I have kind of a weird ask. A few years ago I saw a car someone had a carbon fiber "seat pad", as I recall it, was actually in a Evora GT. My wife is 4 foot 8. and struggles any time i try to put her in a car with sport seats because the bolsters always hit her in the wrong place (trying to...

There's Dozens of us. Literally dozens. Appreciate the pictures lads, but it's pretty funny.

What does that mean though? My stock rev felt like 6600. compared to what?? I put a blindfold on you and you can tell how fast an engine is revving and know when you are cheated 200 rpm? No chance. Your frame of refence for "how many RPM am i getting" must be coming from either A. the dash...

I'm not sure you can really compare the rev characteristics of one motor to any other. Things that affect rev speed -weight of pistons and rotating assembly -number of cylinders -piston stroke -mechanical resistance of valve train -Cam profile -intake runner optimization -flywheel and clutch...

But Canada uses the same AKI rating that the US does. 94 Octane rating in Canada is equivalent to 94 in the US. Not all fuels measured in the RON + MON/ 2 method are the same exactly. Some fuels will have more knock resistance at idle which is what RON measures and could hypothetically drag...

Never seen/been to a track-cross. This looks like it is a insurance cheaper way to run an event at a track. (no more than one car out at a time within reasonable distance)

Guess it depends on how fast your given track is. Seems a waste to have a flat bottom car and then give up the actual flow directing part in the last yard to goal post. At high speeds I am sure you'd feel a stability difference between it being there vs not. If anything for something track...

The Jubu Syvecs is locked as far as I understand. Maybe there's still some way to reset it load a new program on it. But afaik you can't hand it to another tuner and have them doing things.

Taking the car to a 'tuner' is a different solution to JB4. Frankly speaking, right now unless there is someone who has a flash/unlocked AMG i4 solution, a tuner won't have much to offer you. Specifically meaning a "Tuner" is someone who will either modify the stock ECU through software and...

Yeah. I think there are lots of folks, even who have Jb4 who want a full flash solution that will allow for additional tuning by shop of choice, and will do things like increase revs and remove hard limit. I'm happy to cheer on a solution in that space that doesn't require an ECU replacement...

That is a chart pulled from the VF deck lid thread. He did the runs. There's your before. 376 hp stock car. No mods what-so-ever. Worth noting the 94 or 96hp number that came from Dyno has been "conveniently" rounded up to 100. And the baseline car for Burger was a car with both an intake...

No one on here is saying "Don't buy Jubu when you can jb4". I'm glad it has worked out for you. I hope it works out well for others. But I would not want to be going in blind. So, I think being as clear as possible about experiences and results are the best way to clear the path for those who...

Having run out of fuel a few miles from the track its far better than the opposite. Get off track. Car says "25 miles remaining". Cool down. pack up. get back in. start up. -- Miles remaining. "ah well. it said 25 but that was when it was running hard on track. I can limp it home to costco...

I'll probably be there. I suspect a few others as well.

Worth noting. That Super Lap Battle 1,000 HP Exige is running a turbo-charged 2GR. So these dudes know their way around the toyota V6.
