No surprise the tuned turbo takes it, very strong. Just goes to show how big a difference an ecu tune makes on that car. Dodging trucks while racing isn't the safest though...
yea man, that tune was what it needed.
saw this on 6speed yesterday. That turbo is quick. I see they mention the HP difference but where is the tq figures? Torque is what won the race.
Uh... they are a function of one another. It's the hp increase up top, from the added torque x revs, which won the race.Quote:

With the tune it gains more torque.Quote:

Wherever it gains torque, it gains horsepower.Quote:

Revs multiply torque, that is why horsepower wins you these types of races. You are correct to say torque was increased, as it had to be to increase HP, but this isn't a low end torque race.
That's your porsche ? nice runs !
i'm currently shopping for a used one with low miles , i love that car nothing puts down the power like a porsche everything is right there the DT loss is minimal ....
OMG, someone considering putting an ESS SC'd car up for sale... something must be horribly wrong.Quote:

Great runs and videos! I got a chuckle out of the guy flashing his highbeams in the last video.Quote:
