U guys need a real tune not a plugin like jbd, as u seen i kill m6 and other "fast cars"

[arayz]

But im selling my 335d, i had alot of fun but thinking of a R8, or just buy a apartment and try save som cash instead

[335dM]

I'm currently looking at a used white GT3 RS manual with 12k km's its a 2011.

Pffffft. You're running mid 11's huh

Doesn't DR like 10s on streets?

All jokes aside, I've seen DRs kill list and it's nothing to laugh at.

I stand corrected! I need to finally figure out my bmwhat app gauges and see whats wrong with my car. I should be in the 325-350hp range I would think... it doesn't seem quite right that the car isn't pulling faster times. Maybe I'll start another thread once I have time. Too much going on.

I also feel my D is kind of slow. It's a little better with JBD but not that impressive. I purchased bmwhat as well. So many settings not even sure where to start. Would be nice to know what to expect as far as optimal settings go in order to gauge if the car is running fine. If you or anyone else can share some basic settings to monitor that would be awesome (say like optimal temps, air, fuel...) . Maybe this needs needs to be a separate thread if there are a lot of things to monitor.

325-350hp to the crank or wheels?

Crank most likely. He's on JBD.

Crank. I have JBD and meth 50/50. I wouldn't be surprised to have around 300-315whp, but just saying that in general it should be faster.
Then again "JBD adds 80hp!!!!!" Lol

I have run 13,1 @ 107 many time with just a JBD @ 100%
I think something is wrong with your car.

I wonder if austin is quenching with his meth injection. One easy way to check would be to up the meth concentration to something like 75/25 for a test and see if you pick up a ton of speed. Does anyone know how you could check for quenching using logging software?

BUMP

My nozzle is probably overkill... 8gph at 150psi has got to be quite a bit of cc's per minute.

I did 13.3 at different tracks
13.3 all day long
On street tires

I'm running a cm10 nozzle at whatever the max PSI is on the pump. Were all probably using the same pump. I ran my 12.8 on a 50/50 mix, for whatever that's worth. I sometimes wonder if I am getting low RPM quench too but don't really know how I would check.

Just an idea....perhaps you can use one of those dyno apps on your smartphone. A few are said to be very reliable. Play with your meth settings to see if you pick up power during a run....

Well after loosing to this race, i asked myself why didn't i beat it! the first year with jbd @ 80% i could keep up more than that with an IS-F approx. same year.
So i brought my car to the dealer for maintenance. The S.A called me back 2 days later to tell me my DPF was fucked(clogged). Check engine. They are ordering a new DPF as well as a DDE for the second time. Last time i had trouble with my metering valve, they changed the DDE. So i'm not surprised i lost that bad to the is-F.
Well see if i see any difference in power.

Should have told the SA to keep the DPF and started the "deletes" process instead.

Why are they constantly changing out your DDE? Sounds to me like your dealer is clueless.

"Dart board" trouble shooting, anyone?

The ISF cannot be tuned, to date there is no tuning program for the Toyota ECU. The ECU in the car is continuously adjusting in its auto-learn mode. It can be piggybacked but I haven't read of any cars doing this reliably, HG makes something called the PowerPlug which has yet to see any real gains (maybe 20hp). These cars mostly rely upon and CAI, headers and exhaust which will usually get them in the 450/450 range. I've personally watched many an ISF run mid 12's in the 110-113 range bone stock. The 8-speed auto makes this car a killer from a roll. When this D's time is up, the F will be what replaces it.
