Joe's GT Update

[QKSTNG514]

The new engine is in and operating quite nicely and after 500 miles of easy driving we made a few pulls on the dyno where the fuel limit was realized at the 1000hp mark.

This past week us and Stage 6 modified the fuel system to support up to 1500..

This included twin 60lbs injectors and additional fuel delivery.

Results so far are quite promising with a peak power output of 1181 RWHP and 1054 TQ......This my friends feels like a different car!!

This is with the same 35R Turbos that have been on the car since the install. We have the larger 45R's that Stage 6 may be installing next week if we get everything else done around our shops! LOL

Hi Tony,

That's amazing! What tire/wheel combo have you guys decided on for the street?

 

[tmcphail]

You need to feel that from the passenger seat ! I know I did today and cant wait for more. Then again I have what some call a sickness. :wink

I bet - too bad you're 3500 miles away from where I live! I'd love to try it, but then like Torrie I have the sickness so I'd end up doing the same thing.

Is there some reason Joe hasn't switched to the P-Zero Corsa's - are the Hoosiers better?

 

[QKSTNG514]

Have never tried the Corsa's.. So far the Hoosier's have done pretty well on Joe's GT..

I would be more then happy to take you for a ride in my car if you get down to FL :biggrin

It's a life changing event.

In what sizes are the P-zeros available? Source?

Nice!

I have been trying to keep up with this monster on the internet.

- Its great to see so many people coming together and putting a lot of blood and sweat to achieve a goal.

Cheers to the tuners and the mechanics for going out of their way to produce such an outstanding automobile.


I wish everyone who was involved in Joe's build (tuners ) , would work on corvettes :thumbsup


Best Regards

Bart,
I don't think they come in our sizes yet. Closest is the MC12, but won't fit us. If I hear news, will share.

It's a deal! I have buds in Orlando and Tampa - are u anywhere near there? PM me please so I can set my goals. I could use an excuse to visit FLA. One I'm working on with the missus is - your car is probably the most efficient way to clear the sinuses in Winter!

 

[tmcphail]

I am in NEFL in between jacksonville and daytona about an hour and a half away from orlando. Let me know I don't have to be asked more then once to pull that puppy out of the garage.

What cluth are you using?? Are you using the stock PP??

AMB

 

[tmcphail]

I will be using the SPEC clutch just like Joe has now.

 

[AMB]

tmcphail

Is it a complete PP and DISKS or just the two disks??

AMB

 

[QKSTNG514]

It is a complete kit with flywheel, discs, floater, pressure plate..

Complete just as you would buy it from Ford. Except able to handle more than twice the power...
