I think it's just a supercharged V6 though I thought I saw a V8 symbol? Left work yesterday heading home with the A/C on. Taking a left onto a lonely road and this Mercedes jumps all over my *** end through the turn. I remained calm and went around the one car in the way. After clearing the same car he jumps on it and pulls up on me at speed. I nailed it (3rd) gear and pulled him nicely though really only a couple cars. Hell he hung tight!

Next right onto another wide road and he whips up on me again. This time it's a 2nd gear roll PLUS my A/C was off and I dialed in another pound of boost on the MBC Not very close this time so he lets off pretty quick to save face.

He pulls up at the next light and that's when I see all the AMG badging and a killer set of wheels. He rolled down his window (more than most of them do) and seemed confused and shocked. "uh...that things quick?" he exclaims as if asking a question. BTW, I'm guessing he was NOT stock as again the car hung pretty tight on the third gear roll.

Now is when it got funny...he then stated "well I have a leak in my intercooler" and then hangs a right. LOL. Come on buddy...take the loss like a man.

lmao, my car isn't quick enough to take chances like that. l0l

lart951

have you ever dynoed your car?

racerxrick

yes...had a rich condition down low at the time (vacuum leaks) and recorded 299.8rwhp@14.7 pounds boost.

Since then have repaired vacuum leaks, added 3" catback and dialed a couple more pounds boost

lart951

so how much boost are you running now?

racerxrick

typically 17...was at 16 for the first run yesterday (was a hot afternoon and hadn't adjusted it).

lart951

I see, so only 3 psi more, I'll bet the rest of the power it's made out of the driver's enthusiasm. The c32 has only 349 Hp and 339tq and probably weights 3500lbs so that's not really a kill, technically I would say damn your car is really slow.

C32's are quick. Even a stock C32's. Do a google search

Jeremy, nice to see you in renn, where are the old guys hanging around?

Jeremy Himsel

Shuffle board tournaments.

I've been busy playing with my chevy and at work so I don't spend too much time here anymore.....it takes away from my **** time.

lart951

Well, I found me a v8 chevy, now I know what you guys who own v8 mean by torque and power, I bet my v8 is way faster than a 928 not only in a straight line but in the twistiest, I am sure it will smoke the hell out a gts. I have it for sale on ebay

But Luis....
You said for sure the 928 GTS will get you down low, but you'll come and pass him up top and in the twisties, right?

lart951

Yeah, easily in the twistiest and top end speed. The 928 gts can't hold a candle to my chevy
