Buschur Evo makes 903whp? Uh-oh AMS

[Chicago_DSM]

I was just jumping aroud the Honda-tech forums looking for funny things Honda guys says about dsm's, and I stumbled upon a thread with a video of the Buchur Racing Black evo race car making 903awhp....

I am suprised that I just heard about this, b/c when AMS hit this magic number I saw tons of threads pop up about it....Buschur runs an extremely different setup, and there car is their own personal race car, but still, very impressive...

It was only so long until AMS's number was cracked or matched....

Vid from streetfire:
Race Gas, All turbo Pulls, no n2o

That is one nice car.

When dyno numbers start to get that outrageous I have to go with who runs the quicker ET. You can run higher timing and a leaner a/f ratio for a quick dyno pull. When the car is on the pavement things do change a little. It is possible to get a dyno tune close, but I have never seen where no changes had to be made once the car was driven/raced.
IMO the way they are tuning the cars for the dyno runs, they would lose the motor after the 1000ft mark in top gear at the track with the exact same tune.

i wonder if a HP cold war will start between shops

If they just recently hit 903, their introuble because I think AMS is about to dyno with more numbers again.

I wonder if they use SAE corrected #s.

Good point, I am pretty sure AMS's corrected number is 930awhp, and I thought it made much more torque than Buschur's....

I don't think that Buschur's Evo was made for dyno/bragging power only, since that happens to be one of their drag car's...

AMS's record setting low-mid 9 second shop car made horsepower in the 800-850whp range, so it's interesting to see an all-turbo 900awhp shop car run AMS's 840whp shop car down the 1320....hmmmm

AMS's 900whp evo isn't their own car, and It seemed to me it was being built only to see big numbers on the dyno, but who knows...It's the same evo that used to terrorize the streets in FL when it ran a GT35r AMS kit + n2o...

AMS uses a GT42 and a 2.3stroker...

I am not sure of the Buschur setup, but it's some massive turbo and a high-revving 2.0L

AMS's shop car definitly still doesnt have 840whp, and its a 2.0

My bad, I kinda mixed some things up....

1. It had 808whp, still a lot...and a big difference from Buschur's

2. The 900whp AMS evo uses a stroker...The race car uses a 2.0l w/ the same GT42 ams kit

Actually, i was thinking that AMS wouldn't have just not touched their setup over the winter. I'm pretty sure that their shop car has some stuff to come soon. AMS isn't the kind of guys to sit around and twidle their thumbs you know haha.

Well, there probably preparing for the better weather aka race season...

Not much a drag radial only car is going to do in 6" of snow...

Anyway, if I wanted I could drive 20minutes up to their shop and find out for ya

I have their number on speed dial for my Talon mishaps...Maybe I could give them a buzz and find out what's new on the shop car

[Spyder1gdsm]

I wouldn't count them out just yet...

[emocore_racer]

Ever noticed how much they baby the AMS evo off the line?

And that is very impressive. Cant wait to see what they do to a IX

[TSi4G63T]

I read somwhere that the buschur HP numbers were uncorrected.

*i read it on our local forums*

Two things:

1. Good to see Tym and Dave working together on something again, they are masters of their trade.....

2. Good to see they have an EVO that might give AMS a run for their money on the 1320, if not beat them. But who knows, it's all talk until they run.
