Looks like a pretty nice DD you've got there Mr. Pampena. Is that 17-18psi? What type of boost controller, manual or electronic? You're keeping it very simple which is what a lot of people need to do. You still have the beast right?

[IronmanTT]

Can 15g's with the same set up do about the same?? :D

[Ray Pampena]

yea still got the beast... its funny how after having over 1000whp that 450 is still fun... but it sure is fun! haha its a manual boost control. the 422 is 19psi and the 454 is about 25psi. i have no back to back comparos but 15Gs seem close

[Atrosity]

God that is amazing!

[mcshooter]

ray what numbers would you expect with td04 phantoms, front mounted intercooler,hot wired fuel pump,550 injectors, tuned with arc2 ???

[onebadmollafolla]

Talk about a sleeper! Not to mention the substantial gains you could get with a few more minor bolt-ons.

[BjornRune]

That is very impressive indeed. I like your approach, minimalistic yet seriously effective!
Did you weld in your bellhousing brace yet? You still offer those right?

[Chris@Rvengeperformance]

what are you running for plugs and gap? No DLI?

[OhioSpyderman]

Ray, if you didn't have a 5 o'clock shadow, would you CONSTANTLY be pulled over for being underage (and more importantly, under HEIGHT?)?

Bob. :)

[blindmist]

Hmmm. I bet I will barely reach my 500AWHP goal with my 13t's and 550cc with EMU. It is going to take some damn good tuning, I hope to get solid runs @ 23-25psi on my 8.5:1.

[a2j]

AA still works!

so do I have a chance of hitting 500awhp/awtq with 13Ts, dsm smics, and enough of e85?

[CoreyB]

Damn Ray thats a very simple setup, which makes it impressive to me.

ive done those in the past. if the turbos last, they make low 400s on pump and about 500 with race gas. the problem is, most didnt last

Preformance shop, hello :awesome:


Ray, you must come back to TN in about 3-4 weeks. I should have my car ready to tune and hopefully Justin will be ready by then also.

Good to see your having fun with the new ride. It's funny how you told me you came to your senses and wasn’t going to buy it then next week went and picked it up. :lo5l: I guess your sanity didn’t last long.

[GTOJOE]

im only 18 Bob!

So I assume it's a family business? or all yours?

[CoreyB]

LOL, was joke. Its all his AFAIK

[Ray Pampena]

haha i usually never have a serious face.. probably because it was late in the day and i was high on fumes.

i actually make way less money doing this compared to working at toyota. the freedom and my love for cars makes it worth it but its hard sometimes.

this car was for sale on 3si for a while and no one bought it! i paid $5000 and fixed all the shit wrong with it :)

[terrets]

Haha nice new sig blindmist......Ya I was asking if he owned/started it himself more or less. :p Damn good job Ray.

[Ray Pampena]
