The look on that guys face must have been priceless.
It's pretty interesting that:
1) With a simple spring swap out, you can get to 8psi
2) Run your gas down low and throw in one of those 5 gallon containers of high octane
3) Hook up your laptop and add back in some advance
you probably would have left him.

Torque was 360.x ft-lbs
This is my 2nd race with a 911TT... the first one (I assume) was a stock one with the X50 package which I pulled on slightly in 4th gear. This 911TT was obviously much quicker. I have also raced a 360 Modena which I destroyed and an E55 AMG which was pretty much an even race. Note that all these are on 91-octane with my timing retarded about 5 degrees at 6psi.
Dyno #'s can be 'lame' or whatever... I don't really care. The car is quick, that's all I need to know

I'd love for you to prove this wrong - it'd be really impressive. I'm sure we'd all love to see your track slip showing a CLS can actually run low 12's w/ the "big dogs".

His previous set up made 70 wheel horsepower less and ran 12.9 @111 on street tires.
EDIT: Also, I make approx. 120 whp less than him and I trapped at 108. You are underestimating these cars, DRASTICALLY
And I highly doubt the loss on a roller dyno vs. the axle dyno is 70 whp. That's nearly 20%. He stated that the dyno is calibrated very well and usually is within 11 whp of a dynojet.

With optimal road, weather and elevation w/ that power and that weight, the best your car would run is high 12's low 13's @ 105-107mph.
The difference between a Dynapack and a Dynojet is not as you alluded. It may be about 3% - 5% depending on various factors. You are suggesting an engine dyno difference which is not the case here. Him making 419 WHP on a Dynapack may equate for about 400 WHP on a Dynojet. Had he made 419 crank HP, that would translate to about 350 WHP on a Dynojet; about what you mentioned. It appears you are mistaken about what type of dyno was performed.
As another example, I made 369 WHP with my SC/IC CL-S6. Granted, it probably would have taken his last turbo set up but not this one. And I was running about 1.5 PSI more boost.

Well... I already hit 12.9 @ 111.87 mph after making 347 whp on the SAME dyno... so 74 whp extra is quite a bit!! It's good to be skeptical... I doubt the car will hit 11's... even if it traps 120+mph, there's a lot more to running 11's than just raw hp.

If that 911TT is trapping in the 120+ range, he should be pulling deep into the 11's.....and if you're hanging w/ him I'd assume your 12.xx means very low 12's and that your 11X. mph is 119. I'm not trying to flame - I'm just trying to put all of this together......I mean it's not everyday you see/hear of a CLS taking out a 911TT. Any videos of the dyno pull or the low 12 run?
Why are you still going by allmotor....isn't that an oxymoron?

I didn't take a video of the dyno... but all of the data was published in Turbo Mag (Dec issue), so take a look.

So if 12.9 is an honest #, the 70hp increase should get you into the low to mid 12's... but that 70hp will also make it tougher to launch. Sorry for being so skeptical.

You might be taling about 996TTx50, if it's true here's his mods:
Performance Mods: Ultimate Motorworks Stage V Zero Clearance turbos, ceramic coated, ported and polished, with custom wastegates * RUF exhaust * Custom ported/polished/ceramic coated headers * GIAC custom programming with 1.3 bar / 19 lbs. boost (programmed for 100 octane) * Gemballa sport air intake system and air inlet distributor * GT2 intercoolers * Aquamist methanol/water injection system (boost actuated direct spray into the intake) * Aquamist methanol/water intercooler sprays (boost and manually actuated) * La Bree Motorsport custom racing pipes * Bailey diverter valves * K&N air filter * Techart coilovers * Techart sway bars (front and back) * Cargraphic alloy strut tower bar * Brembo 14in / 380mm Evolution brakes * Performance Friction Carbon Metallic brake pads * HRE 540R wheels (11.5 rear and 8.5 front) * Michelin Pilot Sport Cups (315 rear) * 2004 spark plugs
Non-Performance Mods: SmarTire tire pressure monitoring * AEM wideband air fuel gauge * K40 radar detector and laser diffuser * RUF stainless steel pedals * Carbon fiber steering wheel, shift knob and parking brake * Silver Porsche crest * Paris Audio garage door opener * Bumper plugs * Clear side markers * Ash tray delete console * 35% tinted windows
He posts at SVTperformance, and he believes he traps north of 130 mph. He regulary takes out Lambos, highly modded cobras...etc, don't know how you kept up with that beast, but non the less great race.
Is this what it looked like??

The 911TT w/ the mods you mentioned, in my estimation, should've reeled you in a lot faster, but frankly, I'm not all that surprised either. When I was in your car, the temp was 85+ ... and judging by how cold it's been in the Valley lately, I'm sure your car is putting out an incredible amount of power.
Stability-wise though, how was the match up against the 911TT w/ huge wing, etc.? When do you think he would've let off, if at all? Also, was this on the 101 or on Valley Circle? Cause 130 mph on a surface road is like whoa

No reason why everyone should take every story or claim as 100% truth.......after all the explanation of this forum used to be "fiction or non-fiction - beat an M5....yeah sure you did".
Plus, Allmotor hasn't tracked his new setup yet... so even he doesn't know what it can run. You can speculate all you want, but the fact is it hasn't been tested yet. I personally think that he can beat his old time of 12.9 now... but by how much?? I have no idea, and we won't know for sure until the next video

I think it's time to put our $$$ where our BS is . . . :P
The idea is to place odds on Allmotors times with his new set up.
Say for example we could have a range from 11.5 to 12.99 . . . closest to the pin wins . . bragging rights
And those that guess over 12.99 get to
I'd guess based on his previous set up running 12.9s I say he's good for 12.45 with no more mods to the suspension . . . 11.9s with.

but i am just messing w/ you. you are being fairly courteous.
ps, my car dynod 301 whp and ran a 13.25 @ 105.7 w/ 75 shot on a 80 degree day.

I would have to agree with this "logic"
How does FWD affect high speed rolls? I know AWD typically lose to RWD at high speeds given cars have same "configs" in terms of power to the wheel.
Mrsteve, bunch of us AMG guys will rent out Capitol again in January...I should be in the 11's then with the cold weather...hopefully

How long in the year do they stay open? I wanna go tomorrow night but their schedule on their site only goes through the end of November.
EDIT: Hopefully i'll be close to a 12.9 @ 110 MPH by January.

Not if you're "almost tying" worked Porsches.!!!! Running a couple modded cobras will give you a good baseline though, especially from a dig because "most" of us know exactly how our cars run (60 ft, trap speed, ET) so you can get a good feel for how your car does in comparison...

I was just thinking...
...the exact same thing. 996TTx50 will give you a run... I only hear him wanting to try. I think he knocked out a 600/600 '03 Cobra, so running him will probably be some humble pie for you. =) But that is one *sweet* car... <drool>
