Yep our dyno shop is moving 3 blocks East on Cerritos. He plans on moving during the first two weeks of July. Going to a much bigger shop that can handle 30 cars. He said he is looking forward to continue doing business with us.

 

30 cars = 29 also rans + 1 Black Em Effin Killa Kamaro

 

Manny,Moe, & Jack have been replaced by Kenny,Jimmy and Mike

Go Peppa' Boyz

 

Or do you mean Moe, Larry , & Curly

 

Sarkis probably thinks that car is jinxed and doesnt want it any where near his shop. Its broke both times its been there.

 

Did Sarkis give them his new address or just tell them hes moving.

 

All I know is that after the second pull he called someone and a small crowd had developed by our fourth pull. The parking lot looked like a scene straight out of “Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift”. It was kind of a weird feeling having import guys cheer when you hit a magic number…

 

4 for 4 in driveshafts?

 

Probably, pic-a-part is only a block away.

 

In your ****> dreams

 

Actually they were there to pick up a Supra or two that had been tuned earlier in the day. But it looked like F&F though.

Sarkus knows enough not give give away numbers to 3rd parties but once the "Black Oppressor" gets smogged and is good for a couple years I can guarantee it will have some more power on tap after it is tuned for WOT.....

 

If you guys were any more full of ****, your eyes would be browner than mine. We dont buy it any more.

 

We just can't win with you guys. We keep info to ourselves and then you call us secretive. We let you know what's going on and you call us full of sheet. We have a history of doing what we say and saying what we do with results on the track to prove it. I can guarantee you we will prove our word again and y'all will be forced to do another round of upgrades to compete with us.

 

So what kind of Horse power it's putting out if there's no secrets? If you can't tell it then you guys are full of We hold no secrets on this board. We just give a lot of props.

 

The problem isnt with telling info, the problem is telling the truth. Look at your broken driveshaft thread. First you said it happened on the freeway. How long did it take before you said it happened on the dyno? We dont know what to believe, and frankly, I've given up listening to you guys.

 

That statement is a lie itself...between Allen's secret special engine he's building or Don's super secret manifold, there seems to be a lot of secrets around here.
Also, when Mike and James were on top, the excuse was always, "Well James put more money in that's why they were winning"...then people proceeded to get new cams, intakes, heads, etc. I dont know anyone who has gotten into the 12's for free. There were no props given, just hating and excuses.

 

If you showed up to the meeting Allen brought some of his "super secret" parts for show'n'tell. I dont know what's so secret about us, though. Allen's posted his intentions in the form of questions all over this board, especially the TPI forum. Don has no super secret manifold I know of, just Jerry's old cam. I'm getting Allen's old heads and Tom's old cam. Julie is getting my heads and Don's cam. What secrets? Vincent is the only secret I dont know about, but he has enough trouble keeping the car together and running.

 

All you had to do was ask . Baseline the car put down 378RWHP and 408RWTQ.

Keep in mind this is absolutely no real WOT tuning and without installing the 58mm throttle body or other intake refinements. James is in the process of tuning for WOT on his custom chip. Once he's relatively comfortable with the graphs we'll strap it down again and hopefully squeeze a little more out of it.

These numbers shouldn't be a surprise to anyone; it's pretty much what we all expected this particular combination to yield. But before we do anything else Ken needs to get the car smogged.

 

so does this mean Ken's not selling it anymore? Just wondering. By the way, those are some damn good numbers and they're only going to get better.

 

impressive both the numbers and the bs to get the info.

 

Remember the last go around our antics yielded an entire field of 12-second cars. This time around it’ll be 11’s.

Signed,

-The Architect-

 

That's f**king BS now I have to get into my motor and change some things. Thanks Mike lol jk those are grate numbers so when you get to the strip who is going to be driving this beast. I just want to know if I can gut my interior if I cant beat you with raw power than Ill do it with a lighter car .

 

I've been told that I must submit a $1,000 clutch / transmission deposit before I am allowed to put the vehicle through its paces. The last time I handed someone a $1,000 I got a lot more than a spirited ride in a third gen. It was more like I ended up in the fetal position on the floor of a cheap Las Vegas motel room.

 

HAHA so from what I hear about the driving skill of your partners in crime if your not the one banging the gears it's still going to be a 12 second car.

 

Your Honor, I would like to present State's evidence item "A"
And item "B"

 

There is no doubt in my mind it is capable, I was guessing 380- 415
BUT I still call

 

hey if it gets everyone in teh 11's i say more power to ya. But.. i think it'll be hard without bumping up the cid or everyone going superram. There's a lot of **** in Ken's car and it WILL be the fastest with a good driver. I say let Don drive it and see what it's really capable of. He always takes everyone out the gate and gets beat topend.
----------
I'd say 11.8 with a good driver

 

Really? That’s incredibly optimistic of you. Perhaps you could share with us exactly how you came to that conclusion.

 

I brain washed him LOL!
Or....he is just brown nosing me for favors j/k

 

Why keep fing around like this.
Just add nitrus and a blower and go for 9's

 

well I am predicting 11.86@115.91 MPH with a 3500 race weight with driver, 18% driveline loss with 390 RWHP. The MPH may be a little lower due to the high stall converter.

