TT I hear that kind of carry on is fairly common over on Mykonos. Don't drop the soap.

Btw skand I missed the sunset after all if by only a few minutes. Too many tourists from fira clogging up the passageway at the end. Meanwhile wife is kicking back by the pool watching it all with no obstacle....thats where I'll be tomorrow.
Live and learn they say.

Looks like Fira.

Yep TT these guys are truly living in heaven over here with of course exception to the very hot months. All you need is a nose lift kit and you can move your car to any island on the ferry and have some serious fun. There are some seriously good turns (corners) over this way too.

I had a look at the APR website: they dynoed the torque from 632 to 698Lbs up to the fuel (91 or 100 octan),
If I'm right it means between 850 and 940Nm!!!

Astonishing!

Yes there is a big difference in power between 91 octane and 100 octane. There is a decent increase between 91 and 93 too. I feel bad for those who have no choice but to run 91.

Yes, but whatever is the fuel the torque value is enormous no?

Yes we thought this as extremely high as well, so I did some tests on my own and we laid down 688tq on 100 octane and exhaust.

688tq means approx 920Nm, still enormous, needs "mega" boost with stock VTGs!?

Are the internals still OK at this torque level?

Impressive for just a tune, and explaining Skandalis447's and Madsex343's times

Its not running as much boost as you think. They actually use less boost than just about every other tune out there. I think they are just running 1.2 bar or 1.3. The motor handles it just fine. The only thing that can't handle the power is the OEM Clutch unless your car has TIP.

Keep in mind our dyno numbers were done hot car in 90+ degrees.

We will probably do another dyno run next month as the temps drop.

On page 1 of this thread a "data" shows 1.4B until 5000rpm.
But Ok, must be a very fine tune.

So thats about what 15psi? most tuners are usually around 17-19psi. I think the sport chrono is 1.2 bar or 1.3 bar right?

I would take an hour for me to explain how they do it but basically they are able to get this much power from a combination of things. First they were able to gain access and learn how to control the VTG Turbos, combine that with advanced timing and fuel is how they reached their power numbers. Other than that I can't go into much futher detail as fars timing numbers and how much fuel and etc but I can say that the software is no joke and 100% legit
