street races last night(my let exp)

so we get hit with some awesome weather this weekend,get out of work and me,my bro and cousin head down to brothers kouzina for some nice greek food.After enjoying my gyro dinner we hit the sceen up.There was over 200 cars out tonight,races everywhere.we hit up one spot and chill for a while.Funny watching people bring there cars on freaking flat beads(stay away from those guys lol)so after a while I raced my friends ko4 s4 on meth and e85 gas.

Mind you,I almost towed my car that same moring(long story there)lets just say my tb decided to inhale my gasket and get the thing jamed wide open.

first race was the best one,you know when you get the car to put down all the power without the stupid electronics kicking in,well that happened and was the best feeling.

we line up around 20mph and im in first with 2 poeple in the car with me,my friend has a passenger also.I let him get the jump and then I puched it and got 2 cars on him fast,pulled another half car and then I let off.

2 min down the road at a light the cops start coming,now there were about 10 cars behind me lining up and racing after us,my bros like you goood there no way he saw you guys.either way no body got pulled over....thank god,120 in a 40 would of been bad.


second race I screwed up and hit rev limit in first then the car decided to take a **** before it shifted to second and by that point the s4 was gone.

had fun and my e55 didnt blow up

2006 E55 AMG --old cars -- E39 M5, 2.7tt Audi S4, E36 M3 **Ducati 996, 748
ko4 S4 can be very fast !!! I am surprised you won. If the s4 is driven right, I think it should win. I had an s4 equipped with only downpipes & chip and that car was super quick--During that time -- I was beating M5's, Zo6 and the new Cobra. If i had upgraded to the ko4 turbos it would have been insane... but I could be mistaken -- that was along time ago when a 400hp car was very rare.

I had a stage 2 s4 as well and they're not that fast. Maybe back then but not now. Which m5 were you beating? you must of had a healthy s4 because the e39 m5 will destroy a stage2 s4 up top. bad. This s4 is not your normal off the shelf stage 3 car, This s4 would destroy a OTS stage 3 s4. Your average stage 3 s4 puts down roughly 375-410 whp. How should that beat a modded e55? Btw I can vouch because skratch is my brother and the s4 belongs to one of my buddies. My friends own some of the fastest ko4 s4's in the country.

yeah - you are right -- it was fast for back then --I needed to think more.

My car was very strong and boosting alot. Top end was the weak part of the car because of those little S03 turbos = the s4 completely dies around 130mph --- However, most races were over before that-- including the E39 M5.

I know my E55 would kill my old S4. I just could not recall how much of a difference Ko4s would make up... I guess I can feel more confident about my car.

How in the heck did your tb try to swallow up your gasket? Glad it didn't. Nice kill too, just wish there was a video.

man it was scarryyyy,thought I blew the tranny,engine and dropped the drive shaft at the same time.

I was in M-2 and nailed it getting on the highway with a 7 series behinf me.took it to about 80 in second and let off the gas,car was going nuts,tranny said M and gear D was shifting on its on back and forth.I threw it in N like a spilt second after it happend and the rpms were bouncing around 2300 and the engine sounded like it was skipping bad.

coasted off the freeway and called jerry on the spot,thinking I was the next e55 to blow up.

He told me one other kid had the same problem and to check the tb gasket.i scanned the car first and it threw a performance tb code and the tps was at 40% with the car off.once I saw that I figured the tb plug came loose of the stupid thing stopped working.

Once the thing was off Jerry was right,the gasket was torn in half and got pinched in the tb blade.I got lucking the S/C didnt suck it in there.Cleared the codes and headed to work lol

Great, something else to watch for with our mods. I would have thought the same thing you did with these blown engine posts of late. Does your TB have two gaskets? Was it the round gasket or the larger inner gasket that broke? I'd imagine it was the round gasket but just want to be sure. Thanks for sharing.

I had the gasket super glued to the ypipe,but from taking it on and off so many times to try and fix my 505 code the glue broke around half of the ring.

If it wasnt for the other half still glued the gasket would of went into the supercharger.

Don't know yet. Car hasn't been dyno'd and isn't fully tuned yet. Other cars have made around 600whp and some even more with this setup

Chill bro, all I said was cool story bro, no need to make this something it's not.
Not to mention, if you didn't care what others on the internet thought, you wouldn't make a thread, bro.
I read it now, nice job. Bro

Bro, it's an internet forum. Chill out... Why would I have something against you...
Yes, I don't know you and you don't know me, therefore my post was just a post for the sake of posting. As it seems there's not much posting here for such a large forum.
lol
