wow. would you take a partial trade for this car? i've got an e30 m3 and an e46. either one would be offered with cash on top. lmk

 

Yes, and seems a bit odd to me but I'm not very familiar with these cars.

525whp @ 1.3bar and picks up 155whp (to 680) with .1 more bar of boost and race fuel. (and maybe lots of additional timing?)

Also may have allready been answered but are the stock bumper/etc included if one wanted to return the exterior body to stock appearing? Thanks.

 

Sorry to hear the seller ended up flaking. Car is def. a steal and I wouldn't sell for a penny less.

Hope you got to keep deposit...i def would keep it

 

Hey, I'm new to the boards and can't PM you because I don't have enough posts. I'm looking to buy a car in the next few months and I'm really interested in your car. Can you send me your e-mail address?

 

^^^^

 

I'd buy it at $55K if I didn't have my Speed Yellow TT. In fact I'd even trade some parts if the seller was willing to do so for some good money. It might be easier to sell but then again I'd rather buy it the way it sits.

If the new buyer wants the stock OEM parts just repainted Speed Yellow, I'll trade for these aftermarket parts. Good luck with the sale.

 

thanks for the nice comments. i would hate to part it out. it drives so well as it is. i am hoping to find it a new home as is.

 

Parting it out would be STUPID. Trim the price and I can get a friend to buy it.

 

Vividracing- Would you mind commenting on the boost/power #'s?


680awhp on 109octane at 1.4bar of boost
525awhp on 91octane 1.3bar of boost



Just seems odd to me that it would pick up 155awhp going from 1.3 to 1.4 bar and race fuel. (unless the fuel enabled you to add a good amount of timing?)

Just want to verify those #'s are correct. Thanks.

 

Vividracing- PM sent

 

Guys... I DONT OWN THIS CAR. It sold in July 2008. If you want information on the car, read the build stories at www.vividracing.com/forums/project-996tt.

The last dyno of the car is here -

 

Well I guess that's where the confusion lies. You built the car and in your first post you state-

680awhp on 109octane at 1.4bar of boost
525awhp on 91octane 1.3bar of boost

But the latest dyno is 568whp/622wtq. (so not sure where the 680awhp # came from but apparently it is not accurate).

Thanks.

 

i bought the car from dan july 08. i have never had the car dyno'd since i have had the car. but dan has been very helpful to me since i have had the car with the usual after service he is famous for. the car is still for sale.

 

So the power numbers still have not been clarified.
Dan (vividracing) posted these numbers himself in the post

680awhp on 109octane at 1.4bar of boost
525awhp on 91octane 1.3bar of boost


Are they just complete bull**** numbers and the actual number is 568AWHP as seen from the dynograph above or ... ???

 

568 x 1.2 (drivetrain loss) is 680HP crank.
