I'm going to have to unsubscribe from this thread, I can't handle pictures like that when I struggle to get my barely running, untuned 2F in the FJ40 past 50mph

What are your RPM's at that? I'm assuming 4.11's and 35's?

If that pig had wings it would fly.
I gotta get mine tuned up. Thanks for the inspiration.

I just remembered you have an H55F, if my maths are correct:
Speed: 85mph
Diff: 4.11
Tire: 33
Trans: .845
= 3006 RPMs.
Which means by my calculations, and @FJ60Cam saying 4600 rpm, you can go 130mph.
Funny. I could easily pop 100+ in my light little FJ40 with this motor....,I bet it weighs 1/2 what the Warthog weighs.

I'm not convinced that the terminal velocity of a free falling pig would reach 130 mph.

At some point it has much more to do with wind resistance than weight. My guess is that point is well below 100 mph for either vehicle.
Edit: This comment had to do with driving and not with falling. I'm pretty sure either would free fall over 100 mph.

Well, where’s the rocket scientist?

Isn’t this fun stepping all over @wngrog ’s bragging?!
I see it as a challenge. Carry on.
While the Warthog’s 120 horses are much more powerful than than the average 120 horses, we’re still asking a lot from them to move this heavy brick past 85-90 
On a good downhill with a tailwind, though

What about adding an Eaton compressor?
Lots of intake air temperature increase but that is what an intercooler is for. Turbo would be lovely too.Who’s ready to do one?
Does the Sniper work on a blow through boost setup?
Compressor is better for off-road, power at lower revs.
My cruiser is far away from an engine build but seriously thinking about one when the time comes.
Not this one. But the next model up does!
