Just do the rb's, LSD, flex fuel kit

Black Sheep · 11-15-2012, 07:28 PM

An a suspension set up to handle that

Markyd83 · 11-15-2012, 07:35 PM

Well I saw some of the latest twin tuning and its pretty crazy. And flex fuel is making mad power. I guess I'm curious to see how rbs run. I'm getting a little annoyed by the autotune feature for the jb4. I want it to just run strong always and not always adapting.

99.99999999% corn fed

mithiral67 · 11-15-2012, 07:40 PM

I know the piggies are running better than ever. But still see random reports of mis-fires, codes, and other stuff that sent me right back to cobb. Its harder to run meth with them. But at the end of the day, you need to log to make sure anything other that ots 2+ is working correctly, and cobb is to easy to do that with.

Personally, I think nothing is better than a protune by a proper tuner and anything else is shorting you on stuff like safety, power potential, and cust to your exact car and fuel.

Surprised at the rb's by the way. Didn't know they made that much power. Thought it was just and 30-50 hp/trq

mithiral67 · 11-15-2012, 07:46 PM

So, from scratch, its safe to say its $20k single turbo install with proper drive train and susp work?

Markyd83 · 11-15-2012, 07:48 PM

They were up until recently. They r getting close to single power. I bet rbs will max at 600whp but curious on what Vargas stage 3s will be like.

I'd say so. M3 suspension conversion runs around 4k installed.

CubanJJ09 · 11-15-2012, 07:56 PM

You need meth to run single?

mithiral67 · 11-15-2012, 08:02 PM

Yea, a quad nozzle set up.

Markyd83 · 11-15-2012, 08:12 PM

Not at all times but yes the quad is what they set up for it. I wanna see some more e85 testing with the single. Sounds like back to the research board for me on what to do. Argh

CubanJJ09 · 11-15-2012, 08:20 PM

Meth is what 2k installed?

Mr. Nice · 11-15-2012, 08:21 PM

sell car, buy 1M, install single turbo

mithiral67 · 11-15-2012, 08:26 PM

Single turbo + m3 susp is cheaper than an m1

Nah 1k and could install myself. But then again I don't feel comfortable tapping lines in my intercooler so...

gary88 · 11-15-2012, 08:49 PM

Watching fifth gear GTR vs 911 turbo s, Porsche beat it by almost a second around a track.

Markyd83 · 11-15-2012, 10:42 PM

16 hour day done. Yay. 30 hours in 2 days. I hate this week.
