thoughts on upgrading turbos....
Yeah, that's a great time, especially on pump. Any data on race gas yet? As you know, Madsex has a 5.59 on stock vtgs so I'm not convinced hotside extrude is worth the extra $$ based on numbers alone but everyone that has them seems to really like them.
I agree. All I'm saying is if the money back guarantee is real, then anyone can load up APR software and test it out regardless if you have a Proto tune or whatever as long as you still have stock vtgs. Obviously, with a Proto tune, you can just reflash it back to Proto very easily through the OBDII port. I would do it just to test it out but I don't have stock vtg's.
and that car still has stock rims/tires.BTW...ED shaved 0.2 went from RE11 to PS2 tires so it is damn huge factor
I wonder how much we could shave with lightweight rims/tires

I will look into calling them again and see if they do a free trial. May not be till the new year though as too much on leading up to xmas. But you are right about one thing....the tune is on all accounts faster than basically everything else 60 to 130 so it represents good bang for buck.
Likewise boggy. 60 to 130 is most important. Over 100 mph can lead to some serious problems with the law for many. Plus im sure APR isnt slow over that.
Yes....fair call skand. You are right that all tunes cause more stress than stock ecu settings so APR shouldnt be any more stressfull than others given the high HP tunes run similar or even more boost.
Again its hard to overlook the APR 60 to 130 time when other high end tunes that incur far greater spends struggle to come close. It does make for a compelling argument thats for sure.

I'm sure there is plenty of members ( other than Greece members ) has APR tune but im not sure why they didnt share their 60-130 yet
Noy sure if u read this before

shotcaller have you ever logged IAT's with your setup on a longer pull? pm me if you have
Never log the IAT but i know a friend with Proto GT kit log his IAT..let u know as soon as i get the log

Yep. It would sure help some if he could do a 60 to 130 and put an end to all the confusion. The greek guys sure have been left carrying a lot of weight on their shoulders for APR....and the silence on this subject is not a very good look for everyone with APR. Someone really needs to step up and fix this confusion once and for all. Its becoming like an X file.
Yeah, lightweight wheels make a difference. I believe Skand had on some very lightweight CF shoes when he established that record time. Madsex on the otherhand had stock wheels but nevertheless a very fast time for stock vtgs.
Not sure if you can extrapolate data, but Chris from USP hit 11.1 at 128 in the quarter. Let's say he did a 4 sec 0-60, can you then assume the 60-128 time was 7.1 and therefore the 60-130 something like 7.3-7.4?

I vaguely recall this being discussed before. Is it b/c of heat soak? You should be on max boost the whole way up b/c you're trying to get through the quarter mile as fast as possible so you would think you would be at max performance unless there was some bottleneck from heat soak or something similar.
