Nice orange Mirage PowershiftMatt. I have a thunder grey 5 speed Mirage 2014. I like the Eclipse next to your car as well.

"Project Blasphemy" - great nickname! :emmersed:

If I recall correctly, didn't you say you have raced your Mirage on a track? What tracks and how were your results? I thought you mentioned a drag racing track...

Edit - found it:

Has anyone out there pushed the 392 with extreme turbo boost, say >15psi? Do we really know at what point the engine grenades from stress?

I'm amazed a Hayabusa can produce 500hp with massive boost and from what I gather, a stock bottom end. Perhaps our 3 cylinder wonder is capable of 2-300hp with enough boost.

I’ll be pushing the engine; 8 psi to start. It’ll have head studs and a stock bottom end. It’s an open deck motor on cast rods so I have no idea what the limit is, but I’ll find it lol.

I haven’t had this particular car on the track yet, but those are the tracks I frequent. My times were using draggy :)
