has any one gone 10s or trapped 130+ with just 93 oct full weight with standard mods, crank pulleys, headers, 82mm TB ?
New PB at GLD tonight, added bonus of beating a Modded E63TT!!!

Full interior, weight reductions being the braille battery, 2 piece evosport rotors, and the clk wheels. I may be pulling the interior/dropping exhuast to hit the 10's once the 109 tune is done and loaded.
Thanks you sir, and done!!

I know Hammerdown ran 10.8 and 10.9 with those mods but I think he may have had a race tune. Full weight and he is a big guy like myself around 250 lbs.

I've gone 10's full weight and me at 250+ lbs with the usual array of mods on an OE 91 tune. I accomplished 10's on my 4th attempt then I went out a couple of weeks later and on my first run I went 10.8 so I went home and have pretty much been retired from drag racing. I know she's got more in her especially if I can improve my 60' and get it down to the 1.5's. Nothing like going to the track and slapping on a set of clk wheels & MT dr's and run 10's.

I am extremely happy with my run tonight at the drag strip. When pulling into GLD I see a E63 in front of me waiting to get in. Looking at it I cannot tell if its the new TT or the older 6.3NA. I look at the license plate holder and see AMS Performance!! I'm thinking it has to be the TT and modded at that!! Well, I think to myself there is no way I have a chance against him, but I'll give it a shot
. When I pull in to park and wait for track to open, sure nuff 63TT!! I talk to the guys from AMS and it's modded with bigger turbos, downpipe, tune. Something like 750whp!!! I thought I will get beat for sure, but it'll be fun anyway!! I just got my tune sorted out by Aleks at Logic Lab made 520whp/606tq with nice flat AFR's at 11.5-11.6. Last time out before the new tune went 11.46@120.5. Also have new from shardul Braille lightweight battery in the trunk 15lbs compared to 60lbs. It barely starts the car, and almost positive it would not start it two times in a row!!! Runnning MS109 fuel in the tank, temps about 48 degrees unsure of DA but had to be pretty low. We line up and I do a big smokey burnout, he does a smaller one. Pretty cold out so I figured I better warm em up good. Launch from the line and I take off in a flash 1.59 60ft, way ahead!! I cannot believe it, halfway down I looking in my rear view for him to zoom pass, but he doesn't seem to be gaining much if any ground on me!!! We cross the line with me still ahead, 11.18@392mph!!! What!!! Well the mph was not working correctly but ET was right. On my second run of the night in the lane with the working MPH my run was almost identical but a 124mph so I can assume that's about how fast I was going on this run. He came across at 11.48@125.85 with a 1.92 60ft. I know that I beat him at the line, and he had a few faster mph runs that night 127 was the fastest I saw. Still, I'm 100% satisfied with the run and excited for it to have been against such an unbeatable monster and won, true David and Goliath tonight fellows!! Well dont let me words speak for themselves..... Onto the video!!

Nice runs, I wonder what AMS car was doing since that is obviously not how fast the car is with it running slower than just a chipped one and with them running 10.7@135 previously with that car and I don't think it had down pipes at the time either. In that amazing weather you guys were in I would assume the car would have went under 10.5 easy at around 140.
You didn't happen to talk to them after the fact at all did you? I am wondering why they were running so "slow" doing some kind of testing or something.

We have made over 800whp on this setup but that night we were indeed on our low boost pump gas tune....certainly not 750whp as the trap speed clearly depicts. We are constantly trying to find ways to polish up our tune and while going out on the street is fun...it's not exactly safe. We prefer just to run up to the track and get some data collected while running down the strip. This was nothing more than a little test session for our internal use. It's ok to brag that you beat us though...you did after all LOL. We will make sure we turn up the wick next time we line up against you
Enjoy your car in good health sir!

I knew you guys have and could run much faster than that!! It was still very fun. You build some amazing cars over there and I have much respect for your work. Maybe when the price drops a whole bunch on the TT's I will pick one up, you guys would be one of the shops I would definitely consider getting her modded at.
