You're conflating a few different concepts here that I am not going to attempt to untangle for you in this thread. You have words off of a screen, I have real world experience/data with multiple cars on multiple dyno types; none of which are directly influenced by gear ratio in the ways you've...

Bottonwillow was repaved a few years back so comparing it to pre-refresh times is problematic.

As you're probably aware there are several Dynojet's around CLT, so shouldn't be tough. I have access to one at my buddy's shop in Greensboro if you need an alternative option. Also 3SX/Performance Factory in Concord has an AWD SuperFlow and they're doing a dyno day on 8/10. My experience on...

Sorry, but it doesn't really work that way. Gearing/mechanical TQ multiplication doesn't influence dyno measurements as you've described. If the engine theoretically output the same TQ at the same RPM in say 1st gear as it did in 6th, the dyno would read nearly the same result. All the dyno...

A manual LS3 C6 is a 116-118MPH car out of the box, so considering the MKV hung with it it's not that disappointing (but it is). The tire spin means nothing; easy to do on an aggressive shift unless you're on a really good tire. I'm sure the C6 was stock aside from the drivermod otherwise it...

Titan 93 tune + downpipe = stock C6 base

:dance: :rofl:

:eek: Twilight Zone moment.. On a "Supra" specific site; user(s) don't know who Real St. Performance is... :doh:

After the initial heat cycles, once everything is up to operating temp you're good to drop the hammer. Break them in hard!

The C8 was definitely a mic drop moment for GM. That said, even though the base sticker is 59k that's with zero options and essentially a configuration that will never be on the showroom floor. As soon as a few option boxes are checked the MSRP will jump dramatically. Curious to hear your...

Wasting no time, nice! I saw you post on a few local FB pages. If I hadn't just gotten back into town I'd swing by to see it. Test n Tune at Rockingham this Saturday? :thumbsup:

That headifold garbage is purely for emissions and production/packaging and has no business in any legit performance/sports car; particularly one purported to be aftermarket-friendly. If the rumors are true then thankfully only the 2020MY will be hindered with that BS.

I have Grundy collector policies for both my Supra and my ZR1. They write limited/pleasure use policies and have a few more limitations/stipulations than mentioned. Namely they also require every licensed driver in the household to have an 'acceptable' (i.e., something of meaningful value)...

"12.0" vs. "12.5" based on what..? V-box, stop watch, counting one-one-thousand, two-one-thousand...? :dunno: One car was slightly quicker than the other, one stopped slightly ahead of the other. The rest of the "data" or rather lack thereof was a joke. A quarter mile comparo without out...

Ryan's been out the game for about the last decade. He sold the famous QS 6sp car (went overseas and recently made it's way back stateside) and built a RSP 6sp car from the ground up, ostensibly to take the Supra record and/or run 7's. About the time that car was finished and making test...

There will be new traditionally JDM players in the BMW tuning arena in order to stay relevant, i.e., HKS Pretty standard stuff here so far.

There is a ton of cargo storage in the last few generations of Corvette --- enough to comfortably fit 2 golf bags. (not my images) C7 coupe C6 vert

Incremental progress/improvements year over year will put downward pressure on each prior MY. Case in point, if the 2021 MY gets the B58D as purported here then the 2020's will take a big hit. If/when a manual is introduced..... I keep seeing comments about how the aftermarket will be...

I've never seen a 0-60 competition outside of a magazine or review video..
