The Life of the Black Knight

readings were lower than expected... but compared to others, it did pretty well

 

its definately a beast :bigthumb:

 

Not bad for a CONSERVATIVE street tune on 93 only.

 

i'm plenty happy with it... it should have made more on SOG's dyno since everyones numbers were lower than expected

 

I wasn't putting your car down in any way at all....hope you didn't get that impression. Just SS told me the car has PLENTY left in it but that it was kept safe.

 

that thought never even crossed my mind

 

I only need bout 250 more hp to keep up!!:rofl:

 

:bowdown:

 

Schweeeet! :bigthumb:

 

That would be bad ass, ATL represent :ddirty:

 

once again the black knights are back on top!!!!!

 

oh heck no, WRB FTW!! You knights are are going down


oh looking good Milo, but you have to let that 65lb/min shine, so I say throw some methanol on there and turn up the boost :naughty:

 

i agree... on 93 octane its runing at the very bottom of its efficiency chart... scott has been pushing me to get methanol and bob (master tech at SOG) has been pushing for race gas

i think i'll go high octane sometime in the fall... right now i need to start saving money for a clutch which i'm sure will fry once i make more power... besides, the power is plenty for me right now... i rarely even floor the gas anymore unless im pointed perfectly straight

 

What! It's AWD man sling that bad boy! I say go meth for daily and C16 for the sickness!

 

damn, the AVC-R is awesome... my car just made 1.4 bar (~20.87 psi) in first gear !!!!!!!

also, i have been driving with a heavy foot all week... obviously since i just got all this power... filled up gas today and got just over 11 miles to the gallon

 

Thats insane man!

 

:rofl:

 

Haha I'm scared if I went with AVC-R my tranny would explode! Well it's held to the 19 psi I hit at the tracks....:keke:

 

on a side note, AVC-R measures kg/cm^2 not bar,
1.4 bar = 20.305psi
1.4 kg/cm^2= 19.912psi

I know it's only .4psi of difference but it would be nice to precise

 

my mistake... still pretty high in first gear

 

thanks to mike (ScoobyBlkWRX) i have a clean girll.... he put in a lot of work... here are some pics






compared to the stock grill


i'll post a picture in better lighting soon

 

looks good man

 

Hot!

 

Very nice!!!

 

it looks even better in person :bigthumb:

 

thanks guys

 

I was very pleased with the way it came out, and it wasn't even that hard to do. I wish I did a DIY for y'all..

 

Very nice i just read thru the whole thread!
thats one mean subie!

 

thanks man... i have been meaning to take some better pics after the FMIC and new grill

 

Milo mind telling me where you got the grill? Since I went with a RS hood I want to hide my FMIC for stealthyness. Also I've hit like 5 birds in the last month and although the Perrin FMIC is tough and didn't bend any I don't want to take chances. Debris is bad for FMIC mmmmkay.

 

the grill is made by APC and one piece costs about $35 at a local automotiive store... i don't remember if i bought it at autozone or pepboys... i bought 2 pieces: 1 for the upper part and 1 to cover the IC core... the one covering the IC barely fit since its about 7.5 - 8 inches wide... might wanna check dimensions before you buy it...

i have heard that you can get them much cheaper on ebay with larger dimensions... but i needed mine soon so i had to buy them locally

 

Cool......Home depot has them as well in big sheets. Thanks. Did you paint your grill? Is it flaking any at all from rock chips?

 

looks awesome dude

 

yes we painted it black... actually we applied primer, then black paint and then clear coat... multiple layers of each... its still chipping so i used a little touch up paint yesterday

we didn't paint it in the best conditions though... it was cold and raining

 

I don't want to be a copy cat... But I wanna do the same, that looks badass! Is Alex still working with the machine shop to get some made?

 

super clean

 

some pics of the grill and engine bay... will take more when the car is clean

 

you had quite a gathering around your machine on saturday, and with good reason... it's sick

you need the sti lip now

 

thanks bro

i wish i could get one... but i'll be so pissed off if i broke it... the car is pretty low already

 

NASTY! Milo are those Tein hood structs or another brand?

 

tein

 

Think they would hold up an RS hood?

 

no idea... the RS hood is pretty heavy isnt it?

 

headlights have been re-'verked' by 10th St JDM and i cant get over how good the car looks now... gotta wash the car soon, hopefully tomorrow

​

 

So simple, but yet... So badass! :bowdown:

 

thanks

 

Yay..... finally!!!

Looks great.

 

Looking awesome Milo. I have to make the trip to Atlanta so you can give me a ride.

 

Milo, did the catch can get fixed?
