I just wanted to share my car with everyone and the great work that JPC Racing has done for me in getting my car back to me. Back in 2014 I spun a bearing on my way home from work and from the moment I spoke with Aaron until the day I pulled out of the parking lot I was amazed and thankful for the amount of time that they spent with me in getting the build together and all of the questions I have asked along the way. The customer service has been second to none IMO even helping me out when the piston manufacture let a bad piston slip by quality control, they said don't worry about it, we are going to cover the cost of everything and get back on the road as quickly as possible and work everything out from there. I can't count how many times I have seen something go wrong and the owner of the car is stuck having to foot the bill or is sitting there waiting months on end for some sort of action to happen. That certainly wasn't the case here, I was called immediately and was told there might be something wrong with a piston, but not to worry about we are going to pull them out order new ones and get you up and running while we deal with the manufacturer. You have nothing to worry about, just let us deal with it. I can count on half a hand how many times I have seen that happen.

Anyway, onto the car! Here it is during the tuning process for E85:


The car ended up making 564 on 93, 579 on E85, & 594 on FTW. The only time I'm not rounding those numbers up is on my taxes haha.

Rich over at RGR is one of the best modular engine builders in the nation and the work that he did on this car coming up with everything to make it all work perfectly is unreal. All of this is on the stock 11:1 compression so I can only imagine what these numbers would be if we followed suit with the other All Motor N/A builds and bumped compression to 12:1+. Kevin MacDonald did his magic with the tuning and it is no wonder he tunes some of the fastest coyote's in the country! This thing just moves the **** out and from 4500 RPM on up the car just punches you in the face and pulls all the way up to 8200 like a god **** freight train, it just doesn't want to stop. With the cams and the monoblade throttle body on there I was expecting the driveability to greatly suffer, but it did great IMO. Very little bucking or throttle surge and this was with the traffic heading into American Muscle and also driving it around the parking lot using only my big toe to press on the gas. I'm so impressed with the job that Kevin did with the tune in all honesty. The car is just an absolute monster and I can't imagine what it will be like on the road course. I'm looking forward to my first outing to relearn how the car will behave. I'm hoping to show a few Corvette's my taillights though

Everyone there knows what they are doing at the shop and did an amazing job! When Aaron walked me around the shop it was just a hodgepodge of 7 second cars with a bunch of 8 second cars and then god knows how many 9 second cars were sitting in the shop getting work done to them with a few SRT8 Grand Cherokee, a Viper, some Lightnings basically anything you could want to make go fast I have seen in their shop at one point or the other. I was just blown away at the shop.

Here is a dyno sheet and idle clip to end this off. I couldn't say enough positive things about JPC they are just a great group of amazing people in MD.

 

Sean!!!

So happy for you buddy. After all you've been through, you deserve the final end results like this. If I was in the area of JPC, I'd go with them too - but alas, I'm stuck here in the darn Midwest

That being said, congrats again - great numbers, great patience by you, and what a great car.

 

Simply amazing Sean! Congrats bro!
So good to hear stories like this. Sounds like JPC is a stand up place, which I knew they were from another person I know that has about 1K at the wheels with a twin turbo. OH,....and her GT is GHIG as well! lol Plus, they are very knowledgeable too.
So, did RGR do the engine build for you? Would you recommended them? (I'm "assuming" yes. lol )
Again, congrats on the build Sean. Sounds awesome and is beastly. Enjoy.

 

Tony - you know what I was thinking....... I think doing something like what Sean did is what YOU need to do. That way, you can STOP selling her, and also cut through the "boredom" of what you're going through with the car. It will be a change of pace, significant for sure, but it will be good for you.

 

Absolutely killer. I'll be happy with 500whp NA, you've set the bar too high!

 

He doesn't drive it now more hp ain't gonna change that equation.

 

haha just playing, but do me a favor, maybe a quick cliff notes list of engine mods?

 

+1 would love to know how they rebuilt it.

 

HA HAAAAAAAAAA

 

Oh man, he has a whole thread on it. Essentially rebuilt from ground up, forged everything, sleeved, etc. he went all out.

 

My gosh, beast mode!! Gotta be fun to drive!

 

Love that sound, looking forward to seeing how you go at the track.

 

I know this is an old thread, but i'm curious how they got the car to make 600whp without increasing compression? Did they port the heads? Could you post the mods list and changes made to achieve that number? The most I've seen on a motor with stock compression is approx. 510whp

 

Here you go...

Lots of stuff about this build on this thread:

It is a great read full of valuable info.

 

600 hp at what cost? Would be nice to know parts, machining and labor actual cost.
