Uh dude, I am pretty sure he is talking about a real track, as in a road course. Not a 1/4 mile stretch of asphalt.

Your assertions are both misleading and false
Al, Al, Al....

I've tried to keep this discourse civil and factual, but yet again, you're taking it entirely too personal and resorting to insults because I have you on the defensive. Good ol' Al.

Misleading, in this case, would be posting up dyno charts 6 months apart and claiming that one product is garbage just because you personally can't resell it. I'm only posting up factual information backed by research and data. Feel free to check my sources and even come up with your own. I welcome it.

Disprove me and I'll go back from whence I came. Part of the reason why you're getting so bent out of shape is because you know I'm right and can't prove otherwise.

Best regards,

I'm not really sure it matters any more. You've lost credibility already. You as a former lawyer should have known better.

What some people fail to see here is the fact that the WR is a direct competitor for the 20g. Inevitably some tuners will support the WR, some will not. You can draw your own conclusions from there.

It wasn't clear when he said it. 1.2s on a road course would make much more sense. I do both, but without additional information, I assume the drag strip first, since that's what we always use for comparisons between turbos.

It's about time someone said this I love how these guys act like they want another companies product to work well, when they are in direct competition with each other. Most of us can see through the fog, as past posts have an underlying theme directed at products and people in the business. It's like me wanting the Redsox or Yankees to win the World Series, just because they are in the American League. NOT HAPPENING EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Indians fan 4 life, even when they suck ***!
So stop the bashing of customers/vendors and give us some real results.

What would be really great to see is the EVO with the WR that was tuned and dyno'ed at Switzer get dynoed at Bushur or Pruven. If the results are repeatable or at least close (considering the differences in dynos) then it would put all of this to rest.

Don't you all agree?

Now i need to work on my brakes... I'll be in the 1'22's soon!

If anyone has ever run MSR, they should know that 1'23.8 is fast!

My car is the ultimate response machine!

2.3l with the FPWR! I get full boost at 2,300rpm... This is a killer set up for street and track! I love it!

COmpare to the TME, thcar spools quicker and now I hold boost to 7,800rpm...

I would love for a local tuner to set up a EVO day at MSR!!!!!

thanks

Thank you! I have to put on boots to wade through the BS, bashing and WORTHLESS uncorrected dyno sheet posts every time I visit this forum. It is refreshing to have you and a handful of others chime in from time to time Shiv!
