Vishnu/FFTEC Single Turbo Real World Testing: Day 1 and 2

Syndicategt · 04-04-2012, 01:19 PM

I can't wait to see some real driving (ie road course) or the boost turned up for some runway action

That picture looks like the big persian dude who came to my house threatening to beat me up

Pfffff "desert testing"

Congrats on the progress so far. I don't think you have stopped driving the car since the single turbo went in. Your a mad man!

Loving the real world beat down she is taking.

no-lift-shift, a newer procede feature that lets you keep the gas pedal floored during shifts

It also makes me question all of hotrod runs with the times you posted.

yea, awesome job and numbers but i'm also interested in some 'real world' numbers too.. all four stock seats in the car, 93 pump gas and no meth.. just the turbo, IC, and tune.. only what is 'required' to support the single turbo..

venom3469 · 04-04-2012, 02:27 PM

Very nice!!

TMR · 04-04-2012, 02:41 PM

I know there are stock cars that have had problems after that many launches and hard runs. The fact that this car has 85K HARD miles shows, when properly setup ( suspention, lsd, PROCEED, PWM Meth, flywheel, clutch, maintenance and whatever else shiv has done ) Not only does it show his kit is strong, the motor is strong and his TUNE is strong. As far as i know, no other tuner is doing this kind of testing / abuse / time to take the N54 platform ( possibly N55 too ) to the next level. WELL DONE Vishnu Team.

The backfire occurs when you accidentally slam into the rev limit when the engine is accelerating fast under boost. It's from the throttle slapping shut instead of closing gradually.

That should be a mandatory feature built into the tune...just for the coolness of the sound!!

dlbrooks18 · 04-04-2012, 04:14 PM

This car is a BEAST! I love the sound!! So Shiv how much is this kit gonna cost!?

4doorbmwpower · 04-04-2012, 05:19 PM

keep up the great work guys your like hero's of the N54 community lol

OpenFlash · 04-04-2012, 06:04 PM

Thanks guys!

Day 2 of magazine testing (Dyno) is done! It was nice to see that we are making more power than ever before. We are not allowed to reveal the final numbers until the magazine goes online with the story. But we will post up several videos of the tires losing traction on the dyno (in 4th gear). They eventually had to have a 230lb man sit IN THE TRUNK to keep the tires from spinner. You guys will love the videos
