nice runs! probably the only 335i i've seen with a slip that runs 12.4... most other ones are running ~12.6 and the 135's running 12.2-12.4 on COBB.

Well maybe the east coast just have faster 335s...lol

Now that's funny!!! The East Coast boys must have shipped their rides to SoCal for tuning?

Sure there are other places in Africa, haven't been there a whole lot.
But outside Pretoria you have a stretch that was at least 4 lanes, if not 5. Maybe that's where you go?
Be sure to check out your fuel pump before heading out on a nightly race, as you might find yourselfs in a bit of a pickle, if stranded!

Good luck

I'm looking to hit 11s to this weekend also. I did 12.0 on my 19s. Gonna put on some radials and finally get into 11s!

the first page of the jb4 sticky says what boost levels map 7 runs.

No need to get all crazy on me. All you had to do was explain what you just said. I only said that because I run faster times on the track using map 7 with 50/50 - 40/60 93/e85 blends than I do on map 5. I am on your side man!!

My best 60' on Hankook Ventus v12's is 1.9high, but I have some 275/30/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sports scheduled to come tomorrow. I will see how they hook on the track and let you know. They are not drag radials, but I need some security with these flash floods in Vegas. There may be some hope..

You have a quick car Jo. Make sure you get video of that 11 second run!

I apologize for my previous comment b/c tonight's WOT session proved your point. The OEM clutch with 66k original miles wasn't catching worth a damn. Looks like I will be upgrading to a stronger clutch shortly
Fully_Bolted, what clutch are you using right now?

Nice... looking forward to that run between you & Stucks!

No worries man, i was excited when my clutch started slipping, especially since i was tuning the car myself.

34k on mine, '07 build. Went with HPF stage 1 with oem flywheel.

When it was first installed it chattered like crazy, hard to engage in first and reverse. Broke it in and hit the track. After a few weeks and a trip to the dragstrip it engages nice and smooth. Pedal pressure is about 25% more than stock, not bad at all. IF i short shift, it barks the tires through 4th

Definitely not a bad choice of wheels. Do you still have your stockers?

No I sold them. I am looking to get a couple of Kosei 17's for track nights.

To keep things short, I lost the first run because I shifted too slow and my protune wasn't finished. My car is 6MT and "Stucks" car is 6AT. Now that my protune is completed, we set out for a rematch.

Car Mods & Details for Run #2:

Laid Black 335i: 2007 BMW 335i (6MT): Cobb Protune (18 psi), FBO, No Meth, Stock OEM Exhaust, running a 60/40 mix of 93/E85.

VS.

Stucks (Camera Car): 2008 BMW 335i (6AT): JB4 (Map 5 - 16.5psi), FBO, No Meth, Stock OEM Exhaust, running a 75/25 mix of 93/E85.



Summary: We did a 40 roll again letting off around 135. I was able to pull a car length at the start and by the time we let off, I was half a car ahead.

Just for kicks.... here's a video of my 60-130 time. I estimate it is low to mid 9's.

Very nice runs! I really enjoyed the videos!
I would like to see another re-match with JB4 running MAP7.
What exactly does protune do to COBB tuning?
