I would love to put in the Carpenter Stage 1 kit. 210HP at thewheel is nothing to sneeze at. Anyone have $4,400.00 they would like to donate to my Stage 1 project?
lots of things can sway the biggest HP number, The rev limit that is set for a run for instance .My HP is not one of the big boys but in this run i shut her down at 6800 rpm ,with head work and a better valve shim set up i would not worry about letting her loose. as you can see from the chart it was only going up.

Been there done that, on the street
Darryl ther aint no pissing match Hombre might be shooting for 700 + HP but that is different then having a bike running that produces that much. Oh and if he does great
The thread was titled greatest HP any Rocket not what your hoping to have.
I do not even know if mine made the target HP of 420 we were shooting for I lowered my boost down some so as not to exced the 100,000 rpm limit of the supercharger and because I was raising the compression to 11.8:1. This is something Hombre said would not work with pump gas. I think about that everytime I stick the premium pump gas in mine at a gas station. Then start laughing at how far off the mark he was. I am Glad I listened to Carpenter Racing over Hombrei-sh bull****.
Oh and if I did not make the target hp thats great. One of the reasons being this ***** eats up tires. The other is I am not sure if I could handle it as power I have is just brutal anyway. I will be lucky to get much past 4000 miles on the shinko. Next will see it the exedraMax holds up better.
As for Kotex well he post so much like hombre, I figure it is Hombre with another alias like he has done before stirring up poo poo and posting more garbage. (remember 8secr3)
If he is not then he is really working the brown nose angle hard
Me?
I ain't getting into no pissing match over it.
Never met either one of you guys personally an in the flesh,
but I'd sure like to some day.
Both of you have went your own way,
and that itself deserves respect from us mere mortals.
Both of you have done your own thing
and either achieved your intended goals
or come close to it.
A worthy endeavor in either case.
Warp built the ultimate streetable R3.
Hombre built the ultimate (at the time) track racing R3.
Hard to argue with, in either case.
You don't have to have balls. This is the internet. I posted a year or so ago about me making up my own dyno sheet (using Excel) and posting it somewhere (don't recall the actual forum). I posted that my Thunderbird was putting 150 to the rear wheel. That got the masses cackling. Lol
