Cool stuff, I know the guys @ RRE well, they built my whole car as well. Looks a bit laggy for a 35r on a 2.4, that's how it spools on my car, I got a .63 exhaust side so maybe that has something to do with it. Nice car man....next time you talk to Robert (either @ RRE or RRS), give my regards. I'm sure there was more left, I've hit 33psi on 110 octane @ Tuning Tech. and my clutch fitting blew wide open....those guys took care of me on their day off, nowhere else I would leave my dsm or evo other than rre. Who tunes your ems? Scot tuned mine and he's the only one I would let tune my car. That's a .82 a/r GT35r. I didn't want to go past 30psi because I used to drive it like that every day. I don't have the car anymore. I did tuning at AMS. A 440hp C32 is much more fun than a 750hp DSM. I do not miss it at all.

I think if I got rid of mines I'd miss it!

.82 a/r Ahhhh that explains the lag.

I mean that I like my AMG better in every way. AWD got real boring, RWD is so much more fun to drive. Also, there wasn't much choice in the power delivery. I was either putting along or flying like a missile. I tried everything too, like dynamic boost control, etc. The car also handled great, it has a JIC system tuned by Mueller and three LSDs. It also wasn't fun having to worry about breaking parts all the time. I had to have several TRE trannys in the garage so that I could do quick swaps. The car was a huge money pit. It ended up costing significantly more than a 911tt by the end, but that's life.

My little AMG has enough power to satisfy me, and I'm not embarrassed to be seen in it.
