I don’t think he’ll mind me sharing… Richi was kind enough to reach out to me in advance of listing his blower… I will not be purchasing the blower from him even though the price was/is very fair. I’m going in a different direction with the car… I’ll leave it at that for now… Needless to say I’m very excited about some things and we’ll see how they play out in the spring…
So 12 pages into this we have no answer to “what is the true delta”? Saki thinks it’s negative. Nobody wants to dyno it before/after because measuring is stupid. So we have a bunch of WAG 1/4 mile runs under dramatically different conditions and we’re using that as rationalization that a Stage 2 could be faster.
034 has designed a pretty bad ass intake module with some heat shielding around it. I have to pass California smog test in March, then I’m probably going to get it. It’s pre-production. They showed me at Thunderhill last weekend on their test B8.
Tried to ping zcd on his move from b8 to c7 s6. What are your though on the car. Pros and cons, and any other alternatives looking back? Anything you love or hate about it?
Was sharing the track this weekend with some very fast drivers in APR tuned B8 cars. One of them ended up being the TVS1720 blower and APR stage 3. He was running fast as hell. Both cars were able to pull away from me on the main straight, but I caught them both multiple times.
they can’t pull away from well sorted stage 2 cars, as we’ve seen in multiple videos. All around that unicorn should be extinct soon. So should anyone who promoted or sold it.
Yeah I would put the stage 2 car and this one at a similar to identical clip on the straight line speed. I think the next step is to “ultracharge” it to unlock the higher power. I don’t really know what the means but it is some kind of special intake.
