Oh damn what's up yeah haven't seen you or your brother in a while even though I just moved down the street. Good to hear you car is coming back together. Hopefully everything is resolved.
Used to spot you every morning at Laguna Coffee. Did you buy that place? :D I was going there every day for a while. Funny you say that. A friend and I actually thought of buying it but the owner wants too much. He is a bit optimistic. It's a great place to sit and have your coffee right on PCH. Like a car show everyday. We get so many gorgeous car go by. Especially on the weekends. Quick question. What boost are you running out of the hole? What psi\bar are you launching at, leaving the hole(launch control)? What are you running in each gear. Curious to know if you're running some crazy boost like wrc\rally cross cars. Thank you. Still ironing out a few small details on the car. Maybe I'll come out to one of these events soon.. I'm not running you though‼️ I've seen the videos. Lol |

I'm not running you though‼️ I've seen the videos. Lol Factory launch control is right around 5K rpms where I'm at 30psi of boost from the stock turbos. After 5K rpm boost tapers quickly down to maybe 16-17psi at redline. I don't have gear-dependent boost. It's the same for every gear. The ability of my car to get traction at 30psi of boost on the launch is why it smokes everyone out of the hole. Hope your car is done soon and yeah get it out to one of the runway events - you will have a blast. We can do a roll race - it could be close! |
you mean 3psi boost off the line i hope lol

haha nope 30psi! Obviously it takes a lot to get it to hook. Tires, suspension tweaks and some footwork on my part. It's why I always out-launch other modded PDK Turbos. |

I'd love to hear how any Porsche can build 30psi off the line when 3000hp drag cars are leaving the lights at 5-10psi.

Long, you got a broken gauge mate. Log the car, you'll see 2-5psi off the line in the logs.

You are right in that the gauge reads a little high (2-3psi) because it's at the end of the Y just before the plenum. But in logs it still is hitting 30psi peak which is 4,000-5,500 rpm before it starts tapering down. Now my boost gauge/meth controller only goes up to 30psi so it won't read any higher...but go on an airstrip run with me and you will see the gauge pegged at 30psi during most of the run. Whether it's 30psi or 27psi on the launch it doesn't really matter. On an airstrip I still can't find anything that can out launch my car. Even the mighty 918 driven by a great driver (who did 9.7 @ 145 mph). |

What happened to that 996? |
My car leaves on 23psi boost. Totally plausible Adam's car is leaving at 30 plus psi boost!
|
30 psi? On launch?
That's probably absolute pressure yea? So around 1.1 bar |
Part of it is funny the other part is that some newb will read it and believe it.
