His car is only 1.1seconds behind the Bugatti Veyron in 100-200km/hr!! That is TopGear material right there |
His car is what has helped/motivated me tune a lot of my friends car's to be beasts with minimal investment.... Following his guidelines I've gotten a couple cars into the 11's with under $1000 spent (not including tires).
Was thinking of throwing nitrous into my car to pull into the low 11's... but I just hate the squeaking/rattling that comes after you start gutting your interior and putting it back together.... it just never is the same so I can't come around to doing serious weight reduction
LUCKILY... I have a buddy with a FBO+METH plus stupidly weight reduced 135i willing to give nitrous a shot.... come spring time it should be ready to do some damage.
We tried it a couple weeks ago, but were finding it too difficult to comfortably maintain traction at WOT even in 3rd so it was hard to get solid runs in.

Power cutoff is there due to the nitrous and AT correct?
