can you give full details on your setup? your car is bananas.. the initial hit is really nice and just when you think it is going to run out of steam top end, it keeps on pulling.... wow.. probably the perfect street setup

I currently have the only HPF Stage 3 on the streets and I've only run 91 octane pump gas (as in this video). I believe you ran an HPF Stage 1 on race fuel (Tommy). Is that correct?

Chris.

The OP has a very bad habit of posting and then never posting again. I haven't seen the OP post in here since.

Everyone thinks they can do a better job. I am not a race car driver, just having fun with my car. Post some vids of you driving your car so I can make some dumb *** opinions.

I hear you Steve, everytime I race a TT and do well, someone claims the P-car owner couldn't drive, lol.

Wish he OP would post up on what his mods are.

You're right, he has a Stage 2. When I ran him, he wasn't running the meth, but was on 110 leaded race gas. We're trying to setup a run and will post vids. I'm expecting Tom's M3 to pull on me. His car's insane

I have the basic K24/18G setup:
K24/18G turbos (my car's an X50, so modified the stock turbos)
Protomotive ECU tune
Agency Power exhaust with 100-cell cats
5-bar FPR
Greddy Profec-B Boost Controller
EVOMS Billet DV
Denso Double Platinum Plugs

That's it...everything else, including the air box, is stock.

We'll see. I heard you did some more mods to your car. We're going to send him our first prototype methanol tank when it comes in so he can have a "little" bit more power (around 30rwhp more). We've been waiting on our custom methanol tanks for a few months now and they should all hopefully be arriving soon. Good luck with your race.

Take care,
Chris.

LOL you heard I did more mods? And who did you hear this from? Considering my car's been sitting in my garage the entire winter, I wonder what "mods" you're referring to. I got an OEM replacement battery, I bet that's it Seriously, no, the car is the same as it was last time I ran Tom. The only difference this time is that I'll be on 100 octane race gas.

FYI, I did in page 3. Check again before you post and don't just throw out BS. Why does it matter to you anyway?
