The G may be difficult to launch in the first second or so... but after that, the traction is not the limiting factor - you just floor it. In the Viper, you have to modulate that power well into 3rd gear... and that's if traction is good.

FYI to everyone. I gotta get this damn car dynoed!!! Temps are too hot right now compared to when I dynoed. Waiting for the next cold front to move through. But I ran 2004 M3 this morning of a guy I know that runs a performance shop.
The car is stock, its a 6mt. We have raced before and he beats me, but slowly. Maybe 2-3 cars by 90~. Now, he can't pull from me. We were dead even each race, by 3rd gear I was pulling away SLOWLY from him. He was like what the heck did you get. I was like ummm secret.
He couldn't believe my car got that much faster. We have ran many times and its always him, this time around my G35 took him. We ran on the highway from 50-120 (yes I know, don't lecture me about it but it was a open 4 lane highway and wasn't much traffic at this point), and I just pulled away slowly from him each time we got on it.
I couldn't believe I was actually pulling on him. The car is strong. It is a 13 sec car now, just not sure where.

(to all looking for MREV info - forget it, this aint it...)
Tony, the web layout looks good.
On the iso-thermal instructions, I just finished the install (upgrade for 3/8 spacer) - lovin it so far!
But, I think you need to add to the instructions - the section on removing the lower plenum are pretty lean - it only shows a picture of 8 bolts to remove, doesn't mention a few pipes and a few brackets that need to be moved out of the way. Itwasn't hard, but some might appreciate more detailed instructions.
Keep up the good work - looking forward to a backwards-compatible MREV.... for the '03 (pls, pls pls....)

I'll hook you up! LMK when.

PS Can you guys LMK what you think of the attached example of the new website. What are your thoughts?
I need to make a better looking website. Hopefully this one will be done soon.

Your viper launches sound similar to my vortech-blown cobra experiences. With 4.10 gears and 460 RWTQ, 1st through 3rd gears were only good for tire smoke. You had to modulate the throttle until you hit 4th gear. The nose was back and forth on the track.....it was more like sledding on ice.
It is true, the G is only difficlut to launch in terms of getting a decent 60' time. It is either a bog or a wheel hop for the G. After that, it is a baby.

also smoked a base model rsx with cybernation's stage1 turbo and garudian ECU w/ 3" exhaust & intake
got owned by a evo w/intake, cams, catback, and high flow cats
spanked the living shiet outta a stock RX-8 manual
won vs a new 330i

Installed it on the dyno.

Wow! That's quite an amazing result, if not creating quite a stir around here.
Can't wait to view your dyno results.
How does your car handle the extra torque in the lower gears with regard to driveability? And all you have added to your car is a Z Tube?

Klumzyee, where was the other G in that race, in a manner of speaking?

Very easy. http://www.maxbimmer.com/forums/show...threadid=17873
Look at that stock dyno of a BMW. I probably dyno about the same with a lighter car.
