So The Winner Is . . . . .

So as stated previously, I would post vids. Well here they are, four races in all.

My $1329 camera holder (a.k.a. - space between the headrest and seat) did quiet well if I do say so myself :lol:

Contenders :

2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt - Stock - 5 speed - 315 hp

1995 Volvo 850 T5 - 3" Turbo Back-R Manifold- 19T Wastegate - MBC:15psi to about 12) - 97 UK 5 spd ECU - 5 speed - 290 hp

Race 1 - 60 roll . . . then 50 roll <--- the first roll race is 60mph, both in third - you can see when the boost hits, Ben does get a slight lead, but then starts to fall back as I get into my powerband and he falls out of boost . . . . second race is 50mph, Ben in third, I am in second and you can see I pull away harder as the mph go up . . .

Race 2 - 40 ? - short roll - then driver switch . . . . . <---- in this race, its just a quick 40 roll into third then let off . . . but in the second race, another 40 roll but DRIVER switch . . . . :o and nice work on zooming in when setting up the camera BEN . . . :lol: :lol: :lol:

overall was fun finding Ben's boost leak and racing around, round 3 we shall see what N/A cams did . . . .

and let me know if vids work !

thanks !

Ah the sweet sounds of our turbos under load.....mm mm good!

In the second it seems like the 850 kept pulling ahead.....would it have one if the race continued?

well I am a good driver (since I was driving the 850 . .) :lol: . . . but eventually the Bullitt would have caught and passed like it did in the first vid . . . if ben didn't go soft with it :ph34r:

Sweetness. I put the n/a cams in tonight, and I'm doing my 302mm brakes tomorrow so we'll have to do it again.....although at idle, my vac is 13-15 :lol: .....so I'll have to work that out before I really beat on it. Hopefully it's enough to keep up next time?

you should bring that bullit to carlisle.

:lol:

ben, your shit is slow; i have absolutely no problems handing a new mustang GT its ass and the only difference in mods really with my car and yours is your manual spec chip vs my auto mapped BSR chip.

srsly :lol:

seriously? :lol: "the only dif between our cars is that mine isn't chipped....and yours is".....soooo you automatically have another 40-50hp on me :arob:

Yeah we fixed the leaks before we played on the highway, but I was still unable to hold higher boost :( That's why he pulled in the top end....also, turbo cams suck :lol: And it's not that I don't know how to drive my car, but I don't want to break anything, it's old :( ...:lol:
