My Supercharged AMV8
My Supercharged AMV8
My car has arrived. I took my wife for a ride right after delivery. As we pulled through 3rd gear to redline, the g's kept building and she screamed. She claims we became airborne but I assured her it was not so. This car is now fast and a turbo competitor! My wife does not usually scream. Not in cars anyway! 
Performance Numbers
I have analysed my car stock and now with the supercharger using the GPS based accelerometer AX-22 from Race Technology. I am not a professional and have below average driving skill, so keep that in mind when you see the data. The results:
.......................Stock.....Supercharged
0-60mph...........5.25.............5.0
0-100mph........11.75...........9.35
0-200Kph.........18.7.............13.8
0-130mph.........20.4............15.5
60-130mph.......15.15..........10.5
60ft...................2.47...........2.58
1/4.mile............13.6...........12.97
1/4.mile.speed..108mph.....120mph
The supercharged car should be capable of
high 11's with the correct tires and driver.

Here is the video of the crappy launch that provided the data.

What kind of exhaust is on your car? I need a supercharger.

j 0-60 doesn't seem wright. Have you tried it more than once? The other numbers are impressive. I just kinda thought that the extra HP would bring about a better launch.
Just did the one launch.
Exhaust is stock. I do have Larini Cats though.

+130hp/90tq = 
and almost 5 seconds off 60-130mph is just 
@ 4.5psi. What kind of supercharger is that if you don't mind me asking. I already got my Vanquish back from mansory and they did a hell of a job. If i don't end up selling my db9, i might supercharge that if they have a kit. In the video was that backfire from 4th to 5th, that sounded NICE!
