Default tryin to throw the BS flag...

I simply dont believe him. Beau is running 22psi and pulling the mid 11's...

let's do some math, just for fun: stock fuel pressure ~ 42psi fmu ~10psi per 1psi boost. so @ 10psi boost the fuel pressure is raised 100psi, total fuel psi= 140psi, that's about 350% of the original, fuel lines are going to start getting tired if you do that on a regular basis, plus what stock pump is capable of sustaining that pressure?

he now has a video of "his car" and i paused it on his launch, and there was 12sec of the vid left. a high 11's could be possible. but a "stock motor" with 10psi
i dont believe.


EDIT
after i re-read it, he says its a 1/8 mile. so here hes running 12 sec in a 1/8 mile @ 9psi

I'm going to be the black sheep and say I believe him. I've dealt with him before and he is a SUPER cool guy. He sent me a TPS for free just to see if it would help my problems. I can't seee him telling stories like this.

I don't think Beau has had a good run without any problems yet. He has always had something go wrong, which prevented him from running what the car is capable of.

I say it's true.
