I think he's was on C16 at app. the same boost level (still waiting for him to call me to find out more). But of course, his car being a 997...he makes more power than I do at the same boost since his stock heads and cams flow more air than 996's do.

Thats Awesome!!!

Ha ha...Tom (being the classy car guy that he is) would probably say "congratulations!" and leave it at that. The other guys, well...I think I have a good idea.

"done" that's funny! Maybe with the 996, but just starting with the GT-R

congrats to both Ed and Scott...that is definitely moving
Mike-i dont think that 2 shifts will yield a faster time on the stock turbos, but its worth a try

maybe..but anyways it seems that 60-130 runs are a science more than just a drag race.. i like racing other cars much better lol.. and my turbos are k24s but they arent really stock

.. and im on pump @ 1.3 bar .. first tries ever for 60-130 s .. ill figure it out .. practice practice lol
