads on the engine today and will be re-dynoing with the intercooler on it this time. We are looking for around 1700hp@20-25 psi.

Here are the pics of the engine on the dyno and our dyno facility.

Wish the dyno's I went to recorded all that data.

Nice job on the car. Pics? Or video would be even better?

What size/kind of turbo are you running?

I will have video today or tomorrow when the beast gets back up and running. I will tell you it;s f-@#! awsome when it comes up on boost. It sounds like it is going to rip the dyno off the floor.

We also have a larger a/r turbine housing on the way. The back pressure was getting a bit high on the exhaust side.

Where was Backpress 1 measured? I assume it was pre turbine.

I like the craftsmanship in the work.

This is a little bit different set up than the norm. Ken put a 477ci V8 in it.

I know it hurts me too but atleast I got him to take the blower off the car and go with the turbo.

We measured the back pressure right at the turbine inlet. You can see the sensor in the pic of the motor on the engine dyno.

Bigger hot side FTW. You should still have a solid powerband, what you have already is rediculously broad.

The carb is from CSU they make great carbs for boosted apps.

The tq is funny a basic flat line you might say. 4700-7000 its almost straight across.

Can you say traction problem I knew you could.

We didn't check the inlet temps on this setup. On the last set up like this we had temps in the mid 200 degrees.

It sucks that they are putting a V-8 in a GN.

How much does something of that setup cost if you don't mind me asking, I might have future plans.
