so first mod up is window tint! which got done on May 13th. its amazing how much a little change does for a car!



i went with 20% all around and a 5% strip on the windshield!

COMPETITION CLUTCH STAGE 4 SIX PUCK CLUTCH KIT!







WELL I HAVE SOME RESULT FOR EVERYONE!

I HAVE GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS! SO HERE WE GO!



BAD:

My clutch did get installed!

My k24 crank pulley (6.37) was installed but the belt that i was supposed to use was to short. (long story dont feel like explaining it! i dont understand one person said it fits and one says it dont. all in all it didnt get installed.)

Now my car has a exhaust leak to top everything!



the clutch slipped EVERY SINGLE PULL! if any of you have ever dynoed on a dynapack you know how they work. as my tuner was doing my part throttle it slipped bad. so we both new that it was going to last long on the dyno.

which it only got 7 1/2 pulls or so before it slipped something terrible. so me and tuner decided to called it quits there because i still had to make the 2 hour trip back home.



GOOD:

my first pull which was to 5000rpm the car made 46lbs of tq more than my all motor setup made.

my first complete pull made 299whp and 199lbs of tq! that is amazing!

the car made on the second full pull was 312whp 202wtq and a couple pulls later it made 320whp 205wtq!



VENOMCOOLER:



now i know a lot of you are wondering how this thing helped me! let me tell everyone this once, IT WORKS WONDERS FOR OUR SUPERCHARGED CARS! MY BLOWER NEVER EVER GOT HOT TO TOUCH AT ALL ON THE DYNO! THE SNOUT WAS VERY COOL! I DID NOT HEAT SOAK NOT ONE TIME. EVERY PULL WAS A INCREASE IN POWER! I WILL TELL YOU AND ONCE I GOT OFF THE DYNO AND THE CAR REALLY GOT TO BREAK AND GET FRESHER AND MUCH COOLER AIR, THE CAR FELT LIKE IT PICK UP ANOTHER 10-20HP! DEREK AND JON BOTH WERE SUPER SHOCKED AT HOW COOL THE BLOWER WAS TO THE TOUCH!



WHATS TO COME WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS:

my Competition Stage 4 clutch is being installed by Matt Fentress

my k24 (6.37) crank pulley will be installed with the correct belt for a much increase in boost and power!

fix my terrible exahust leak, probably lost 5-6ponies right there! ugh!

lastly make another trip up to innovative motorworks for a retune!



overall im very pleased with the car and how it preform with shot to hell stock clutch. 320whp is crazy power! let me tell you its amazing how hard my car pulls right now. i know my car will mid 12s like it is now on my drag radials!



so please bare with me as i try to get all these little things fixed and get back to the dyno to make the power i should have had made today. and just for everyones info, my car is very very very capable of over 350whp! :vtec:



video time! you will see that my clutch is slipping in every pull. so worst than others.



















im looking to be back at the dyno for my true numbers within 3 weeks! thanks everyone for all your support! :thumbsup:

well everyone i took my car to mr. jon aka BIG RED :bighug: for a full detail! and man o man o man. i thought i was taking pretty good care of my car. BUT AFTER HIS FIRST LOOK OVER OF THE CAR :eek:mg: that clearly wasnt the case.



HERE IS WHAT HE STARTED WITH! mine you now i havent washed in about 2 1/2 weeks or so.































AFTER JON MADE ME :facepalm: AND THEN :readtherules: MY CAR NOW LOOKS LIKE THIS! :clapping: :wheee: :cheerleader: :clapping: :wheee: :cheerleader:

























HE MADE WILLY'S DAD SRT8 LOOK INSANE! (THAT WAS A LOT OF CAR inside joke)



SO EVERYONE IF YOU THINK YOUR CAR IS IN GREAT SHAPE 10/10 ITS NOT. :giggle: TRUST ME ITS NOT. JUST HIT JON AKA JMP09FG2 AKA BIG RED UP MAKE YOUR APPOINTMENT NOW:readtherules: ECHM IS COMING VERY SOON! YOUR WHIPS NEEDS TO LOOK LIKE THE PHOTOS ABOVE. HE IS YOUR GUY! THANKS AGAIN! :woowoo:



well i finally got what EVERYONE HAS BEEN TELLING ME TO GET! MY FRONT LIP! :cheerleader::cheerleader:











i love the new look of the car! its way more aggressive now! i was at the track today with the family NO I DID NOT RUN THE CAR!!!!!!! BUT, soooooo many ppl ask me a million question about the car. ppl were taking pics of it..... it actually got to the point were my dad step in and said enough was a enough all i could do is laugh :rotfl: but all n all i love the car even more now!



