I can make a section if you wish.
Lol. Back when the name was created AMD had beat Intel for the race to 1ghz! I was and still am a fan of AMD however I now run all Macs with intel i7 processors.
We’re both located in Albany, NY.
Yes, my 200 was the one on jalopnik.
The video was created using two of my DSLR’s. Canon 5dmkii with a 35L was used for the side angle and the rear shot was a Canon EOS 7D with and 85L lens.
Probably unnecessary if I’m the only poster and viewer. I’ll just share it in the B5 section. Lol. Thank you for offering though.
So who here is going to beat or match JHM 10sec 1/4 time with RS6-R?
Heck, I would like to see any of the following from a RS6-R car;
- WHP Numbers
- FATS Numbers
- Acceleration Graphs
- 60-130 times.
I sure as hell am not with my simple turbo swap on a stock motor.
I do plan on making it to track for my first pass ever. Should be a humbling experience.
I posted my initial logs/data over on az. I’ll try and link it here…
Jhm I think will beat their 10.8 time.
I wouldn’t hold my breath on the last four things if I were you.
I’ll have all this information for you as soon as my car is finished. I don’t feel any need to hide the results. If the product turns out to be unimpressive it’s not like its my fault.
Lol the product already works. Not sure anyone needs proof of anything.
The reason he wants to see those results in particular is so he can say ‘ha! I’m better so I win!’
Him and his blown up motor.
Actually that would be mean, and I am not a mean person.
I would like to see a JHM builds performance statistics, realistically they are very close to the chest on ANY performance stats.
Can’t wait to see your results Zero.
PS: Saki I know my motor has a crack, you don’t have to keep reminding me. But since you are; it must mean I suck or my car sucks or something.
No it just means that you’re missing the big picture. If you’re destroying the car in pursuit of records that it is hard to get other people to care about, maybe you should step back and think about it.
As for jhm cars keeping performance close to their chest, explain that. They’re literally the only b5 2.7t tuner who take their cars to the quarter mile and show performance testing. The other tuners sell you a dyno sheet, then heap the testing onto their customers. Jhm go to the dragstrip, the standard acceleration test for every platform including the b5
They do it behind the scenes, on their own cars, before releasing a product. I think that’s pretty cool.
You want them to endorse:
logs (a measuring stick that can be faked)
dynos (a measuring stick that can be faked)
60-130 (a measuring stick that hides weaknesses)
They instead want everyone to realise that if they start endorsing the dyno or logs as ‘proof’, it opens the door to bullshit artists and scammers. If they endorse 60-130 on its own without a 1/4 mile to back it up, they are opening the door for cars that are full of warts to be considered ‘proven’.
i have something in the works with Jason right now. more infor when i get the product in my hands. once all on and together, better believe i will be testing it at the track!!!
^^^pinoy is a great example. Lots of people like to say ‘JHM kills their own shop cars in order to go this fast’. KillerS4 has used that as an excuse for JHM being so much quicker than him in the quarter mile.
But is that an accurate thing to say? I would certainly agree that Dan’s K03 record (12.2 just like KillerS4 lol) was made at the expense of his K03 turbos. However there have been other K03 cars within a whisper of that record, driven by customers.
The B6/7 S4 records JHM set were all matched or beaten by their customers.
The RS4 records JHM set were all matched or beaten by their customers.
The K04 B5 record JHM set was not matched by anyone, however pinoyS4’s car got pretty close.
The latest RS6r 10.8 @ 130 record they set will surely be matched or even beaten by a customer. I have no doubt about it. None of their customers with built motors have taken the RS6r to the strip yet. We have however seen one RS6r customer driven car. It went on stock motor, on a pump gas file, and ran 11.7 @ 125. With maybe a better launch (it as a 1.8 60’ time) and better DA, that car could certainly see 11.5. That’s stock motor…
They don’t brew up crazy setups and then sell something different to the public. if someone with a well sorted car with a built motor and RS6r turbos and good supporting mods goes to the dragstrip with density altitude at or near zero, I see no reason why with some good driving they can’t put down a 10.8-10.9 @ 130. If you’re not a great driver, and have that setup, I see no reason why you can’t go 11.0 @ 129-130.
