My 89

11.9 sec quarter in a 2500lb car with 500whp? That is rather laughable.

I didnt come here to be a dick, but your comment is rather laughable and shows what you know. If you know anything about drag racing you would have known that mph is what you look at when you consider hp not the et. the et is what the driver was able to do, and since I am not a drag racer and that was my first pass down the quarter in a front wheel drive car I dont think its so bad. Also before you quote numbers you should have your info straight, the car weighed in at 2800 pounds not 2500. BTW if you look at the slip it shows that the car came through the trap at 127mph which if you do the math is good for a mid to high 10.

I honestly dont know what got your panties all in a bunch that made you feel like you needed to come and crap in my thread, didnt anyone ever teach you if you have nothing good to say you should say nothing at all? I am all for constructive critisizm but I hate it when people comment just to be a dick.

With that said if I took your comment the wrong way I apologize...lol

[quote=Detlman;1493630]As requested, pic of the 500whp mini, I attached a dyno chart too.



My name is Michael Paukert I live a few blocks from you on wiseburn street. I know Heather. Bimmerfest is this weekend on saturday. all day in sb polo fields.:D

I remember seeing that Mini in Eurotuner, lol. BTW hope the work goes well on the 89.

[Detlman]

Funny, small world! Heather does know you.

Yeah my car was in eurotuner and then we did the gp with it, that didnt turn out so good though :) We came in second on the dyno to a gti, then drag day we had to run some crappy falken tires and there was no traction at all so we didnt do well and actually dropped a valve that day which stopped us from competing at streets the next day, oh well :) It was fun though.

I have made a few changes and the car actually makes more power than before, in that chart we were running 34psi and a 100 shot to get 513, after a few changes we are running 22psi and making 394whp no n20 on pump gas. I think when we tune it with 116 we should make 460 on boost and 560 with the 100 shot ;) I usually drive the car with 16psi which makes just over 300whp.

That does look nice that low

Are you the guy who owns fireballed? My mom did some legal work for you guys a while back.

[Danny]

Is the Mini your wife's?

[Detlman]

Well, kinda I was but a pawn in the fraud that was fireball tim. I hope your mom got paid, cuz tim sure likes to use people then discard them like trash. I was never a partner or anything like that thankfully! fireballed owes me a TON OF MONEY! And honestly a car that we built.
