I'll find out more after I go back in for the dyno. Let's see if these actually produce any power before I start talking about price

Good luck!

dlbrooks18 · 03-08-2010, 03:04 PM

so sounds like we will definitely see some results on the dyno by Friday, right?

jpsimon · 03-08-2010, 03:24 PM

Hopefully. it depends on their schedule and the weather. We want to keep the variables as close as possible to the first time we dynoed the car. I'll be on the same tank of gas, so hopefully the temp drops back down to where it was when we first dynoed the car, which it looks like it will by friday.

ridin135 · 03-08-2010, 05:05 PM

You are getting those 70-100 miles that day right. I am tired of waiting, lol

jpsimon · 03-08-2010, 05:06 PM

yeah of course, i gotta get that out of the way asap.

klipseracer · 03-08-2010, 05:46 PM

You're going to climb mount everest too that night, right?

jpsimon · 03-09-2010, 02:09 PM

The car will officially be ready tomorrow, at which point I will disappear and stop giving updates

mkPOTO · 03-09-2010, 02:24 PM

Lol......we will send out a search party if we don't hear from you within 24 hours

Breaking News!

EPL has hit an apparent snag with the Turbo Encabulator Module(see below), for those that don't know they are using a miniaturized version of Dodge technology to be the surrogate compressor housing for the stock twins. This dramatically reduces the developmental and material costs which is partially why their innovative product is able to be sold at such a steal and provide better results than other compressor only turbo upgrades. Since this key component is going to need some further troubleshooting and re-development, this will cause a delay which they will be resolving it as soon as possible. They are doing extensive diagnostics and are promising to give updates as they arrive. Bottom line, if not done next week, it will be finished the following week... Hopefully.

jpsimon · 03-09-2010, 10:49 PM

this wait has been as hard as when I was waiting for the car to come from the motherland

klipseracer · 03-10-2010, 12:14 AM

Don't be too bashful to tell us about your dream tonight. I mean, as long as its about the car... Wait. This is getting a bit weird.

BES335xi · 03-10-2010, 03:17 AM

Well a car can be considered a phallic symbol - but that's just the Freud in me talking
