When you beat him b4 did he have the airbox mod?

Jons95c36amg

No. Same set up. We ran a total of like 7runs not on same day. I beat him 5times His sig only once So he is chickening out for rematch?

Jons95c36amg

My bad yes he had airbox mod.

bmanny

Ok out of all the runs who is the champ (won the most)?

E55AMGGG04

I dont think i got in a thread without seeing jon vs propain lol. You guys kill me man loll. Nice run vs the M6 though, those bad boys move in those high speeds.

Jons95c36amg

Hmm I won roughly 5times. Him only like 2.

bmanny

So why you guys keep racing? how many times you want to win? lol

Jons95c36amg

For sure those modded M6s have insane topend.

Jons95c36amg

Because he doesnt admit he lose that many

bmanny

What do u guys mean by a MODDED M6? like a exhaust and drop ins? or software

Jons95c36amg

Your car is alot faster then a stock m6 so you got Work done!

bmanny

I just have a Full RPI GT exhaust RPI says Expect a 10-17whp gain and 50lbs in weight savings. And i have the RPI ram air kit RPI says expect a 16-22whp gain with 70mph airflow. That is all my performance mods. So i am worked? i thought worked was software

Jons95c36amg

16-22whp with 70mph airflow. So faster the speeds you get more power. You started to come 125 so your seeing 40ish whp right there.

bmanny

LOL that is just what RPI claims to sell a product probably . Ive never dyno my car before but i will friday or saturday . Most stock m6 baseline whp is around 410-420

AlbertM

The dyno wont show these type of gains anyway, since you wont be able to simulate same airflow. I think RPI air scoops work. I think it will work like ram air, forcing more air into the intake as speed builds up, that in turn should cause more fuel to be dumped as well to maintain the AFR -- more fuel, more air -- more power. But you wont be able test that on a dyno.

bmanny

Interesting so how did RPI come up with those numbers?

AlbertM

Who knows, but in principle it should make power, and most likely more power with less restrictive exhaust.

bmanny

Could be true on my E60 M5 i had the rpi ram air kit. I notice some gains but i did not have a full RPI exhaust i had Meisterchaft. On the M6 the scoops are much bigger dont know if that matters but i feel much more power than i did in my M5 maybe its the whole RPI combo There exhaust and scoops

AlbertM

Most likely is the reason, one helps the other.

Jons95c36amg

What you should really do is take it to the dragstrip.

andy_c63

Well, you can't really conclude from the video how fast they were going. So unless they come forward and confess there should be no problem. IMO.

Jons95c36amg

Plus that was in Mexico

118E63

Wow,its amazing how jon just cant let it go..unbelievable really..and playing himself out for all to see no less. Honestly,whats the big *** deal? It'd be different if this "race" was for $10k...then,maybe then,we could all understand the nonsense&sniveling..But it wasnt,so what gives?


Propain,your sig is hands down the most iconic sig on this website...ProjectC55 will be very proud Im sure!!!!

TopEndS62

Exaclty, take em to the track!!! Dynos are only good to measure gains. IMHO WHP vary on different dynos.

I hear what you're saying, but they have written on here multiple times the speeds they were running and regardless of exactly how fast the odometer says, at full throttle with multiple gear shifts, you don't have to be a genius to conclude they're traveling above and beyond "reckless" speed limits (120mph or 140mph you're still going to jail).

You can live in fantasy land and pretend there isn't enough evidence, but you'll have a tough time convincing a judge
Anyway, I'm sure they'll be fine, but just be careful with what is posted, that's all I'm saying--the gov't has nothing better to do right now

for the record, if that bridge was near me, you can bet I'd frequent it as well (just no video)--maybe I'm just a tad jealous and a lot paranoid!
