Turbo it to around 300 safe HP. What's your car weigh? Maybe 7-800 pounds? Using 800 pounds and 300 HP makes itapprox 2.7 pounds per HP(OR 700 pound car would be just 2.3 pounds per hP). Consider a 3500 pound car with twin turbo'd v-8 making approx 1200 HP.That would be 2.9 pounds per HP. The smaller car wins out!!! GO for it!

 I was watching some vids of the HP Wars in Glamis a couple years ago. The TomPro turbo busa car was barely,just barely,being out run by the really big HP dogs. You know,the 2000+HP guys. Honestly why pay $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for a big HP car when you can have the same perf for $$ with a busa?????? The ONLY thing the big cars can do better is hammer the terrain when a small car can't.

what he said ^^^  :D


fabr , did i tell you while talking to carl it dawned on me what was wrong with my busa engne all that time??   


i case i did not, ( still a bit painful to talk about lol ) so in a nutshell i forgot to re caliberate my gear position switch in bazzaz.  as you well know and i'm sure others know, the stock ecu has gear specific fuel/timing maps for set tps or map readings. N has its own fuel/timing map. part of a big push back when was a resistor that went inline with the gps ( gear pos sensor) to tell it that it was 5 gear to cancel the speed limiter plus more power in lower gears depending  etc etc .   so bazzaz has some default setting that isnt correct and i saw that before i shipped mine back.  it had a couple bad connections and bazzaz there there was an issue in a couple runs of harness's. i forgot to recaliberate it when i got it back. basically i was stuck in N map for most of the gears.

 5: Brian, you needed an ATRE... Advanced Timing Retard Eliminator.  I use the Healtech digital gear indicator that has one built in. Works very nicely.
See you all duneside.😎🤙

had one, never used it. that was why bazzaz allowed access to the gear position inputs. that TRE you speak of, for a busa basically tells the ecu it's in 5th gear for max full power and removes electronic speed restriction. the difference is you can set 1st and 2nd or how ever many as stock then set 3rd or 4th and up as 5th.  all as 5th if you wanted to, what ever you want. i thought i had set it and didn't. didn't remember that until i was talking to carl.

Nope but George and I pretty much agree on things. I miss George. Can you imagine how his truth comedy would go over today? The shit would hit the fan for sure.

Throw in Don Rickles and you have a PC disaster. I would have LOVED it for sure. Add a bit of Rodney Dangerfield and I'd still be laughing. That reminds me I saw Up In Smoke the other day. :m

For this year it will be NA, and next winter will be time for a turbo.  I think the car will weigh 1200 with me in it. 
Oh, the power to weight ratio is awesome!  That's why I like the small cars so stinking much.
