Re: fastest svx?
That would be the Shadow Machine. Used to belong to Tomsvx, aka Young Tom, and now belongs to Letitsnow(Rob). It's had some improvements since it ran a 12.99 in the 1/4 mile at around 106 mph a few years back already if I remember correctly. That was on about 9psi supercharged, stock internals with the Hydra standalone EMS. Since then unless Rob has changed anything, it has a custom 1off intake, 12 psi with meth injection. I don't believe Rob's gotten it to the strip but is using it for AutoX. I'm sure he can elaborate much more.
That is the fastest confirmed SVX. |

Re: fastest svx?
I'm not certain, but I think it was on the 12psi pulley when it ripped that 12.998.
I put the 9psi pulley on in an effort to help the engine last longer. Otherwise, beyond a pair of catch cans, a little tuning, and reinstallation of the rear window wiper (yeh, I DD it), it's pretty much as-was. As promised, it will be driven... appropriately. I took my ol' man for a ride last year. Seems it wasn't what he expected. I'll bring it out to ESTA sometime this season and see what I can do.

Also, SVXfiles, aka Old or Original Tom (OT for short) has a centrifugal supercharger on his claret utilizing ECUtune software as well. Not sure on the boost levels. There are a few others with the ECUtune stage 3 supercharger kits (what the shadow machine originated from) but none that have been pushed, used or proven thus far. Also others have started turbo setups but progress has been slow for various reasons. Rob, Couldn't remember if that was when Tom was really starting to push it or not. I do remember that he didn't have the greatest tune on it when he ran it though. Have you messed with the tuning of the hydra much? And I'd DD the car as well, but I'd probably have way too heavy of a right foot and would be spending all my money on gas. Also, sorry for not getting the bracket yet. I'm going to be stripping down an SVX at "itsjusteric"s after Reading so i can mail that bracket from there probably. Just hard to get everything done when I'm only home about half the time or less it seems. send me a PM with your cell # and I can get ahold of you when I get the bracket off. |

Re: fastest svx?
