Well I have about 1,500 miles on my motor, and she is running like a dream. My kills so far are not much to brag about but they are getting better as I hunt down more cars. Keep in mind that my X stock form is a 16.6 1320 and about 8secs to 60.
Im still data logging and adjusting timing etc. My tune is not optimal yet and im waiting for my meth/water spray. Where I live we get bad pump gas and its HOT here.
First kills while just at 5psi and 1 degree of timing:
2004 BMW X5 3.0:
Walked him from a dead stop, went through first and second and had about 5 car lenths on him.
1998 AUDI A6 QUATRO TIP TRONIC:
We did a 1st gear blast. He called me out (a friend). I INSTANLTY took a full car length on him and kept pulling about a car every 2 second running out 2nd gear. Smoked him. He couldnt believe it.
2005 NISSAN ARMADA 5.6:
I was minding my own business, after a light turned green I was cruising and as I got into second I noticed he was getting on the gas... I started to put my foot down to see if this was a go... stayed side by side by him and I could hear his car winding up... he was on the gas... so I floored it still in second and I blasted about 1 1/2 cars ahead and just let off the gas as she changed to 3rd. He then flew by and kept going.
I know these dont seem like big kills to all you monsters out there. But apples to apples if my 4.6L X was totally stock I might have lost all these three races. This is all in 5psi with a HORRIBLE tune.
I have no dynos here, nor a 1/4 track with a laser. So I can just guestimate what im running. And comparing to my kills im getting an idea.
Now the kills are getting a little more interesting.
Im currently running 9psi, and about 8 degrees of timing. My MAF is pegging at only 5,200... motor still has a lot more.
Today I was driving down the street and in my rear view I see a bike racing a brand new Z4. Guess what? Yes the Z4 is now on my ass :-D
2006 BMW Z4:
Pulls up on my butt... I had a car in front of me... so I change lanes to the right... The Z4 follows me on my arsh. I said ok lets make sure I dont jump him and we at least get a fair race... I get on the gas just to make sure he wants to play... he is on me so deep I could not see his hood... I give it more gas and hes in the same position just pushing me to race. I floor it, my baby down shifts.... then all I can see in my rear view mirror is a little Z4 getting farther and farther away. When I got on it she downshifted to 3rd and I kept pulling to about 5,100 rpms, I had already had pulled about 4 cars on him and the gap was just getting bigger and bigger. He then zoomed by and I just cruised. I said.... well I guess that was cute, still probably not to good of a kill. So me anxiously wondering what those cars do, I grab my blackberry and Google the Z4. Appanently it does 0-60 in 5.4 secs and 1320 in 14.2. And I killed him from like 60-80. Now im getting more of an idea of what my X is capable of. I can say this Z4 was not even a challange in my weighed down street trim at about 4,800pnds on 20's.
About 30 minutes later I see a brand new Boxter... but it was a no go. Ill keep posting my kills here as they get better and better. Once my tune in dialed and I fix my MAF problem im challanging my bro's 2001 Carrera 996. That should be interesting...
