Wait, so, 2 less cylinders and over a liter less displacement and the N54 still is right up there with the S65 when modded with larger turbos. The n54 is detuned comparatively speaking versus s65...

I know you were talking N/A here, but let us not forget the ultimate lag of an centri SC. Come on sticky, you would rather have a turbo on that monster of yours. The response is a fact of the...

Basically, they put up with knowing full well that they own you after the ring is there and the deed is done. I foresaw this coming and told my wife before married that I will always be a huge...

They all change promptly after putting a ring on the finger.

Contact John @ Ces, THey have installed some RB setups and would be a good shop to cert as they know their way around an N54/55 well now.

Although hot of a girl to like it that much, maybe spend the money to get out of that $#@!hole apartment first.

and I feel like a downer, but they change dude. My girl friend was just like that. ...

Anyone know what the difference in turbos will be or engine internals? If the engine is the same, and turbos are not much better flowing, why get this over a much lighter 1m? Hell, I'm considering...

The new STI's are weak sauce. I haven't found any that are that fast. For instance, I ran a new sedan STI with cat back and mild tune in my Daily 02 wrx wagon (Uppipe, full exhaust, tune, stock...

Wow, 3076 arguably spools better and capable of much more power... though, to be far it was running much higher boost. id like to see these at similar pressure levels to get a more level field...

Impressive top end, but a wiener down low. <200whp at 3600 rpms, 230ish @ 4000rpms. Not my cup of tea. Id rather have 550whp by then. Still impressive numbers.

Sticky man, what the hell. Coming off a little brash here.

BTW, why the no love for E36's? Too wide power bands capable at mid 700whp levels and too much torque? JJ. Personally, I'd have my...

Sticky, I tried to find info on your cars final power figures, are they on the site?

A friend sent this link to me. Not sure if it has been posted here yet.


Edit:


After searching, he is already here, so this just links his web site I suppose:

I'm just making a comment about the 'perceived' acceleration. Those are good gains though.

That acceleration video doesn't look any faster than my 02 wrx wagon daily driver.

I love this car. I'm kinda itching to build a 427 "mouse" c5 z06. N/A sounds enticing for awhile.

Uhh, apples to oranges Sticky. A Golf weighs well under 3000 lbs. A z06 is lighter than the E46 and has a super wide power band with much more torque.

BTW Guys, there is a lot more to trap speed than just a peak number. Such as area under the curve, gearing, weight, etc. While I agree that the output was still not what it was on the dyno, there...

Mike's comments on this from another forum:


The 697 run was at 18psi.

I went over the datalogs from the dyno vs the runs at the track. The car was pulling timing on the track and not on the...

Pretty sure in a mile race that thing would lift off the ground.

Ugg, Sticky, I'm surprised at you.

I think 'TT' is referring to Technique Tuning turbo kit. Not sure as I don't know the car, but typically on the E36 that's what 'TT' is referring to.

I think this is the greater-woman condition.

Yeah, Im in the same boat right now. Started my motor up with a knock.

...wife is-not amused.

if its not an easy fix meaning some contact that we missed, shes gone. :(

THis sounds like an issue with what local knowledge or local current practice is. I've seen that before when you get a community where everyone does the same thing, it works, but might not be best. ...
