If he stole a bunch of peoples money in the BMW community, had been known to lie in the past and Bimmerboost is now supporting his claim by giving him a headline post.. seems kind of irresponsible to me. For all you guys know the car was built using all these peoples stolen money. I wouldn't give the guy the time of day, but that is just me.

A new record is a new record. Yep, done by a crook who we don't like but still have to report it. I also made sure to point out what he is exactly. I can't just pretend like it never happened.

x2 its a new record. and we all know its by a thief.

Some form of traction control maybe?

Possibly, we need more details. If it is a standalone many support such features.

I dont think he has traction control enabled, but obviously by the secrecy of the owner, we dont know the facts.

Another thing i wanted to mention is the dyno sheets above. He used 3rd gear, which is odd and he also used 8f mode on the dynodynamics. That mode is meant for FI cars with 8 cylinders not 6. I dont know enough about dynodynamics but its annoying how you can manipulate numbers, more so then a dynojet.

Also he definitely changes his turbo's or the numbers don't make sense. The 2 dyno's posted have the worst powerband ive ever seen! They make peak horsepower at over 7500rpm then die off. Before 7000rpm hes not making much hp at all. That is why he connected nitrous and thats why the vbox looks like he used nitrous. Also notice in his 2 videos, the 1st video the car doesnt seem to be making as much power as the 2nd. I know traction will be the excuse but i dont think thats the answer here. The car sounds much different in the 2nd video.

i was looking at the graph too. why a third gear pull thats not a real like 1to1 scale of the engine power the gearing is different. idk about the dynodynamics and the changes between the modes..

the second video did look/ sound crazier like went all out. the first video was soo subtle didnt even seem like a twini turbo car to be having aroung 1000+bhp

Absolutely, I'm starting to hate that dyno.

Agreed, you can make it read super low or super high its ridiculous. Also for turbo cars you can even make it spool much differently, again causing more/less power. Just too many conditions that change the power numbers imo.

Exactly why I prefer dynojets for looking at graphs. If people want to tune on a DD it's fine but you can't do much with the numbers. I don't even like the way their graphs look compared to how dynojet does it.

Ya for tuning its cool, although I still think you can put too much load on it and tune it, it wont do good on the street.

Well of course, but that is why you have a good tuner. The argument can be made it is more difficult to simulate various load on a dynojet so a DD tune should be in theory be better for the street.

A good tuner can manipulate it as well, mustang is the way to go for tuning from what ive heard. Dynojets are good as well, never heard of any issues because of load. The rollers are 2500lbs or so.

The DD puts too much load and i think it simulates beyond street conditions.

Eh... I don't know. The mustang would be better than the dynojet but I think the DD is probably the top of the game in this area. That is just what tuners have told me but many have their own dyno preference.

Isn't it adjustable?

Ya ive heard the same story, some tuners love dynojets...

Yes its adjustable but Im not sure how you can accurately establish the rates and loads. I dont know enough about it to correctly talk about it... All i know is there are MANY different adjustments.

all i can say about it is, when youre going for a vbox record and your car has a race gas map with methanol you use it, if your car has nitrous you spray it. you dont go for a record by leaving power "on the table". now it doesnt take away from the record or make the car any less impressive, but it would be nice to be told the truth about how the power was made.

As I have said before, the owner can not be trusted based on his past history.

So, go by the logical assumption that nitrous was used. If nitrous was not used, the burden of proof is on him to show us. Since he has not, I am going to continue to believe nitrous was used until it is proven otherwise.

Having this joke Mert on list makes me
not even take that serious anymore. I just don't see how you can have a valid time
with no info on the car. Just doesn't seem right to me. We should have all info so we can all compare setups. Personally I don't Trust this mert guy at all. He would go out of his way to make a bogus vbox time.

I've been around long enough to know about this JOKER. Same guy who filled his trunk with cement to try and get traction.

This is all true, but he ran the time. What can you do?
