Love how the Torque keeps climbing linearly - that makes for a very predictable and fast car.

yes, we are currently looking to source a used good engine to put a simple rod and piston upgrade in. We are doing this so minimally to see where the other limits are and we will upgrade as we go. Rod and Piston upgrade will be enough to get me to 1000whp. We are basically almost at 1000crank HP based on the dyno. So yes, 1k will come.I've seen mentions elsewhere that you're looking to throw rods/pistons in it and break into four digits. Still the plan?
now, that would be badass!!! Revving up to 8k like a k series lolis the b58 engine able to rev to 8k? or is it going to need head work?

that im not sure yet. 7200-7300rpm or so should be doable without head work or valvetrain upgrades. but we'll see.now, that would be badass!!! Revving up to 8k like a k series lol
my 1jz rev to 8k but she did have hks cams. i think thats what the b58 is missing high revving.now, that would be badass!!! Revving up to 8k like a k series lol
WOW! These numbers are SUPER impressive, and damn does that the torque look like it would knock you back and hold you back!!! For me though, the curve that the stock turbo produces with a good tune looks a little more fun for the street! Lots of lag here compared to the stock setup. (Expected)

as of now, no. And to add to this, we are still running the stock catback exhaust. going to be trying 7300rpm over the weekend. Since i have not been able to successfully pull the stock TCM file off the TCM yet, im still unsure where the trans will force itself to shift since i haven't been able to view the calibration. So they may be a point where i can raise the Engine rev limit beyond the trans limit and the car shifts before reaching the engine limit. But we will see.Not starting to feel any choking due to the headifold? I'm assuming you'd see MAF and IAT decrease/increase accordingly?
