Ben, the run that was 215 was making much less tq since it was not the E85 tune and no, it did not do a 4.5 60-130. It was around mid to high fives at the mile. Tom did do a 4.8 60-130 at the mile with his 218 run. I never really did get a chance to fully utilize that setup since the ring and pinion grenaded on the second run. Although I loathe predictions, I would think it a safe assumption that this E85 setup would eclipse the previous performance numbers, assuming the engine failed to grenade as some would predict...or hope?
BTW, when are you getting the 1500 WHP TTG, those numbers should go over quite nicely here...

 

blah blah bah, lets stop arguing and get to what is really important, lets hear this beast!!

 

I was going with my memory from some time back. I think we drank more budweiser that weekend than we drove miles. Great weekend.

As for a TTG, that's a little ways away for me. I'm hoping in a year or two. Going to stick with p-cars for the time being. Trying to upgrade now ......

 

Do we have any more feedback from EVO as to how their power graph at 4000rpm reads 505hp which equates by formula (which is not subject to insane hype) to 898NM at 4000rpm ?

I am very disappointed and disturbed that a company which can and does push the boundaries for their 1 mile drag racers can produce the drivel below....

A GT2RS in the configuration they present cannot make more than about 660PS DIN - I have data logs of acceleration of one tuned to this level..... does EVO want to show their acceleration logs ? say 100-250kph ? (flat surface please no 6 bling slopes )

 

^^^Just drop it.

I'm glad EVOMS took it upon themselves to address the biggest problem with the GT2RS from the factory: not enough power!

 

LOL, I wish I had that kind of problem

 

after all that, can anyone upload a video of a GT2RS fitted with that Akrapovic exhaust? Please?

 

yeah but isnt he kinda right about the HP - TQ discrepancy on the graph? they are related by formula...

 

I know, I'm sad but things like this bug me

The power curve "works" over 4500rpm but below this is doesn't. IMO this is a chassis dyno attempting to measure too much turbo torque by calculating a value based on a 6 second light load dyno run and failing spectacularly...

This engine does NOT have 737ftlbs....

 

I wonder how bad this car would heat soak under florida weather at Sebring. I believe only data would be able to tell.
