DevJ · 05-26-2009, 07:18 PM

He should invest in a better camera lol

okay. not exactly what i expected. thought you were gonna be smoking a tt 997 not just a easy pull away. you caught that truck too. yeah.

DevJ · 05-26-2009, 07:42 PM

I was at least expecting a 335i

JMD0977 · 05-26-2009, 08:00 PM

What TT?

zanyviper · 05-26-2009, 08:00 PM

that's what the HD button is for in utube, switches it to 720

zanyviper · 05-26-2009, 08:05 PM

he has a Nissan twin turbo, that thing with mods has about as much HP as the M3...I can tell you one thing, when he' was going like 125-130....., I had it floored in 6th and I couldn't even catch up to him!.....guess naturally aspired is all good at low-end but what about top speed?....do twin turbos have the power in the high end like that?....I thought with turbos it was all low end torque......anyone know?.....and please don't tell me it's the driver......

1MOREMOD · 05-26-2009, 08:08 PM

for starters 125-130 im in 4th on the track maybe 5th.

zanyviper · 05-26-2009, 08:20 PM

well then I need to reset my rpm range on my perf wheel....I was watching that instead of the tach....I probably have it set to shift at 5 grand or something.....I'm gonna check it....I should just set it at 8....for times like these??

1MOREMOD · 05-26-2009, 08:24 PM

yeah must be a dct i take it? shifts should be in the upper 7k range or low 8's if your trying to get the most out of it.

zanyviper · 05-26-2009, 08:28 PM

question, is it just me or are shifts /clutch easier when you shift at 7/8K as opposed to much earlier?....it seems like the clutch goes in a lot easier etc...

1MOREMOD · 05-26-2009, 08:30 PM

thats messed up lol ^^

For starters when a car is already traveling at those speeds and you try and catch up, unless you have a Buggati its going to be hard to catch up.

It's the opposite. Turbos drop off unlike high rev NA cars that build HP til red line. Why are you flooring it in 6th to catch up with someone?
