good luck.

I want to see how that thing handles with the new tune

mwahlert · 02-05-2010, 07:13 PM

were you guys testing a set of FPs? how did that go?

McMuffin · 02-05-2010, 07:45 PM

Great job guys! Do you think our engines can handle 500whp on stock internals? Keep us posted. Don't let the shit talkers keep you from posting.

a32guy · 02-05-2010, 07:54 PM

Very nice Eric! When are you going to send Tony a set to tune out here in CT?

GreenPlease · 02-05-2010, 08:31 PM

Just having headers with a different flange would be nice. That way there would be some variety when it came to snails.

Donald-335i · 02-05-2010, 08:43 PM

great i would be interested in 440rwhp with no meth.. hell its more then enough to beat most of the cars on the road.. if you can keep this pkg around 2-3k i'm down.

I'd be curious to see a dyno that starts around 1,000-1,500 rpm so we can see how it spools down low.

Yes, but why downshift?

Presidio335xi · 02-05-2010, 09:59 PM

people are asking for a $2-3k upgrade, but what are we really talking? $5k+? I know you cant say but can you atleast ballpark?

huyner328 · 02-06-2010, 03:53 AM

I take it you guys have done extensive testing with the CP-E Standback... so how is it?

GreenPlease · 02-06-2010, 09:57 AM

If anyone really wants a turbo upgrade they can just buy Eric's car

ShortCkT101 · 02-06-2010, 10:06 AM

2-3k you wish and I wish dude. Defiantly going to be over 6k with custom manifolds.

The standback works great. I am glad we had it as a tool other wise tuning would be impossible on our side.

As far as selling the car, yes I am...it's no secret. I actually have it for sale on here too. That doesn't mean we are stopping R&D...I just can't afford to have the car anymore. I need to start saving for a home and the 335 just isn't practical right now

What? You forgot the golden rule: "You can always sleep in your car, but you can never race your house!"

cn555ic · 02-06-2010, 11:08 AM

Wow...selling the car for a house is great.....But if your selling the car, the likelihood of a turbo upgrade is compromised because you no longer have a shop car to work and test a turbo upgrade
