Picked up the kit today - most of the rest of the goodies are here also.

 

Eninge was started beginning of the week . Will be 5.5 l 8.7:1 cr - positive displayment supercharger, probably about 14 psi boost with water and methanol injection.

 

It will have the equivolent of Accessport with mulitple maps for different fuels and boosts. Expecting 500-600 RHP with full torque by 2000 rpms. In a 2500 lb car this will be fast.

 

Will post pictures every couple of weeks.

 

Goal is to make SCCA tech inspection April 8 th- will run SPO in SCCA and SU in NASA. Need to meet all the same safety requirements as a GT-1 car.

Hi

 

Only took 18 months but the race car is finished - been to LRP and the Glen.

 

It is a take no prisoners car - wish I could have finished the Subaru but that was not to be. Ended up building it with another engineer - same old story a bunch of shops that did not deliver -as I have foundout painfully if it is really different you have to do it yourself. Will be running NASA NE every chance I get - LRP a couple of more times this year.

 

We are still tuning the engine - 80s ECU are a unique experiance .

 

This was the dyno at only 10 psi of boost - obviously a supercharger.

When fully tuned and at 15 psi should be over 600 rwhp.

 

Gave up being street legal in Mass unless SEMA bill passes.

Wow I just re-read the obit, and his untimely passing was 4 days after his last post with the dyno plot....

 

:( I really was hoping to meet him on the track and get a few more laughs from him. It really makes you think sometimes how quickly things can change

JDM'd All to hell

:cool:

Thanks Jimmy @ Hkc-Speed.com!

RIP Coxx & Thanks