I won't go into any further details until we start executing the plan.

 

I hope it is true. It will make for an interesting year.

 

High stall converter in a stick-shift car? Now I'm really confused.

 

I wonder will they attend the next dyno session with us. Interesting to see the final numbers from most of our cars with all aside. I don't care what that car puts out. Heads up will tell it all.

 

Well if Vince went 12.4 with lesser gears and around 40 less hp i figured it would be worth about a half second once it's dyno tuned. Plus Vince's is t top and thats some more weight than Ken's car. I've been wrong before.

 

From what they say, I'm at 373hp@411tq. That's 5 less on hp and 3 more on tq. Dyno 2000 shows simular numbers. And the cold part about it, It's not fully tuned yet. Battle of the biggest *****.

 

Those times that weekend are with a tailwind strong enough to blow over one of the outhouses on that weekend. I have a friend who also raced that weekend and he went .15-.20 seconds faster than he went before. They had to stop racing for a while and then only went the 1/8th. They can keep those times but they will be hard to duplicate or repeat without similar conditions.

The car needs a lot of work to get it where we want it to be in order to run the numbers i expect to get. As we form a plan and then execute the plan it will all come together.

We got a baseline dyno run and until the car is smogged, the mods in the boxes are installed, and the car is dialed in to where a dyno will verify where I think it is, there will be no point is wasting the money just to get a number that will change a week later. If you guys wanna pay for the dyno then I'm sure we can arrange for the car to be there but otherwise is may not be good for us.

Vincents dyno numbers are with the 58mm TB and Jerry's intake. Vincent has significantly more time invested in the chip than ken does. So if Vince has a lot more in the chip then I imagine Ken does two fold. I haven't even scanned or looked at Kens chip. It is what is was before the exhaust upgrade or whenever the last time ken or Kevin messed with it. Ken's dyno run was run through his mismatched paper filters, stock y-intake, and 52mm TB. Those that know me know I usually run it how it is driven on the street. No tricks or changes just to get a better number. It is what it is. I'm sure at Ken's power level that removing the intake completely or at least using K&N filters will give better results. Also the number 5 spark plug wire is pretty crispy so it needs some new wires that won't melt on the headers.

 

ive been wrong before lol

 

I'm betting on Vincent! He spends a lot less time bragging...

I'm curious about James' truck. Isn't that a TPI?

Also, what is Jerry going to bring to the track next time? He has been awful quiet! It will be interesting year, like Allen said.

And a whole new track.

 

Who's bragging? I stated what our goal is and where we expect to be.

Vincent is about maxed out where he is at and it won't be fast enough for what we have in the works.

My truck is TPI and is quicker than your bird. It easily ran 14.1 at Fontana pinging down the track with the busted transmission that wouldn't shift automatically and wouldn't go into reverse. Rusty had to help me push it into its parking spot.

'nuff said.

 

DAMN IT! I hope that didn’t leave a red mark…

 

Yada yada yada....wooda, cooda, shooda, gunna... it's all
Your credibility sucks. It's getting so you guys wouldn't know the truth if it smacked you in the face like a wet fish....so there

 

Credibility? We are telling you what we are gonna do. So when it comes down to it, don't tell us we were keeping secrets. I gave y'all planned weights, power, and resulting performance expectations. What else is there to know? It is up to us to minimally change the configurations to get the most out of everything.

 

No secrets here. The mods have always been in my signature. As Kevin stated I have also bougth some of my mods to the show and tell. It is the assembly of the parts and the execution that separates the winners from the also rans. Like Vincent said the timeslips will tell the tail and separate out the truth from the BS. This is going to be good.

 

A little bird told me there have been no Camaros or Firebirds at Sarkis' shop since we were there in January. You guys are even more full of crap than I thought.
Why do you bother? And you wonder why you get treated like crap on these boards...

 

Your truck is not quicker, James! Pay attention.
My 'bird ran 13.9, last time at Fontana. And I have witnesses. It's still the original heads, motor, valves, etc. and has over 200,000 miles.

Is your truck a stock TPI?

 

Of course there is always a DARK horse being quiet and reading all this BS. Waiting to clean everyones clock when he shows up unexpected................Right Jerry?

 

No question about Jerry clearning everyone's clock. That is a given. We are talking about the also rans. Heheheh. I just put the 400 inch small block in a different class than those running 350's and those with 383 in another class.

 

Yeah, how repeatable is that 13.9 without the 60 MPH tailwind? Have you consistently ran that 13.9 at Fontana or just that one day with the heavy wind? Sure I'm tacking a chance but I'm 100% sure the truck has your number all day long. And yes it is stock TPI...depending on what you call stock.

If I ran 14.1 on a 100 degree day with a transmission that didn't want to shift and the car pinging down the track, how do you think it will do with transmission that will shift and a non-pinging engine that will allow me to floor it down the whole track?

But enough of this chit-chat. I am gunning for the Big Boys and you are just a novelty I can beat down without much work or thought. Ya know, a little thing on the side I have toy with. I don't know much spanish, but maybe Sanchita is a word that would describe you.

I make a prediction , I put money on the table and back that boast- I am a man of my word. I have never seen a bigger group of sh*t talkers.
