still couldn't produce that mid 11's run that he claims while on this local shop's "custom" stage 2 tune

and all this time, with all that money he spent on mods, he couldn't afford a Dragy...

BTW, what is the name of this local shop anyways? 10 sec software and not even a name?

Not really a long list of mods when you consider it's taking off close to 2 seconds from the factory 1/4 mile.

Yeah, I realize after I posted the way it might sound. I was agreeing with you. The car is moving for so few things done.

It's been a while since this thread has been active, unsure if any of you guys have seen this but DAMN



A beefed up M276 (still stock motor and turbo) literally competes with supercars with several more cylinders (in the same year make range). Impressive is an understatement

That is pretty impressive for what his modes are. I wonder what numbers he is on at the dyno. Also no newer style intakes, or heat exchanger. Pretty impressive.

I just put those number into a quarter-mile calculator, it say around or above 600 hp. I'm not sure he's making that much. What do you guys think?

Sounds about right, probably the max that those stock turbos can push before it fails on you. Jeff has done a lot of testing with his monstrous 43 and it's held very well it seems. WMI seems to help

We call this guy Canada Jeff. Jeff's car completed a 10sec run earlier this year I believe, or late last year. He shared his progress with his 1/4 time for 2 years in the whatsapp group long before he posted it on mbworld.

I believe his car is the only car to complete the 1/4 in under 11 seconds. But another car C450 (also owned by a Jeff, here in Taiwan. We call him Taiwan Jeff) came pretty close to a sub 11 run on several ocassions as well. He also did all this on a stock motor and turbo. Then he upgraded his turbos and realized the car wasnt any faster with just turbos.

Besides these 2 a few cars have been able to trap over 124mph but this Canada Jeff is the only 1 who was able to actually complete a sub 11sec 1/4.

Here's a clip of that 10.91, somehow came across it only recently for some reason. Wish more people pushed their 43s like his

Thank you! I keep waiting for anyone that has said they're going to put aftermarket turbos on a C43 to go ahead and do it. There are a lot of ways to reach the 10s in these cars, but 9's or faster, that's going to require more than just bolt-ons. For people who always claim the C43 is slow, this is definitely proof that it isn't.

What is this next step? METH KIT. This will allow for better cooling, no mixing/testing headaches, but also will allow me to raise the boost safety on my jb4 by a PSI or 2 (it's currently sitting at 20 Peak PSI Boost safety)

Will keep y'all updated!



hi I’m confused so what were all the mods u had to achieve the times here ? So all I would need is a jb4, meth kit, and e30? How would I make all this work with 91 octane in cali. I want a low 3.1 or 3.2 or even 3.3 0-60 time consistently.

It has been a while since you made this comment, but ditch the STP. Boostane is a much better product. The companies like STP barely improve octane.
