Guest Guests Posted 06/06/07 10:03 AM Share Posted 06/06/07 10:03 AM Bill, 400 odd rwkw's is a sensational effort mate in anyone's book and in an auto, nothing really will ever touch it.Ever heard of the law of diminishing returns? Once you get up to a power level, you need a LOT more power to go faster and faster. To be quite honest, I would be lucky to pull away from you until we got up to a pretty silly speed like over 200km/hr where the extra power really does come into play.Think of it this way, most performance cars are pretty quick to 100km/h - a car length probably equates to .3-.5 second if not more and is really a hard way to judge a cars real potential. The 100-200km/hr sprint is more telling as that is when real power comes into play as the quick cars to 100 run into a proverbial wall after that. Really telling - do a 150 - 250km/hr run and then you will measure absolute multiple car lengths between them and I mean plenty of them. I have watch my speedo go from 150 - 250 like my tacho and it is the only time the car actually really gets traction and can use the power - a roll-on in 4th gear is just an experience to be felt, and then 5th, and then it just keeps pulling in 6th..........Mate, your car is a weapon and makes a fantastic street car. Any more power is wasted unless like me, all you care about is laughing to yourself how ridiculous it really is.......... Would a different set of ratios in the box aid with traction & acceleration at all, M/T are releasing a 305x35x18 next month so you should try and get a set. I have 3 set's on order alreaddy.Do you have a copy of your dyno sheet floating around, I'd like to compare it to a similar powered Boss engine.
