Agreed, it may not make a whole lotta sense if you look at this vid on it's own, but Ranger and Josh have you not seen the slew of vids I've done? If you look at all the other comparo's that have been done it makes sense. It's the DCT, I have little doubt, as I ran my buddies modded DCt and we were very close in 1 run.

I recently ran my buddies E92 M3 fully modded with 4.10's and pulled a few CLth's. Here's a the other comparo's that may clear up the confusion. This car with a few bolt ons plus the DCT is an over achiever IMHO, although the run with my buddies C6 Z06 sure put things into perspective, lol.

kewl

 

Watched the runs and it's great for you and congrats but I'm still confused.
Things just do not add up. I understand the quickness of the DCT and its advantage.
You consistently out pull cars with way more rwhp.
On the last video first that E60 M5 is dreaming if he thinks he has 500 rwhp.
and to out run a 996 TT that's modded seems incredible. On the second run the 996TT did not catch you.

I mean this is great believe me but I'm just amazed that cars with much more rwhp are beat. Even the Evosport C63 just barely got by you.

Whatever you're doing keep doing it.

That M5 made 500whp on a dynopak, probably 430 on a DD's and 450 on a DJ, the dynopak he ran on is notorious for high #'s, but that's what he said he made. Agreed it doesn't seem like it makes that much, lol, I think he will concur with that as well.

The 996tt got a bad start on that one run, I did a little better with my shifting as well.

I can assure you there is nothing special on my car, just the bolt ons, I'm just as surprised as anyone else, but the DCT does a lot. Here's a run with my buddies DCT M3, he has a full exhaust and drop in, a tad lighter than me, while I have the Flash and pulley, along with the stock muffler, but I'm still making a bit more power. We've ran a handful of times, it was close on a couple runs the others I got him by 1-2 cars, here's 2 of the runs that were filmed/posted.

hey guys, I run with drew every other weekend, and his car is quick! I did have a very bad start on that 2nd run... but his DCT is no joke... look at the GTR, dual clutch makes a huge difference. guys can sit around and calculate dynos and weights all day. We run for real, and the results speak for themselves. For example, i ran that C63 dead even from 40 to 160... put in race gas the next weekend, took him by 2 cars... it's not a dyno sheet that shows 20 rwhp with race gas, it's actual results against cars we run all the time. This is the true indicator of what mods will perform and won't. I don't even know what my car dynos at, but I do know that a stock ZO5 beats me... lol... and i know which cars I beat with whatever mods they have. See you this weekend D! We'll get some new cars to run...
