Can you elaborate on the tune please? Especially about "problem of the map sensor(short circuit to positive)"

I have no idea what that means.

Thanks in advance!!

I believe it has been discussed in SRT forum. I still can't believe that we C32s still can't solve the problem of boost limit. I am hitting the overboost code sometimes on mine. I want to break the 23psi limit. I think no one care about C32 anymore

You know, Ali does have a point. If you catch any fast car off guard or get the digg on him, they can be beat. I raced an M5 after our Joliet Lexus day last year and ran right with him just after getting my Code III pully, Jerry Tune and intake? It is entirely possible to run with one. I didn't pull him and he didn't pull me, so this kill is believable. I think there was an M6 last year at US 41 and I recall outgunning him by about 1.5 to 2 cars as well.

+32, Again, it is entirely plausible to beat one, particularly (and only if) you are modded. I know that Jake's car is a monster for a C32 and his times are better than most of the M5 s on the Dragtimes list, so again, I can see Ali doing this. Wish we had a vid or something??

frankenstein 2001 CLK 430
heyyy guys, i usually hang around the clk w208 forums, Ali is my friend, i saw this drag race live (illegal street racing :P) the cars went off stand still, the road was in good condition so there is no traction issues, the kid driving his M5 is really a good driver too, but Ali's car is totaly modified, he is always under the hood tinkering and putting new stuff in, i wont relist them again as he did already before, we will try again this weekend with videos for sure... this c32 honestly is a freakingly fast, it beats all the c32 here with similar pullies, ali has modified several tunes for a long time to make it run like this, for all u guys over there a video will be taken on the weekend, and for all u guys here in Lebanon Beirut you are welcome to come and watch also bring ur camera with u

NICE KILL ALI ... I KNOW ITS HARD FOR THEM TO BELIEVE, THEY MUST HAVE BEEN THERE AND SHARE THE JAW DROPPING EXPERIENCE AS I DID

btw we are also preparing my clk i got a full 55k supercharger ....

Ditto.
While anything is plausible, the fact that a relatively new member comes on here and makes a claim to have beaten an M5 (still don't know the year or mods to other car) by 4 lengths in a 1/4 mile, it's sets off the BS detector. The mystery tune and 80mm TB from a junkyard (odd) along with claims to easily smoke the fastest 32s we know of also makes me raise an eyebrow.
There are several M5 owners on these forums giving modded E55/63 and C63s fits. While I would like to think my baby V6 can smoke anything with four tires, reality sets in and I can't see the W203 taking any modern M5...let alone one with mods.
Now, if we're talking a stock E23 M5 vs modded 32, then I would be suprised he only won by 4 lengths. It's all in the details, which were left out of the initial thread.
Bring on the video(s)! I would love to be wrong and see our baby 203s whoopin some modern M tail.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the magic M button in the M5. Entirely possible the car was running in P400 mode which restricts power down to 400hp. Pushing the button raises the roof to the full 500hp.

Cut the M5 down to 400hp and with the C32 that modded and it's a little easier to explain. :-)

this is true. i recently read about this. 100 hp is quite a big difference and could explain 4 car lengths.

im MY race, he definitely had the full 500hp

Test drove one that was in the 400 mode and the car felt sluggish and really unimpressive, 500 mode and the thing was a beast!

Agreed 100%. Drove one while doing the Gotham Dreamcar Tour. The difference between the button being on vs off was incredible. The seats that move to hug you when you go around corners still make me smile though. Scared the crap out of me at first, heh.