Pump gas file with some octane added, which improved it, according to the v-box runs he had done previously. You would address this on other cars also. It was unleaded 100 and 93 oct if I am correct.
^^^it’s really irrelevant that he had some better octane in there. When you consider the timing map and the characteristics of a 91 file…the bottom line is that the car is held back like crazy. Throwing the 100 in to mix with the 93 just means he’s not as likely to pull as much timing and might run a little cooler. Not going to change the world.
You should really address what Count Vohn mentioned in the other thread. Since you like bringing stuff up. Why don’t you tell the forum what you advised Count Vohn when he was preparing a tune for Hunter’s car.
If I recall correctly you basically told him to neuter the car as much as possible, while keeping it fun. This was to keep the motor safe. Yes?
It was tuned on 93. I did say that on the other forum. I am simply staying you mention meth, you should mention racegas. Even on a warm day racegas can help a car on a pump file.
Something must have happened. It put my message in the quote of CV, I addressed that nor have I ever denied hunters is a tune for safety and avoiding the torque spike. It still is all there past the spike, it’s only a dog on spool. Up top, from what I’ve seen on vag com is pretty normal timing and AFR for a 93 file.
-
tuned on 93, or tuned FOR 93? The car was tuned FOR 91. Who cares what was in the tank when it was logged. It is a neutered tune with late spool and modest timing. It’s the equivalent of what they’d normally give someone on 91. To say ‘tuned on 93’ means you’re implying he threw everything he could at the car based on how it responded to 93. He didn’t.

Tweets, are you playing dumb to win an argument? You really think throwing a splash of race gas at the car when it’s running a pump gas file is the same as a car tuned FOR meth? All that will do is ensure you’re getting the most out of your pump gas file…but it’s not going to miraculously turn your parameters into those appropriate for race gas.
Let me help you out. Killer S4 and all the AMD/EPL superstars are tuned FOR meth. In otherwords, Meth is tuned as a fuel source. If that fuel source isn’t there (i.e. you run out of meth) it will grenade the motor when a piston melts, fuses to the block, and pulls the pins out of the rod. Or if your tuner knows what he’s doing, put it into limp to protect itself. They (those meth tuned cars) are running MASSIVE timing and boost levels, banking on meth+pump. They are running
The EPL/AMD meth cars aren’t running a file mapped for pump, then throwing some meth in for added cooling. They are tuned FOR meth. This is DRAMATICALLY different. The timing maps of a pump gas tuned car vs. a meth car are night and day. The timing maps of a race gas TUNED car and a meth tuned car are very similar.
Don’t play games. We’re all smarter than that.
Damn, I didn’t know that. . . is that a stock block B5 record trap?
Don’t act like you know what the car was doing. on its current file where the tune has settled, hunters car pulls timing mid range to shift point (7k), I’ve seen it a few times on vag com, I don’t have ECUX that works if anyone can help me fix it I would be indebted. So, the racegas DID assist, shown by the Vbox times and gained timing, which is why it is safe to say, it was a pump gas file, with racegas. That simple Ian. Stop with the saki logic and know the facts. Why are you arguing with me. I never said it was tuned for racegas, I just said he had a half tank of it and it helped him. You can’t argue against me unless you KNOW otherwise, which you don’t. 2 reasons why you don’t.
- That’s what hunter told me, EG the truth
- You weren’t there.
Definitely the avant stock block record. The thing moves out, it’s very fun to drive.
What you are fighting me on is rediculous. And if you would have actually looked at my post you would have seen I didn’t avoid any of CVs questions, I really get frustrated when you try to paint me as a deceptive person. I have always been honest. That’s not fair for you to spin it like that
