The only problem I found with it, is anytime I got a text on my cell phone, it killed the stream and I had to relaunch the app.

Maybe in the future, I can set up some kind of tripod at the MIR starting line, and stream live racing. I got about 2 hours of live streaming before the battery started dying on me.

BTW, 527RHP and AFRs were at 11.9 or so.


And Bukasa's car is gonna fly on Friday. Write it down. You heard it here first.

I caught some of it and thought it was pretty damn cool. Jeremy does work and I want Peter's job. Thanks for sharing, Clayton.

And yes, BT needs to sticky a step by step guide on how to properly mod the 55k platform. He has done it 100% compeltely right and that will pay off for sure on Friday.

Got a flash tune. Hung out to watch another member (e55rocket) get his dynoed, Man was it putting down some hp/torque. He sure was quick, we did a mini run on 95South :-)) .

M6 and C63 also showed up but left in the middle of the M6 dyno. Going home i could sure feel/notice the difference in response when i stepped on the gas.

Jeremy- it was good to meet you and thanks for flashing the car. Next mod pulley, then eventually headers.

Mods are ECU/TCU tune, BMC air filters and muffler delete.

TQ numbers were unattainable this time. Estimated 650wtq or so. Who knows. Car was dynoed on a dyno dynamics previously at 610wtq. Current tune has shown a 5 mph increase at the 1/4 mile over previous tune.

Generally, 600s see 80-100whp/wtq with just a tune.
