lame

 

i know thats the worst part!

 

but 90-130 horsepower.. i mean.. that's 280-320 at the rear wheels.. that's one hell of a a boost. heck that's on par w/a lot of FDs!

 

Questions that need to be addressed:

1. What kind of performance gains? (DYNO numbers, not estimates)
2. How reliable/durable is the setup?
3. Specifics on the warranty. If it is only good at 1 dealership, everyone outside the KC metro area is out in the cold.
4. How much $$$$?
5. When will it be available.

 

I want to know where AND when it starts to make power.

 

Anyone in the KC area want to call/visit the famous Larry Smith and get the info?

 

What is does for torque, it also does for power. The two are inextricably related to each other.

If you double the Torque at a certain RPM, you double the Power. If you double the RPM and keep the Torque the same, you also double the Power. It is a basic property of physics.

Nowithstanding differing units:
"Torque" * angular_velocity = "Power"

Cheers,
Hymee.

I stopped by Sunflower today to check out the car. Man that thing looks good. He has the MS kit on it and some nice 19s. I talked to Larry for about 20 minutes or so about the car. I got alot of good info. I'm going to wait and see the dyno numbers on it, but I think that I'm going to get it if the numbers are good.

please tell me you got pics

 

did you take any pics

 

I didnt have my camera with me. Ill be back up there next week. Ill be sure to take some pics.

 

Nope. Ill be back up there next week. Ill take my camera and get some pics.

 

and ask if you can take a pic of the keys and than steal his car :D

 

Its not running to its full potential. Larry said he is waiting for Maurice to finish the new PCM piggyback for it.

 

Any info worth sharing?

 

Just that it was goign to cost around $5500 for people who didnt buy there car there. The kit comes with the piggyback (from Canzoomer) and an exhaust. He said that the kit bolts into all stock holes on the car, and that if something happend to the car(under warranty) you could take it off and return it to stock without the dealer knowing you had it on. They are basically waiting for Maurice to finish the piggyback for it and they would be ready to dyno and sell the kits.

 

The s/c is easily removable, or just the piggyback?

 

Gimme a yell when you come up, I live 5 min from Sunflower. I am interested to hear the scoop on this car now, have they actually gotten it to work yet?

 

He said both.

 

Whoa!

I am anxious to see those pics.

Thanks for doing the leg work, Jump120MPH.

 

It is hooked up right now. The car is drivable, but with out the new Piggy back from Canzoomer they cant run the SC to its full potential. You can just go up there and talk to Larry Smith. He is a good guy. I talked to him for about 20min or so about the car. I wont be up there til Wed or Thurs.

 

So when is this supposed to be on the market again?
