Are you doing the roll race at TX2K?

 

"The"? I plan on doing lots lol

 

I am taking about the sanctioned event at RPR

I know street racing start earlier in the week. Been there done that

 

Yeah, I was just horsing around. I am just going for the night stuff. Staying on the West side just for that.

 

cool sounds good. lets meet up

 

Yes sir! I got your number. Staying at the Marriot.

 

Lemme see if I can get these videos to embed.
First one is a couple small revs

And this one was a cold morning remote start.

 

Is that like a proof of life video from Speedriven?

 

Thats one of the bays in my shop...... if you look at my signature picture its the bay that blue Hyundai is in.

 

​​​​​​I'm pumped to see the car back with you! So it's back in your possession, and how's it running? Can't wait to see what the dyno shows at the wheels. I want to eat all my words and see these engine actually put down the power. I'm excited for you.

 

We are all rooting for you. We've seen great dyno graphs but the track runs have been woefully disappointing fo the advertised hp.

 

Do you mean cars with Scorpion intakes, that are dyno'd with the hoods open?

Nick

 

Well yes and no.... Those videos were from a couple weeks ago when they sent the car back. Had some issues as mentioned in previous pages so it went back to get corrected. Some scratches, forgot to do the new brakes and punctured an ABC line and set it for a 93 tune and forgot to instal the suspension module.
Thats all done now. They retuned the car for 100 octane and as of Tuesday I was told the car would spike 24psi when you went WOT and would ramp back to 17psi and then build back to 22 psi. The 24psi spike was causing the the tires to knock loose hard so he said he was fine tuning it to make the turbos come on smoother to eliminate the 24 psi spike. He also got the turbos to spool quicker down low and eliminate the turbo lag of the 58mm turbos.
So that was Tuesday, I figured a couple hours to tune the issue out but after calling Wed then Thurs then Friday and emailing today I still have no response. In the email I said I am over waiting on it and if it spikes it spikes just send me the damn car back. Still no response. I have big plans for Valentines day with my future wife and the car was a big part of it so I wanted it back. Since they had the car I have bought three other cars, a house, another business, had a custom driveway made for the car, remodeled the kitchen, went to Maui, had two surgeries, got engaged, secured a reception hall and still yet I dont have the car back yet.
That being said I did put a few miles on it and it drives/runs like a dream and that was nearly 200hp less than it now has. Quarter throttle in 1st and 2nd is useless. I cant believe it takes 4 days to soften the turbo spool though and would like an answer as to why the car isnt back yet. Patience has worn out so tomorrow night I am loading the trailer on the Denali and ill be there Monday morning to get the car and chew them out and demand a few grand back.
I will have Eurocharged finish the tune cause I can sit there and wait while they do it. Ive had enough of the games. I will yank the SD stickers off the engine bay and I already canceled the "SPDRIVN" plates I was ordering for it and getting "KILBILL" instead.
I believe I have been patient enough and I have always been friendly to them and understanding but it dont take a week to have the computer command the wastegate to open one more mm at WOT.

 

The Scorpion intakes actually proved to be too small for my car so they made a custom 3" system. Thats why mine is the only CL with the filters behind the grille.

 

That's a good sign. Can you post any pictures?

I'm imagining something like Zax63's S65, or Ekselent's SL600.

Nick

 

 

 

Lol.

 

Lol wow

 

Correct me if I am wrong but dont stock 65 spike to 22psi and then taper off?
My S600 with hybrid turbos only would spike to 24 and then drop to 17 18psi.

 

Dunno. Couldn't say. Car no longer does it and supposedly makes nice numbers. I am told it ill have the dyno sheet when the car is delivered this week. It is supposedly going on a truck today for delivery and is supposed to be all the way done. I am not holding my breath but there it is.

 

They wouldn't scan or email it to you? Take a picture of the screen or...........

 

I honestly didn't care enough to even ask. I cant tell you how many videos and pictured I have been promised and never got so I figure why even bother asking.

You are a better man than me

I would have already been tried -

convicted and the warden would

have thrown the switch

Ten months - $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

And still no data ect...

I have followed this thread from

day one

Very happy and excited in the

beginning followed by months and

months of bewilderment as to

what was taking place

Hopefully it has come full circle

and you can once again say

"Happy day! Got my CL65!"


Thank-You
D.B.
