Getting ready for HIN 12/20/08

It has been awhile but the quest for big power continues. Please see the pics below of the big engine being put together.

We have ran out of time and willnot be able to go back to the track to test the car before HIN but should have dyno numbers for the big engine by then.

We had a fuel problem which was prevented us from boosting more than 18psi at the Nopi on 4/18 with the GT35R turbo. The fuel problem was solved, the car was retuned for higher boost and we went to the dyno recently.

Unfortunately, it was a dynomite dyno not Dynojet like we are used to. Please see the 494 whp @ 25 psi slip below. We were disappointed and did not even ask for the next run which was 501 whp @ 27 psi. We did the caluclations later and realized that on a dynojet, the 501 would have been about 525 whp

We went to the tracks on 12/5 to blow some stem since we had not been to Moroso since it was close for renovation. We realized in hind site now that we were unprepared.

As you can see in the video the rear was loose (we need to adjust the rear shock + install the bigger rear sway bar) and the runs were made with too much boost between 28-34 psi. The car was spining tires through almost every gear, too much boost.

Once we start testing the big engine, we are going to have to go low boost and slowly raise the psi till the tires start spining. We are going have to go with wider tires also.

We are hoping to have the car ready for HIN, pray for us.

Thank you all for the continue support!

Work in progress

The cars are almost ready for Hot Import Nights 12-20-08

By God's grace and mercy and staying till midnight the entire week, both cars are almost ready for Hot Import Nights (HIN) 12/20/08.

We just need to put the fuse in the sound system for Supermazda3 and install the oil pressure gauge. We need to put seats back in Superprotege along with a thorough cleaning.

We went to the dyno late last night but did not get the numbers we were looking for, the car needs alot more tunning and we ran out of time.

Superprotege is now running a GT35R turbo. Hoping for big dyno numbers and to run lower than 11.9 s in the 1/4 mile.

By God's grace and mercy, for the 2nd year in a row, a car built by TBK Performance and sponsored by Hiboost won 1st place for hottest midly modified mazda at Hot Import Nights (HIN). Supermazda3 won this award on Saturday 12/20/08.

We would like to thank everyone for there continued support and blessing.

Our upcoming plan is to try to compete @ HIN St Petersburg, FL on 4/25/08, maximize the big engine to gain over 600 whp and compete in NOPI Dracing Series if it gets ressurected.

We are also still planning to put the upgrade kit on local speed3 or 6 to validate the power possible with the Hiboost upgrade.
