HEY!!!

Wow you remembered how to find me. Yeah I remember you. I even have a short video clip of us practicing in the RedBull booth before we went to try for best time.

I will send you a private message. To find it go to the top of the page, and you will see "private messages" under your name.

And welcome to Ferrarichat.

I took a drive down to Church's today to check the place out. The deposit has been paid, and the date confirmed.

It's pretty easy to get to it. Take the 110fwy toward San Pedro, exit C St., turn right on Figueroa St., left on W. Harry Bridges Blvd, and left on Quay Ave.

Shawn, the owner, is a very nice guy. He has a 500hp supercharged S2000, and while I was there another S2000 rolled hope that was make 600hp+. A Blown Caddi SVT was rolled off a flat bed, that was there for a tune, and was expected to make 700-750hp.

Really nice group of guys working there, and I'm looking forward to having them dyno my car.

Won't we be embarrassed by our lowly HP numbers compared to those tuner cars? I think I'll wear a dark cap and some sunglasses...

Naw.
They did a dyno run on an old Civic while I was there. It put down 135hp at the hubs. Not bad for a 1.5L single cam.

And yes it's trailer friendly. But I thought you were bringing the 550?

Looks like everyone's getting dyno'd tomorrow, but here's mine from a few months ago. It's a 99 F1 with about 51,000 miles on it at that point. Mods are Tubi headers, Tubi exhaust, Tubi test pipes, Kreissieg Y-pipe, and Gruppe M intake. Made about 311hp, but the photo was cut off right above the torque number so I'm not sure what that was.
