word in the streets is that vargas surpassed the 600/600 WR on stock frames

Vargas talks a lot of shit, but holds or has held damn near every N54 record out there. Doing 6xx whp on stock frames is awesome, no two ways about it, liking his delivery is irrelevant. He has been clear about what turbos he's running, bringing up the ASR stuff from past testing seems... well, childish and bad business.

I'm going to state it again; he made 627 whp. 627. Stock frames, meaning, fairly inexpensive bolt on considering. I fully understand this is new and will likely have some more testing done -comes with the territory. Doing anything but high-fives seems alllll sorts of jealous and petty to me, at best.

Agree a trillion percent that from a platform perspective it is magnificent either way. Kudos to the fact that it was done certainly and to whoever did the development on said hardware.

The problem is from the development/testing perspective and what is touted to being sold to the public (vs. what is actually being produced at some later date), do not seem to be in alignment which is not something new for VTT.

The great news is that in less than an hour it will all be squashed, and if incorrect I have no problem swallowing my pride and offering VTT a apology and commend them greatly on the achievement and innovation.

Ok cool, see him there at 11:30, the owner will not be there as I pushed the dyno back thinking I had to deal with this, he can inspect the car and come back for the dyno if he wants, or come to the shop 22018 Meekland Ave Hayward CA 94541 and see the car on the lift then come to the dyno, is 4 minutes away, either one is fine. Let me know.

What time can the dyno operator be there? Would be nice to ensure the car being inspected is the one making the power...

Tony@vargasturbotech · 09-05-2014, 01:07 PM

Welp, I lied, owner just texted me. 11:30 dyno time is all he has. See him there.

Rob tell him to bring a camera! For two reasons:

1.) Video Evidence
2.) Video Evidence in case he gets jumped

I will not be working around his schedule, he can feel free to come inspect and we will lay down a 600+WHP run for him, then he will be asked to leave so we can dyno tune at our own pace.

A good whp pass and some pics of the equipped turbos' interface is all that is necessary! He can be in and out quick.

Thanks again!

SgtGoldy · 09-05-2014, 01:22 PM

lol if this guy goes I feel bad for him. Way to show up and feel completely hated and unwanted.

This guy was just told by his boss to go take pictures. He shows up, everyone wants to fucking kick him in the balls... He tries to take pictures but can feel the burn of everyones stare in the back of his head.

haha poor guy.

He will be treated with respect and allowed to do what he came for, I have no hate for him. I have no hate for Rob, but lies finally caught up to him.

Subaru335i · 09-05-2014, 01:26 PM

need to see the results of this. I have a feeling this will not be resolved today...but I hope I am wrong.

Rob@RBTurbo · 09-05-2014, 01:26 PM

FYI from another Forum. Looks like we are on VTT Stage 2+ Batch 2s already… bye bye TD03 interface now. The purchasing customers can thank me later.

EDIT: Was asked about turbine wheels so assuming that is the response.

That would be the compressor housing sir, you know as well as I, bigger than a 15T will not fit the inlet, inlet is machined off, new inlet welded on, remachined to accept compressor inducer. Man Rob you are digging yourself a grave of looking stupif right now man. There is not a single thing changed on the turbine side. But hey you know everything, that's why you hold all the records..

Ok. I am with you.

PS: the N54 records that matter are still owned by us (many 1/4 mile trap and ET).

both Rob & Vargas have the exact same # of posts on this forum .... just found that to be a funny observation.
