Just another example on whats clearly wrong with the B5 S4 community. Others get bashed for achieving miles more then this while weighing 3-400lbs more but this run gets praised ???
Basically it seems half the engine bay needs to be relocated, cost more money to achieve overall less performance then PJK04s. I would of never made the above statement if this statement wasn’t made sorry “Potentially more overall effcient than twins” but has half the TQ/power curve of K04 turbos ???
I believe the 60ft was 1.75 which is awesome, doesn’t get much better but claims are that the car rolled out/not driven hard, video shows all out run. I believe 1.75 60ft was better than the jhm run where they went 10.8.
Car has been under tuning all summer, racing seats & whatever else as the video shows, 110 Octane & every excuse one can possible have to why we ran 12ss all day but managed one 11.85 pass @ 118mph. Don’t no how bald tires & bad 3/4 syncros are gonna add much mph. I wouldn’t call this a base file, I’m sure the car was being tuned/prepped between each run & if the car was so crippled why 15 runs
Here’s the post from AZ

Car ran an 11.85 @ 118.4mph.
This was the first time this car has ever set foot on the drag strip, and our goal was basic testing, shakedown, and a general starting point. This is my daily driver with 150k miles on the car and transmission (bad 1/2 and 3/4 collars), and we didn’t want to break anything yet. After 15 back to back runs over the course of a couple hours with only one cool down session, and air temps of 95-100 degrees, there wasn’t a single hiccup or issue. We only started to launch the car towards the later part of the session, and we are happy with the overall performance with all things considered.
21psi on the 6262 turbo, .64 AR turbine housing, Journal Bearing CHRA, 91oct tune with 110oct race gas in the tank. Worn street tires, sticky transmission, and not a single adjustment made to tire pressure or suspension settings or anything. The car also has a stock center diff for those who asked me via PM.
As a basic starting point for future times, 11.8 is good in our books and we know that will show people we are both serious about testing, and give a peak at the potential performance once we get things dialed.
Since the test car is my daily driver and something I drive to and from work everyday, we felt this was also a great illustration of something that a lot of people could easily do right off the street with our kit, and without any big worry of breaking anything. The next time we head out, we will be testing and comparing more boost, a 110oct tune, more aggressive launches, a ball bearing center section, and maybe even a rebuilt transmission (this would knock a half second right there!). The ball bearing CHRA should help considerably with recovery time between shifts!
A fully maximized setup, even with the log manifolds, will be extremely competitive with a similar twin turbo setup, with the potential to surpass both the power and efficiency of a twin turbo. ??? Absolute factless B.S Statement
