Now cut it out and continue the relatively civil discussion we were having.

LOL this thread at it's worst is still the most civil discussion going on between tunes right now

Great race!

It's hard for a 6MT to beat AT or DCT. The problem is keeping boost up during the shift. The AT/DCT will shift and the computer will continue to keep the boost up. Unless you shift and stay on the throttle you will lose revs/boost and you are done.

BMS has a free 18ohm to 15ohm upgrade program. Well worth it if using an E85 mix!

I'm local with a 6at FBO Cobb running E85 and would be more than happy to run...

The DC bimmer crew having fun indeed.

You should see the basemap I send out lol. I send something that will allow me to see how the car is running before I start playing with things. It's a little more fun to drive than an OTS map but is severely lacking compared to where I put the cars after observing the logs. It's custom made for each person and their octane, mods, etc. but its nothing even close to ready for roll racing.

I like tuning / tuner discussions. I rarely get fired up or inflammatory so its usually rather civil from my end - I just always set myself up for disappointment because the responses I usually get are filled with parroting rhetoric.

the op and i ran again after he had a revised protune, each on the same amount of e85 mixture fuel, and he jumped out a car on me from the start. in the time that we were racing, i coudlnt pass him. in the vid, it seemed like i would have maybe started walking up top, but when i shut down, he was clearly still ahead.

Then i got a jb4 g5 board, and then a cobb ap, and ran that in combination to my jb4 g5. Car was much faster, because i didnt flatline timing between shifts anymore. havent ran the op since, but he has decided to sell the car, and move on to an e93 vert 335i last time i checked. still wants to be fast, but he also wants a to have a really nice looking vert! (wish you could have one without the extra weight penalty though.)

I would have started in a higher gear for that 40 MPH roll. The highest PSI for my stage 2+ Cobb OFS map is from 3300 RPM - 4300 RPM. I would have started around 3k and rode it out till about 6300RPM.

Jacblack · 01-20-2014, 04:46 AM

Do you guys all still meet up? Looking for e9x locals to meet up with.

Evdokimos · 01-20-2014, 08:26 AM

I thing that the jb4 car is faster. you cant loose a race by 2.5-3 cars and said that excuse. that guy has a quick shift a bump stop and a modified cdv. no shifting excuses please and race again from 60

Johnny Boost · 01-20-2014, 12:34 PM

Jb4 walked away pretty easily
