Procede vs Stock vs Prototype exhaust

So all the Procede guys and potential Procede guys have some reference, I'll post this........

Last weekend, I had a prototype exhaust installed.
From the DPs back, center cat deletes, 12" perf resonators and cans.
It's making more power for sure, as I could brake the Toyo's loose in 2nd.

I ran my buddy with his stock 335 vs my exhaust 335i.
Both Steps.
Ran from 2nd gear to 80-90ish.
By that speed, I would have about 1 car length on him.
So, it certainly is making a bit of power........ cool, thats what you want.
(dyno's to come, on my car this weekend)

Today my buddy had his car Proceded.
We took it for a drive.
I could feel the difference in cars right off the bat with just a little throttle given, not WOT. His car was 'spunky' to say the least.

We then ran on the same road, same ways.
This time, by 90 he had 2-2.5 car lenghts on me.

So, if we did a 1/4 mile run he'd have had about 4, if not slightly more.

My car, using a VBox GPS Performance box runs 4.7s to 60.
(0-60 and 1/4 mile times/trap speeds with VBox to come next weekend)

I can't wait for my prototype exhaust to be in full production mode, so I can have my car tuned.

The Procede delivery was smooth and seemless.
No turbo spiking or jerky throttle response.

All in all, I was very impressed with Shivs work and I'm a guy that dumps ALOT of money into cars.......ALOT...........

The LSD will really make this car a sleeper off the line.

Just a Non Biased, non owner reponse to Procede and what it can transform this car into.

:rocks:

So if your car does 0-60mph in 4.7 sec. (based on your V-Box GPS), then assuming your buddy's PROcede-equipped car can hook up quickly and get a good launch, then what would you estimate his 0-60mph and 1/4 mi. be...4.2 sec., 4.3 sec., 4.4 sec. / 12.4 sec., 12.6 sec., 12.8 sec.?

From driving his car a bit, I'm sure this is a mid 12 car.
With the addition of an LSD and good rubber.

We didn't do any runs from a dig, which I guess we should have.
0-60 or 60' times will all be dependant on traction as we all know.

My guess, with LSD, full exhaust and tune.
0-60 4.3-4 avg
1/4 about 12.4 @ 111
Probably a bit better when CAIs, FMICs and Race gas are used.
I'll bet we'll have a 335 running 11.80s soon enough.

Just guesses of course......

But, the thing about this car was how it pulled in it's midrange.

I've ran a few stock e46 M3s with my car it was a pretty even fight all round.
A Procede car with full exhaust and LSD will be running in a whole new crowd.

I've driven RS4s, S8's, F360's, 996TTs, M5s.
This car, when fully blown out, will have alot of high dollar cars wondering what hit them or at least ran with them.....
It's going to suprise alot of car guys for sure.

Game On !!!

GOT LSD?

Hey Kurt, funny, I just posted this very same story as well as
my run with David in the S4.

http://e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=46947

Oh well, now there's two threads of the same story from both of us.
