Thread went savage fast lol. What clutch are you using and how has it help up/how have you liked it?
New WR: 938whp and 861 wtq @ 35 psi
- Thread starter doublespaces
- Start date
spec/motiv twin , it has held up fine .I am looking into other options.
I mean the guy kind of deserves it. He is being such a cocky POS. Yes, this could have been done ANYTIME in the past 2 years with N20, literally ANYTIME. Justin, you knowl if we wanted that 1000WHP with N20, we could have had it easy. The car was making a consistent 850 boost only, throw a 150 shot on it, do couple glory pulls, then we claim the record, and celebrate. No sir, that is not how people who value the record do things. We will take the record boost only, then, and only then will we claim anything. Even once we do, its a number, we made MANY changes to the car to go FAST, not to make power standing still. Now if we can get this damn car to cooperate, we would be done already. Either way, I said it in my first post, this is not impressive with N20 literally at all. But different strokes....
Tony lets end this civilized because I can tell you need attention/publicity to try and sell some more record breaking turbos . I am not cocky I just dislike people who look for faults instead of the positives in things . This has no effect on you because you could easily make more than 939 so why its an issue for you only you know. Put fairy dust for all I care I will congratulate your number because it shows the potential of what the motor is capable of. My car is not done as Andy told you there is still much to be done. I had nothing to do with the original post so you need to hop off. I look forward to you surpassing 939 "ANYTIME". I agree that many changes will be needed to make the car go fast as it is still in its infancy stages there is much to be sorted.
I do hope that the post above is your last on this topic.
Nitrous or not you'd be remembered for having the first 1000whp n54. I say do it for bragging rights and publicity.
Plus, Tony seems to be the only person around here that can post a full god damn dyno sheet! Lol
I couldn't agree more , why not do it ? that is my point ,think about the following , the sales you would get.
Care to explain how Donnie has RPM build him a transmission that has issues and it's an issue "with that ADE 4L80 kit"?
All I know is the trans lasted a pull and died, and he's been trying to sort it since. Not pointing fingers but it's been hugely disappointing and held up some development items. It was supposed to be a bulletproof setup once installed.

Lol. You're kidding right?
He bought a wrecking yard transmission which I put a shift kit in... That's not "bulletproof"
Then he did not setup the TCC in the you controller (that he provided), drove to the track with 240+*f temps and went down the strip at 260+*f (knowingly) and it my fault?
His mechanic even told me the fluid looked a little burnt afterwards, but still was working and he drove it around after.
"The kit" works great. What does my "kit" have to do with the new built trans by RPM not working?
Only "disappointing" thing is "car guys" not knowing shit about cars.
This is exactly why I do not post and I'm sure why others do not as well, about their high power builds. It's his build, he can do what he wants. It's not like he said it was the world record, that was Doublespace.
And please, about this buying parts from vendors, shut the f**k up. If someone is going to do the R&D for me and make a part, this is faster and cheaper me and everyone else.
Good job on the build so far too

If this is the case sounds like a bum deal all around, but if its just the trans, you can have a 4L at your door in like 24 hours from any number of places, he took the car to the strip months ago. I would work with him to get this done, as it can only help you sell more kits.
As for the car in this thread, I want to be clear. My comments do not represent, the tuner, the hard parts used, or the hardware manufacturers involved. Simply the way this was handled. Thrown out as a record than to be revealed it was NOS, then the guy is saying he did what NO ONE could do in 5 years. I am glad Terry stepped up, and said what I wanted to, then did. This could have been done by 4-5 vendors with N20, at just about any time in the past 2 years, it wasn't because we care about boost only, and actual fast cars, not dyno queens.
I don't get why someone's stuff gets posted by someone else. It seems to me that if the dude wanted to post his stuff on a thread, then he would post it. He would be the OP, and he'd post it how he wants to represent it. I know I wouldn't want someone posting stuff about what I'm doing, but that's just me.
I also think, when someone posts "New WR", one is basically posting a bullseye on the WR's back. If I was claiming something, I would post with all the accepted information, transparency and such. This thread, which was not started by the car owner, kind of left the car owner holding the bag. It seems to be that he should not be defending the content that was originally posted - the OP should, as he chose to post it as it was - subject and body, as written.
Maybe I have it all wrong, but that's how it seems from what I read.

coulda, woulda, shoulda.
could have done it is not nearly is the same league as actually doing it, IMO
Merc has the highest total WHP out of an N54, ever.
doesn't matter that is has nitrouts, what size turbo, what trans, what motor build, what boost, etc... all those factors are cool interesting information and nice to know and discuss, but they are secondary to the fact he made the most WHP from an N54 in the world. call it a dyno queen or whatever you want but he did it. he made the most whp out of everyone right now.
@Tony@VargasTurboTech If you are so butt hurt about his dyno number, then simply go for the record on your own. build a dyno queen car and take down his record.
especially because anyone "could have" done it and its just "turning the wrench and putting parts on the car" you make it seem like it would be so easy for you to make this kind of power, so lets see it. either put your money where your mouth is and show us a dyno queen going for this power; or stick to your 1/2 records and STFU in a world record thread for highest WHP which is precisely what this thread is...

Maybe I heard some facts wrong and there are two sides to every story. As I said not pointing fingers on it, just stating a fact, that it has been disappointing so far. Couple that with no other reviews of the kit in the last year and it makes me wonder. I'd be a potential customer for a good working 4L80E N54 kit and his 135i is one of our single turbo development cars so needless to say I'd like the car running properly ASAP.
I fixed your post for you, there is no shoulda, or woulda. Just coulda, and had no interest in doing so. This is a 800WHP car on a 125 shot. I will say it a 3rd time, not impressive in the slightest, 800WHP N54's are not hard to come by...
Congrats on the new record. @WedgePerformance always has the strongest cars, happiest customers and best attitude. Why anyone would go anywhere else is dumbfounding. My MMP build is going to together now. Guess who's tuning it?
