Turbo CL-S Video

I wanted to get a video of the potential of the Turbo system on a CL-S. For this purpose, Clean B was kind enough to let me run him from 30mph to 110mph. This wasn't a race to show who wins or loses... rather a demonstration of the possible power gains at moderate boost levels.

Conditions:
Clean B's setup is an '01 CL-S (auto) with AEM CAI. The cameraman was his passenger. I suppose this negates any gains of the CAI.
My Setup is running with open Exhaust. Car was hitting about 5.9-6.0psi w/o back-pressure.

Temperature was a nice 70-71F @ sea level
Rolling Start at 25-30mph
I believe Clean B's car started off in 1st gear and I started off in 2nd gear
We both floor it (WOT) at the count and I braked at 110mph.

I have requested Scalbert to host the video... so it should be up in the morning if all goes well.

For all you Law Enforcement types... this is all fictional

It was great meeting all you guys. Power3dfx and his buddy along with Clean B and his buddy... I am not mentioning names for privacy.

Oh yeah, the GS400 you see on the left-side is Power3dfx... not some startled person parked in the middle of the street!

Man, if only I had a six speed I would be building my custom turbo set up now!! I think that I will just go ahead and build it and get down on my hands and knees and pray that my tranny doesn't die.

Awesome car man!

Yup, cutout was open - I get a few 0.x psi more that way. The video shows how much of a difference a turbo can make... the car tends to haul!

Power3dfx's car is in the dealership... we'll get some runs later on. I have some free time these few nights, so I wanted to get this done.
