Fun stuff indeed....thanks. It might be the camera, but that looks like one narrow drag strip.

 

Nice vids SaintGT2 ,thanks.In the first vid you beat the 997 GT2 and in the second one you took a nap at the jump,but you were geting him.

What mods dyou have that beat the 997 GT2 ? Is the 997GT2 stock ?

 

What power you running in the 996 gt2 ?

 

Given he's running 130mph in the 1/4, I would say A LOT.

Well mine is not a gt2 i get 119mph trap speed and still pull a 12.1sec time ...

So im trying to work this all out technically speaking because as far as im aware mine should only be about 500bhp seeing as all i have in a 1bar map,exhaust, diverter valves and panel filter...

 

GT2 weights much less.

 

Time is going to be far less important for determining hp than the trap speed is. That trap speed means he's almost sure to have a turbo upgrade. My guess is 24/18g at least.

 

Great vid "Thanks"

What kind of camera shoots like that (speed and 2 views)?

 

As people have said, the ET is more a factor of traction. Given his hp and the fact that the GT2 is rear wheel drive, I'm sure it's not easy to get a great launch if he's on street tires.

To trap 130mph, I would assume he's at least 650hp at the crank.

BTW an 11.4 @130mph is a long way from 12.1 @ 119mph.

Thanks guys, I don't know what mods the Green machine has but I'm told a tune. It was using launch control so it jumped out of the basement. I am going to get that added next for sure.

I was running on 19's so 1st and second gear was terrible of the line, but 4th gear is where it's at.

Funny enough just a solid tune, an exhaust and some good fuel will net you these times.

Ran almost identical to my last GT2..

Running video vbox.

 

Steve, funny thing is that last time I was on the dyno I made 429rwhp@17psi on dyno dynamics.

 

I believe technically, you could run 130mph with only 600hp, but not 500.

I assume your GT2 came stock with K24's?
Is the engine basically the same as the X50, other than the tune?
What boost were you running?

Later, Steve

 

Yes correct K24's. Boost 1.2. Same as x50.
