I ordered this Bryant crank a long time ago, in anticipation of this build.

My old setup pulled hard but was cutting out at high RPM. While trying to analyze crank and cam signals, a piston got hurt. I tore the motor down and discovered some reluctor teeth bent and it wasn't installed properly. H-Squared wasn't the shop that did that work. Since I have the Elite 2500 from Haltech, I'm able to change to a 58X reluctor. I bought the fixture and installed the wheel myself.

Glad you stopped your meth lab long enough to get something important in the oven.

Sweet build layout though
I've (of course) got a RKT56 Performance built ZR1 trans and a RPM built Quaife differential with an ECS brace on it. I eventually plan to put some spray nozzles in it to hit the cluster gears that need it.

This will be a beast for sure -

Question:

Nitrous? Why? to spool the turbos faster? (gotta help me out )-

How much power are you shooting for?

Thanks,Matt
With this combination, I'm expecting to be able to be at full boost by 3500RPM, however, in certain situations there would be an advantage to keeping the car in a higher gear and spraying my way into boost. The Nitrous Express Maximizer 4 controller allows me to control the solenoids by RPM, by time or even by boost, so I'm able to choose where it starts by RPM/TPS and where it ends by boost. I can pulse the solenoids to come on and taper off easy to make the transitions smooth too. I'm really pleased with the flexibility that it offers.

This combo should be capable of making as much power as I could ever want, so I'll have to make a decision as to how much is reasonable so I don't destroy everything behind the motor. I've seen builds with only one 6870 making over 1000whp. Add my two-stage Nitrous Express system and you get an idea of why I have a decision to make. I'll have to see how the traction is too. The Haltech has traction control and boost by gear that can be overlaid with boost by speed so I can progressively adjust the boost throughout each gear. The Tilton quad disc is capable of holding just under 2000ft lbs of torque, so that's not much of a concern.

Cracker indeed! No A4 is gonna hold this for long, if at all, otherwise, I would strongly consider it.

Thanks!

I'm anxious to get started laying it all out. I absolutely LOVE the solenoids! They're going to look right at home under my hood. The controller is the most flexible I've seen and I'm happy that I chose it. It will suit my needs perfectly.

Been watching for your build thread, as I knew there would be a good one lol! We talked about those cranks a long time ago, now that you have it, you know what I mean when there isn't a comparison to anything else. Its beautiful so much so you almost hate to put it in the motor lol! Keep the pictures coming buddy. Looking good!
