Nah, but by the time they actually start my car they will be ahead of HPF, haha (no hard feelings chris just hurry up!). They are finishing my tune and diffuser then looking into the work and time frame. So probably mid february they will start? Alex already said he is going to target more of a "track" audience with around 500whp with a crazy good curve and no lag. 500whp on their dyno is about 560whp or so on a dynojet. I will hit you up when they have a "price" or what not. I might just have them upgrade my turbos or something if it is too expensive and let you do the turbo upgrade, haha. I still need suspension. Hopefully!!!

+1... would love to see us N54's give Stock ZO6's and GTR's a run for their money.

I am not sure you understand how difficult that is and what other factors come into play to do that... a GTR has perfect traction all around and one of the fastest DCTs in the business. A Z06 is geared insanely for dragging and has aerodynamic and weight factors that work to its advantage... That's assuming we are solely talking about dragging and not even getting into track performance... besides who has a stock GTR or Z06? The GTR next year will have 550 hp stock and the Z06 is due for a revamp... good luck.

A 135i with that much power isn't going to have any problems with a GTR. They're fast but not insane. Infact, a FBO+Meth 135i would probably hurt a stock GTR owners feelings.

It's not just about power.
GT-Rs have an enormous traction advantage over any 2wd car, plus they have loads of very sophisticated electronic nannies that allows them to be driven very quickly, even by relatively unskilled drivers. Their longer wheelbase also offers advantages. Just sayin... Neil |

Q4P, you need to participate in more street races. Z06's aren't unbeatable. Anyway, it's annoying to be close minded about anything. Horsepower, weight and traction. Any car can be built for those things, to a degree. Some routes are easier than others, for sure.
And about the AWD thing, not everyone races from a traction limited dig, and the fastest drag cars in the world are RWD. You just have to build it right.... Anyway, I hope this thing actually gets on the dyno soon. |
