Test Car Wanted from SoCal

ETD · 10-02-2007, 01:34 PM

I've been working with an aftermarket performance product engineer.
They are in need of several test cars from So Cal, preferrably in OC.
They are offering free performance products for your car, and they will provide you a rental car as well.
Your car will not be road testing, for Dyno testing only.

if you are interested, please PM me ASAP.

thank you

What products?

ETD · 10-02-2007, 01:49 PM

Please accept my apology if i cannot release the exact type of products online. i have watch and learn from many different company online, releasing information and have another vendor replicate the idea. However you will see the final product on the test car.

we have several products that are ready to be install and test. some which will have approx 30 hp gain or more. and another product will increase the handling and driving experience.

i hope you all can understand the privacy online.

This is a little strange since the exact products are not known.
Some of what will give you approx 30 hp gain?
There's no way I would give anyone my car until I knew what was being done to it.

ETD · 10-02-2007, 05:48 PM

Thank you for everyone's PM regarding our test products.

all products we are testing will be 100% bolt on, everything from in/out air supply. all items will be a simple install, and a simple un-install. we are simply using your car for fitment testing only, also running different dyno comparison.

please pm me for details

That's what I'm afraid of.

With respect, I'm sure the intentions are good by the op, but why keep it a secret with what's going to be done to the car?

I think you need to be a little more specific.

Does it matter if the car is a 335 with twin turbos or can it be a 325/328/330 in various coupe/sedan versions???

How long do you need the car for???

How about an e90.2??

Is not a secret at all. you will see it if your car is used for testing. So no secret at all. actually you are welcome to watch your car Dyno and see some great numbers.

I dont like to release or hint that i am coming out with something, and never happens. i rather test things quietly, and once is proven over and over again the numbers are there, i will post the results and pictures.

but i fully understand your opinion and your point of view.

My apology. the reason why i was not specific because we have parts for all models.

but our first release is for 335 (coupe and 4 doors).

sorry about the confusion.

thank you

magmd · 10-02-2007, 06:43 PM

Great...I am interested to see what you guys come up with for the 330, since everything else in the past has pretty much been a dud. The only things that were somewhat worthwhile...were cost prohibited, and it would be cheaper to trade in for a 335.

But I understand that most tuners are focusing on 335 performance gains as there is so much potential there.

Good luck!
