Ok I mis spoke. I meant street tunning then dyno tunning. Because of the higher volume of CFM on the street, dyno tunning (non-loaded dynos) can cause a serious lean condition and we all know what can happen with that.

One-off caliper adapters made my Rotora will arrive Wed to finalize the front/rear brake job. As most of you V12TT guys know, the front calipers are massive when you actually hold them but next to those 12 piston cal/16 rotors, its almost cartoonish. Those Rotoras are just gargantuan.

Today came in my in-car 4 camera system with quad splitter system with an external camera support that can handle 200mph. If all goes well, I should have some great vids with a 4-way screen.

I have far more tech details for the true fanatics but I am holding off, until I get final confirmations. I dont want to be premature in announcing anything at this point as has happened so often before on this forum.

In front of the custom massive Bell HE is the oil cooler, which should come in handy on extended acceleration (i.e. 200mph)

I believe the smaller turbo looking things are the insanely massive external wastegates....how did you plumb in the oil cooler? Since I don't know much on the oil system on one of these, is there any kind of stock oil cooler or stock trans cooler? I know heat is a huge enemy for high end runs, and is usually a big cause of engine and trans wear.
