Mike Ickes 408whp runs and stuff I bought recently. (56k no)
Monday, January 11, 2010 4:34 PM
First off. I went and bought 408whpcavy's evo hood. Gave me an Rksport underdrive pulley for free







My snow tires came in today. Yokohama W.drives. Went on the stock LSS rims. They are a dream so far.





Finally. Since noone has seen it run.... we did between 115 and 120mph on the runs.

Note: Taken on my Droid. The shakes are from this thing shifting. It hits you like a ton of bricks.

was this a 1/4 throttle pull or 1/2 throttle pull or what? i personally agree that it doesnt look like 408hp at all! Just my honest opnion though!

Absolutley a good pick up on the hood! Cant wait to see it on the car!

Well for 1 the car is making 408whp. 2 I have the dyno sheet and here is the number to the tuning shop so you can call and ask them. 717 218 8227 Sound innovations. And 3 the it was 1/2 throttle 2nd 1/2 throttle in third untill the top of third and the wide open in alittle bit of 4th. All the car was doing spinning because the road was cold. And there is a big differents in watching a car on video than actually riding in the car... Its funny that not many know me but when you guys seen a video like this of skunks car you said oh that is so fast what a beast... And he is 80hp more than me.. So thanks guys for pretty much calling my a liar..

Wow, put down the crackpipe and calm down. All they said is that it didnt LOOK like a 408whp pull. Nowhere did anyone say your car doesnt have that much power. You REALLY need to chill.

I could tell he wasnt on it at first, dont blame him for not trying to kill himself. I wouldnt be launching that car like that on street tires in winter time, he could also have winter tires on which would be even worse.

Love the hood! Should look great on your car

Way to jump the gun and be an overly defensive cry baby. Because of your reaction to their simple statements, NOW I am going to be skeptical of your numbers. Just because you got sooooo defense about it. Btw, what is done to it? Sorry if I just haven't kept up on the org news, but I don't even know who you are. Planning to get to a race track in the spring?

Every thing is in my profile.. I would love to go to the track this year. I went to the track with the guys at the shop put just not with the car. I went to check it out and watched what they do and how they do it.. Ok so I jumped the gun. I apologize for my actions so lets move on. I have to get my septic system fixed first that just went 2 weeks ago. But I have to wait on the town ship right now. But anyway I want to get a set of slicks and a helmet and hopefully get to the track this year.. I have to up date my pictures sense I have my stock hood back on..

I have updated pictures. Ill put them up Mike. And I'm using the hood as a summer hood, so once it warms up I will put pictures up. I don't need two feet of snow in my engine bay aha.

Stop crying like a little girl and show your dyno sheet. Until the real proof is displayed your going to continue to be called a liar.

Why wouldnt you guys think this could be a 400whp car? Just look at the mod list and underhood pics, its not rocket science..

Never said it wasn't a 400hp car I'm just saying instead of getting all upset that people call your bluff just show the proof. As far as the tough guy comment I'm not even going to sink to your level and get into a pissing match that's just ignorant. You want people to believe you like I said post the proof and you did enough said.
