To show acceleration. That's the point.
Your video doesn't seem all that quick. Mine is quicker, though I haven't gone out and timed runs.

I do agree with your point about big body its and huge wheels, etc. People need to focus more on performance. I'm tired of seeing bolt-on cars running mid 14's because they have huge wheels, subs, etc.

That's very disappointing that there no gains for NA with the Cosworth. Guess I'll get a Motordyne setup (lower plenum and spacer) and get the Cosworth much later.

That was a single turbo sedan. Runs high 12s low 13s I believe.

Haha, I wasn't talking about him! I was talking about the second video you posted!

With better traction yours will be quicker (FYI, I think mine is SLOW AS *****), but I'm jaded. I just want this car to go faster! I am so frustrated from the wait with Hypertech. There are very few people who are truly innovate in terms of G35 performance, and you seem to be one of them, so keep up the good work! I'm interested to see how the E85 works out.

Btw, ever consider the Kinetix Velocity Manifold? It's a new design, it replaced the SSV, and supposedly it has good top end gains. PM me, and ill send you over the info from an owner I talked to.

I would suggest SGM long tube headers and cams if you really want to move.

I can agree with you on that.
Looking nice and pretty is one thing.
But whats the point of spending all the $ on suspension and wheels and engine setups, if ur gonna act like a lil girl and worry about ****. Look good, and keep ur hood closed at aggressive fitment meets lol.

But u also couldnt even get one good run from dig. lol
I think my Awd gets to 80 way quicker with 5at. Im more then sure top end a stock 6mt will prbbly keep up and walk me tho.
with Awd its always a good launch lol.

Sweet! It took me 8.9 seconds to get to 80 not long ago. Not fast at all by any means, but it's good for now.

I can get cams but not the headers because I want a TT kit some time later. Some JWT cams and springs to rev much higher.

but then you'd be in the same boat just a lot more $$$$$ unless you want to drive a car that looks and performs like all the others...

I guess my point is, people do what makes them happy with their cars - your point was regarding a G and I'm telling you it can look good and be performance oriented/capable (many of us have done it).

keep up with what your doin andrei good stuff just don't take some criticism to harshly everyones got their own opinion. I like both the fat stances and lowered suspensions its newer to me but i will always like the pure adrenaline associated with the power a car yields.

ofcourse u can bro, A single turbo or vortech never hurt nobody but the feelings of some Ms or amgs. lol
my point was only towards riding 215 on 10.5-11inch rim and having a Fi set up. lol
