the beast has risen, long live the beast:clap:

After posting this earlier I went out and loaded in a tune I built with EFILIVE for the engine, let's just say that an extra 50-60HP makes a WORLD of difference:drool:. It still runs with zero smoke, but will flat scoot right along for a big ole beast.

Very Impressive Ferm!

Man, between you and Skools, there's nothing that can't be done with cars or boats. Next, you guys will be building planes...

No planes for me, that is my uncles and grandfathers deal. My grandfather got into aviation in 62 and got out in 84. Heres a pic I found of my uncles plane on the web. It is a CESSNA 195 that was origanally modified from the 270HP engine to a 450HP engine for arial photography. He got this one because when my grandfather was in aviation he used to run a skydiving outfit and used one just like this for jumpers.

Heres a shot of my grandfathers plane that has been restored.

Ferm, you ever make it over to Kermit Weeks place in Lakeland, there are some great planes in there

Nope, haven't made it to FANATSY OF FLIGHT yet. My grandfather has been several times though and knows many of the planes he has in there.

I made a couple of videos today of it and figured I would post over here. I'm playing with some hotter tunes, but still need to learn how to reduce the defueling some as it is slow to bring the power on.

i wanted to see burn outs :beer:

Yea what he said!! anyone can hit the gas and drive away!!

I'm having issues right now with the TCM commanding the ECM to reduce fuel on me for torque management. Until I can get an unlocked TCM from the tuner I'm sort of stuck with it like this. Plus 3.42 gears makes it a bit lazy off the line.
