There is no "melter map" really anymore, thats what all the races gas maps are with the new Beta Board. All my mods are listed in my signature. You can see my signature right? (just checking cause I just made it yesterday)

I am really hoping I can afford a used GTR for my next car but this lease on the 335i isn't up for another 2 years.
I think I know about the guy with the GT2. Very badass.

And Vic, is the IS-F your girl's car or you just got it for the hell of it? lol. I test drove one and although I liked the way the auto tranny shifted and thought the V8 actually sounded pretty cool, the overly stiff suspension wasn't my cup of tea.

Nah, it's a speed demon

The suspension was too stiff for me considering the type of car it was. I hit a few bumps and the thing was rock solid, which is great for performance, but I was getting out of a Z06 and didn't want a Lexus that hit harder than a 'Vette lol.

You're the moderator bro haha

Basic bolt ons like intake, headers, exhaust, and tune will bring you close to the 500rwhp mark. It is easily capable of trapping high 120's/130mph with these mods.

You can stay naturally aspirated and give it a musclecar feel with camshaft and heads. Gives the car a little rumble and makes it a monster throughout the powerband. Real nasty. It's what I had and it's just completely badass, but not for everyone. Maybe too much. I made around 550rwhp and torque with a camshaft, headers, intake, and tune only.

Procharger has a nice kit for it. Should give you 600rwhp+ and can be adjusted on the dyno to whatever you really want it to be. I think around 650rwhp is the limit on these motors before you need the bottom end built. With a built motor, you can go with a higher boost supercharger, twin turbo, nitrous, whatever! 1000rwhp is more than possible.

The Z06 is VERY drivable and liveable. It is not as luxurious inside and the leather and fake cf may look a bit cheap, but it's not as bad as people make it seem. Especially for the brand new price of 60 somethin' tho.

It's basically a racecar refined enough for enjoyable and liveable street and daily use.

You gotta drive one bro. Raw power that just keeps pulling.

Sorry to pollute this thread lol. Vic, here's a vid of my old Z in action out in Mexico against a car that traps 122mph.

It would have gotten worse if we could keep going but those damn Mexican truckers were in our way lol.

PS...ESP off on a dig street race = burnout competition? why? would cls55 benefit in a drag race on the st street by turning off ESP lol...

I didn't say dyno mode ... I dunno about how your car works, but with mine turned off, it's a no brainer perfect launch.

Believe it or not ... most all perfect launches are a combination of BURNOUT and Traction. At least that's what years of drag racing taught me. I dunno. Maybe I'm wrong.

How does your description of 100' burnout on reg surface streets factor into

or 1/4 mi comparo?

Bro, were not talking about 1320' or burnout in waterbox. The race was done on the streets NOT talking about DynomodeAsk Bassan07/E55 if he runs w/ESP on or OFF when going dwn 1/4 he ran 11.2xx @128.1 ESP ON works best

AVG J3 only on 93 octane is running 111-113+mph traps @ 12.40

Okay, is there any way to prove this was not a CLS500/550? The guy on the GTO board things it was a non AMG with a badge. Maybe experienced people on this board can tell by the sound of the engine?

http://www.ls1gto.com/forums/showthr...=324243&page=2

where is proof that is a cls55? It looks like a cls with wheels. Could be a 500 or a 550, both having less than 400hp... So many Benz owners fake it and throw Amg badges on non amg cars. I didn't see any signs of an amg package on that car

Well Bro, you should go to the drag strip and let em know they're all doing it wrong.

With ESP on, my CLS is like driving a 6cylinder.

With it off , it rips down the road like it should with JUST enough wheel spin while still making great traction. With it in dyno mode, it's time for a burnout competition.

So I don't know about how the E's are set up , but I would bet my life on which would give a better trap time on my CLS and win easily. Hell the Nanny ESP even kicks in when it hits second gear, like you got stuck in the mud.

Maybe with the 030's, ECU is set up more differently than just the exclusion of the speed limiter.

Having said that ... that CLS driver gave an obviously lame attempt IMO.

Not saying the 335 isn't fast. I'm sure it's very fast. But that CLS driver was weak.

All I know is ... what a proper CLS launch should look and sound like ... and that wasn't it.

That 335 should have been immeadiately presented with a view of CLS55 AMG a$$ , if it's anything like mine because it launches with aplomb. 0-60 in 4.4s is easy and repeatable. (With ESP off ) and I believe 4.2-3 is possible.

I have a stock E55 which is more then comparable to the CLS55 and I have had my @ss handed to me from 2 335is. I was racing on a failing IC pump which I now updated but they are quicker then your giving them credit for. I ran 2 C63's and beat them so I know my 55 is 1000% healthy now. I know blackedout335 will have no problem running me again. Once he gets his car back from service and we get this meet. You will see that they are just that dam fast man.

Man your dreaming, compare the Traps/ET's from Dragtimes your CLS55 will be beatin' by up to 3 lengths/2-3mph or DEAD even @ best VS J3 race map 93 oct modded 335i. Reality chk time

I can tell you first hand that was a AMG because I have driven the same exact 335i that is in that video because he's my cousin. I was in the car with him when he pulled on a e60 M5 from a low roll it was a short race but none the less it pulled. Not to mention monday night when I raced 2 C63s he and 1 of the C63's got a lil action and C63 wasn't getting away from it easily if not at all. So if that CLS was keeping up with the 335i Jb3 then it was def a AMG or it woulda got smoked.

335i
Just to give you some food for thought. My car weighs in a little above 3700 lbs (with a little weight reduction on my car) and I am producing upwards of 420+whp and 420+wtq on the new race gas maps.............