well just to let everyone know how my experience went today. it wasnt overall bad at all. it was hot as ballz outside. inside the dyno area it was 98 degrees and over 70% humidity. that was not a good idea for tuning but it is what it is. so we got the new skeletor crank pulley on the car and the belt and it shredded on the fourth pull! :facepalm: so derek made some calls and we got another a belt in about 40mins. so we get back to imw and install that belt and one pull that dualast belt was stretched to ****. so after that we called it there cause i still had to make home. so after we inspected the belt derek said nothing over 3.5k-4k on the trip home. so it was a long trip home. i will have a new gator back belt tomorrow or gates hopefully. i guess i just dont have good luck with the boosted setup. it was like :deadhorse: i swear. i made 343whp 225tq. my IAT'S were starting 110 and going to a peak of 180 and going right back 100-110 degrees after the pull. so the aftercooler and venom cooler are doing there job despite the 100 degree weather and high as **** humidity. derek assured me that the car had much more in it. its just the factors that came into play today belts, heat, heat, heat, heat, heat and humidity, humidity, humidity, and the the ride home. so i have made 101whp 60wtq over my all motor setup. :cheerleader::cheerleader:



here are the videos from today:wheee:



















i have another trick up my sleeve. which is coming at the end of july! it WILL ADD ANOTHER 20-30 WHP and about 10-12WTQ. no its not meth, E85 or NOS! :giggle:



Well everyone I have great news my car is on NYCE1s.com I can't believe it! It made me feel so much better about my car!

The motor is a stock block k20z3! It has skunk2 valve spring and titanium retainers everything else is stock! All my major motor work was done by my best buddy Matt Fentress! He is a master Honda tech and put a lot time, sweet, blood into my car. He has done the following:

RRC MANIFOLD

J35 Throttle Body

Removed my skunk2 cams and put my stock ones back in

My front pro-kit spring

Installed my COMPLETE Jackson Racing Supeecharger

Installed my Mercracing stage 2

Did my stage 4 clutch install

And numerous other things!






My car would not be able to make the power it does right now Without Matt being there to help through this build! I want to give him a HUGE

Thanks you! He has done work on a lot of the Mid Altantic 8thgens. He has built

Dwayne - oldskoolda5

Danny- Bulliedogs

Willy- FBFG

just to name a few and there many many more.



If you need anything built, fixed, repaired, just let me know and I or bulliedog will get you in touch with him! Thanks again Matt!



Mercracing (Jose) ------> Aftercooler, inlet, advice!



Now this guy Jose is one of the fastest aftercooler installer Ive ever seen! :giggle: He personally came to me ( Matt house) and did the aftercooler install.

His work is COMPLETELY AWESOME! his welds are top notch and his kits are just pure easy to install and make power with. His inlet is second to none out there IMO! I'm so glad I had the opportunity to work with him and make the great power we did! I would not be at 365 whp without his great craftsmanship and outstanding aftercooler kit. Thank you Jose mercracing for that.



Tuning/Custom "IceBox" --------> Innovative MotorWorks Carlisle PA







Now I will be the first to say that there Customer service is ABOVE ANY SHOP YOU CAN THINK OF PERIOD! I don't care what you think, they cannot be beat! Derek and his team there is AMAZING! There shop is always clean the environment is always "home feeling" which I believe is the best feeling in the world when your car is being worked on. Derek has been there to answer EVERY ONE OF MY QUESTION! My car has been there 4 times for tuning! And each time was awesome experience! Derek had a idea and decided to talk to me about making some more so as usually I wanted to hear it. So we talked about the "IceBox"! After him assurming it me it was going to be awesome and make more power I went for it. Boy o boy did he not lie. It made amazing number! He tuned it the max! Iat's were starting as low 70* and raising to a max of 130*, 130* was reached after 3 back to back pull to 8600 rpm coolant temp was only 77* SO YES The "IceBox" works! Mine you know it was about 85* inside the Dyno room and humid! He spent a lot of time in the iat's compensation table. Now the way the icebox works is as the computer detects a drastic drop in iat temp it will add more timing and fuel and BAM........ THE POWER IS THERE. it's works flawlessly! I can't believe how well the car drives and how smooth it is now. I recommend IMW, for anyone that is SERIOUS about getting Dyno tune. Trust me Derek and crew is just FREAKING AWEASOME! if you need to get in contact with them --------> 7172188227 and get your appointment made NOW!



Danny, joe, Dwayne, willy, nik, Jon, Qaise, Danny F, Danny B, Josh, many more!



These ppl have been helping me from the start! Red Baron would not be where it is now with out all there help, advice, guidance, knowledge and more! I would like to say thanks to you guys for everything you have done for me! Danny specially cause I wouldn't even be supercharged without you! Thanks man again! Joe for riding along on my IMW trips and other things that I have been through. Willy for his purpul parts, Jon for the crazy Insane detail job! Danny f for his knowledge and actually pushing his car to the limits to encourage me to do the same. Danny b for his awesome advice and gauge pod install. Nik and Qaise for all the fun in Richmond during ECHM and the install of my Retros! Josh for his help with exhaust install! Thanks again everybody! Thanks so much!
