12.8 1/4 mile - what’s left to upgrade?
If you look at my older posts, you’d know that I’ve always had issues with my cars trap times and overall performance.
I couldn’t get into 4.xx 0-60 times for the life of me even on Stage 2, using LC, 13.5 1/4 miles, and the car dynoed at 266 on Stage 2 E30. Time jump to now, and after going with a custom E60 Tune by Cary Jordan the car is finally performing right. Linked in the Imgur are 1/4 mile passes all consist at 12.8x. Definitely a number that I am happy with. I know a few guys are getting 12.7x & 12.6x, but I’m happy with mine. View post on imgur.com The car is pretty much at the most power it can handle tune wise, so I’m wondering if any other upgrades that are a) help with power but b) safe for the stock block. I’ve considered Meth Injection but I haven’t found enough results on how safe it really is on these cars. No plans for turbo upgrade, not worth it for my personally. Mod list: ER Chargepipe VRSF Intercooler Catless Downpipe Muffler & Res Delete GFB DV+ Injen air intake I’ll take any suggestions, thanks |

That’s dope dude! I don’t have any suggestions to give lol but I’m wondering is your fuel system completely stock? I’ve been running lean for so long and I have all the same upgrades you have except for the muffler res delete.

Yes, my fuel system is completely stock. That was my initial worry when doing this tune, but CJ assured me that my fuel system will be fine with the way he does it. I’ll likely upgrade my LPFP just to do it, but I’ve been running the tune at least once a week for about 3 months now with no issues and no signs of fuel system failure.

Bigger turbo however will net the same affect. Cooler temps and safer motor. But do as you wish. I'd say upgraded turbo is totally worth it. If your worried about the car upgrade to the ARP rod bolts as thats the weak point of the internals and you can safely run about 350 worry free with those in. A real 350 not dyno jet 350
