Everything . Turbos, intercoolers, tranny, methanol injection, upgraded intercooler hoses, braided lines to replace all rubber hosing, lighter two piece brake set up, better compound in brake pads, carbon fiber race seats, scrouth harness,going to do the back seats in carbon fiber, cf air in take box with high flow air filters, new upgraded pistons.3" exhaust system from the downpipes all the way to the mufflers.Stainless steel braided brake lines. A beefed up transmission.

I posted it about 6 months ago. Average GTs pulled from 420whp to 425whpThis new version for some reason hates the dyno. She cuts off boost when we exposed to much on her on the dyno. Sensors are sending sneaky messages to ECU to not let her boost. On the streets, she does what she was designed to do. Really frustrating I have researched this with other Bentley tuners around the world and they think that her speed sensors are telling her,"What da hell.!?"

Gotta let the tuners tweak on her map again. Just built and installed some really high flowing intercoolers, so the old tune is a bit off. Might have to beefed up the front and rear diffs. I think she might damaged them or snapped them.

You keep referring to her as female. Try turning her brain completely off and that should work.

Now this would probably work. In a couple weeks aim go to try a different tune on her. And two fans on the dyno. One for each intercooler. I am sure I can get crazy numbers out of her like this.

Hum I hear, in the dyno world, that this is akin to propped up #'s. It is my belief that you should strive to get real street numbers and avoid the inflated numbers that are possible with manipulations.

Yes it's true. Real street numbers is what counts. I seen this YouTube video of a Bentley tuned to 700hp. They filmed and claimed 0-60 in 3.3 sec. I thought to myself. Humm, that car is spinning on the dyno. What about her weight and areodynamics when you put those factors in on the streets? He won't be getting 0-60 in 3.3 then. On our minor tune we got 3.5 sec 0-60. That's because I didn't want to blow anything up yet. I am thinking when I lightening her up about 125lbs more, she can dip under 3 second. she spins my 21" wheel set up. I went back down to my Savini 20" monoblock with Nitto 555r drag set up and she pounces like rhino!

In all fairness to her. She does need separate fans for her intercoolers. When you are driving in the streets. Air hits both intercoolers. Tuners only use one fan on her and I believe this is not applicable. She needs the equal amount of air hitting those intercoolers. CFM would be off? Bentley w12 platform has amazing power and torque. Now the only question I asked myself, what OEM parts can sustain my torture?
