Alright. Took the go pro out this afternoon. Video is 20 min long. From startup to shutdown. I will have to edit out smaller clips obviously. Here is what i have.

1. Normal take off from 0-60 leaving a stop sign.
2. "Brisk" take off from 0-80 leaving a stop sign.
3. "Quick" take off, slowly adding more pedal till i hit 30mph then put it to the floor to 110mph. (EGTS were only at 1500 at 90mph)
4. Then a WOT from 70mph to 100mph.

Give me a while to edit and everything. See if i can get it all in one video with captions.
Brief warning: #3 and 4 are smokey.
Temp was 90*F.

Hope this works.

Im no computer genius so this took a while. Had to "buy" some editing software so i could edit the gopro video, then i had absolutely no idea how to work it. So the videos will just be clips. I think this one took me 4 hours to make LOL

Somehow the quality went to 240... dont know why as the original is 1080. I will see if i can get this fixed and upload a better one. More to follow. This is just a normal takeoff 0-60mph on Xtreme X.

Pretty clean.

Just FYI theres some free software I downloaded. It will rotate the video etc and you can clip etc. think it was called 5square or 5squared

Ok, sorry for the wait but i finally got the video software figured out(enough to use).

Watch in HD

here is a semi agressive takeoff 0-80mph

Here is a rolling WOT run. (notice its not WOT until ~13sec mark and still has tire spin)

And finally a 70-100mph WOT run

Thanks! Im very happy with it. And i drove with the windows down for the first time the other night and it was LOUD. I might have to put a muffler on it just for the outside noise. Inside the cab its not too bad, but it does have a slight drone around 82mph which is cruising speed here on I-10. My old setup had the same drone around 80mph.

I love watching the smoke increase, increase, increase, increase as the pw probably stays around the same, but the rpm increases....then on a shift the rpm drops and smoke again tails, then starts building again.

A video angle like that would be nice for tuning. The only way I've ever seen that before was watching someone else going down the strip and seeing the smoke building before each shift, letting you know you could use a bit larger nozzle up top.

Or maybe the 66 is running out of air up top?

Regardless, that thing looked to be running very well, and cleaning up nicely. I just thought visually seeing the injection window getting long in the tooth with that camera angle was cool.

On Edit: It's really obvious in the middle video above.
