I would like to know as well, I was hoping to top ST in the coming months. I felt rolex was the car I would not be able to beat when it was sorted, but with the unfortunate demise of his car that only leaves ST....we will see, I am still breaking in my engine but I feel I have what i need to do it.

I forgot about you, how is your project coming, I feel you could really give me a run for your money. I prefer pump gas numbers it evens the playing field a little, I am interested to see what your car makes on pump. I was really not impressed by ST pump numbers and they really make me question how he got those "high octane" numbers. Numbers like the Lindsey ones with 23psi on pump gas are what make me smile.

if the list goeas back up I would like to see a different catagory for race and pump gas, more than differnt displacement. I don't think displacement makes a huge differnece for peak numbers.

Guys, search is your friend....
https://rennlist.com/forums/944-turbo-and-turbo-s-forum/218307-rennlist-top-10-hp-tq.html

Topping tool with more displacement isnt much of a goal IMO. TMS, also, please remember to put that brake heat shield back on, like I said in the other thread.

Its not like I have a V8 I have .3L on him, thats less than a can of soda. I think how much bigger my turbo is, is a bigger advantage. Oh and hes been at this way longer than I have, I have little expirience with this car, and a tune noware as good as his, ii don't even have pggy back yet, just a chip set. When I go stand alone, yes then maybe it will be like clubbing baby seals.

My project is coming along all to slowly
But the specs are more or less set for everything, now the custom work just has to be done...

We share the same view regarding fuel, I'm all about pump gas and I promise to do everything I can to give you good competition

the problem is that it does not fit with the T4 hot side and down pipe, the down pipe and hot side are Jet hot coated and the crossover pipe is Ti coated. What parts might get heat damage maybe I can shield them directly.

You will boil the fluid in the brake mastercylinder and lose your braking...

Don't belive me? watch 12 hours at the point!


P.S. The problem with having diffrent gas types list like "race and pump" is that there are so many diffrent forums of gas both pump and race.

No replacement for displacement. I've seen what that extra .3L can do first hand in dmoffitt's old car. Trust me, that .3L makes a difference. As for the heat shield, after any hard running you'll cook the brake fluid and have no brakes.

Since Machtig Turbo posted the lists and edited them, and since has been banned, aren't they dead in the water? Unless we get a mod to do the editing, we may need to start a new thread with additions and deletions. I like the idea of the list, but remember guys, you need to be a Rennlist Member to earn the spots!

Why not just some sort of simple webpage that someone updates, and use that. Would allow for dyno charts and such to be a permanent fixture in all their highres glory.

Ill see if I can make up some simply HTML page and put it on my server if everyone wants to go that route.

Make
Model
Year

I think a new one is a great idea, but have the only posts on the thread be a dyno graph and mod list/setting from each person on the list. Disputes and comments can be taken up in a linked thread from each persons post. The thread would be alot less cluttered with easy access to each persons dyno graph and data.
