That kind of speed puts you in the 600 rwhp range.

I don't remember but I'm sure it's on here somewhere. I think we were around 620rwhp and close to 700 lb/ft on the spray. 60' was 1.67 or 1.69 I think.

Ken, we're racing at Sebring this weekend, come on up. I'll take you around the track in the M6.

Ken,

Remember when I said that I was targetting for 650rwhp with the Stage I kit (hint hint)... Well.. We arrived at that number because we want a 10sec E55 with NO NOS.. So.. We basically are going to replace the bottle Derek HAD with the 2 turbos and that should put his car back in the 10s without the giggle gas..

We dont just pull numbers out of thin air you know.. There WAS a reason for that magic number.. LOL..

Thanks for the info Derek. I guess that realistically says that you have to go with more FI to get those #'s. - Don't think you can get that high simply by tweaking and turning up the screws to our present design
Oh well........I'm going to investigate NTL

As for Sebring....I'd love to come but am flying to Texas tomorrow for the weekend...Gonna spend 4 days camp'n at a lake with a bunch of friends
Thanks for the invite though!

Hey elturco. A lot of people have been waiting for months for the picture of your C32 and Z06 together. Hows that coming along? Have you had a chance to take a single picture of your cars in the last few months?
