What's he using for fuel?Methanol?I thought Charlie Dyma's fj20 was good with 260hp.Even his sr20 only got 275 and that was using factory race cams etc from the super tourers.Only some of the super tourer teams have cracked the 300 mark so doing this with webers is some achievment.Who owns the car?Is it charlies old motor minus the injection setup?
