I still trying the 60-130 run,just found the vacuum lane losing from the FPR,will get it reconnect next week and make a proper 60-130 run to provide the EVT700 power.The best time I had is 7.52 secs on a 4% incline road.

So this is pretty much what evt700 is.Remember I have 2 extra beyond the EVT700 package.So you guys have some probable ideas.
Why did you use Protomotive's modified VTG turbos instead of EVOMS? Are the specs the same? Wondering if this is why you're having problems.

Most US tuners say it is safe to bolt on 700hp before you need to do internal modification with is not much different than 9FF. There are some exceptions to this rule among US tuners I realize.

From the 9FF website:
http://9ff.de/_downloads/artikel/9ff_gt2_670_boldon.pdf

9ff do not have a good reputation in Europe - they like their marketing tho' but many times there cars break down and embarrassingly when they arrive for one of the many magazine articles they do. Having said that they certainly and almost uniquely in Europe aim for the mega hp numbers - It is by limiting the torque to 820NM that 9ff hope to keep the rods true, this seems to be the limit for Euro use

I didnt purchase everything 1 time,it a slowly built up...proto offered better price for the upgrade VTGs so I got upgraded turbos from them,and they claiming they did modification in both compresor wheel and exhaust wheels...

So if we take 60-160mph through the gears:
9ff 600hp = 17s
9ff 730hp = 13.6s
EVO 727hp = 16.2s

Not on this topic but I had a new "tuning module" put on my GT2 today alongside the aerospace intercoolers. 200 cell cats and race headers.

During testing we ran a 60-160mph which took 13.45s (in 27degC heat 2 passengers)
This was starting in 3rd so not directly comparable to the ones in the magazine test but interesting all the same...... (60-130 was 7.4s)

Have to put a caveat in here.....it seems that this "tuning box" which I am trialing is giving the engine over 600hp.... just done some more testing and the car seems significantly faster than the Manthey 600hp car tested eg 80kph-200kph Manthey car took 8.1s mine is taking 7.3s !
