Gary welcome again to the board! I hope another run can be arranged. Preferably against a 400 something hp turbo busa but I also would love to see someone with a 275rwhp "Ghetto kit" turbo busa from this boards tuner, The motorhead, Run ya. Like one of the "hecklers" at the viper boards stated that
not all 800rwhp vipers run the same, the same thing follows in the turbo busa world as well. To put it bluntly so the viper guys may understand, A Mr. Turbo kit compared to the likes of the bikes built by the tuner here and what he uses, along with bikes from velocity racing and Superkaos (Phantombusa's 430hp being one example) is kinda like comparing a
Hennessey Build against a
Heffner build. There IS no comparison in performance and quality. Like hennessy, Mr. Turbo has a few good show ponies out there that have done impressive and got attention but customer satisfaction to the street product is a entirely different Horror story.
But bottom line is you guys ran and a win is a win. I just hope that cool heads will prevail here and something cool can be arranged for filming in the near future. Seeing that your interested (and seem well knowledged) in a turbo busa, I can imagine you might eventually have a T-busa that could surpass this one:
This is RoboTi's daily street driver. It's velocity kit along with the motor being toughned up allows it to produce over 500hp at the back wheel on 20ib's of Boost without a problem. The below pic is GPS verified of what he did on just 12ib's of boost (probably 320-350hp) with power and gear left.
Besides this Readings of around 240mph are usually the norm for those with 400-450rwhp T-Busa's (along with getting there extremely quick). Some customers have showed such results here and on other boards. This should make ya happy although i hope this isn't your first bike.
Thing is I have to ask if you topped your car out or have a good idea of it's top end ability? We've seen and heard of 1200hp to 1500hp vipers and supra's before but have never seen anyone showing these cars doing any speeds comparable to that of what a stage 2 Turbo busa did on a highway in a mile or less. It's always runs up to 180mph or 200mph. Just curious if you can enlighten us of anything comparable to the above. Thanks again and welcome.
