vid 40-125mph....
did a little vid and stopwatch yesterday from 40-125mph or 60-200km/h. in car stopwatch was 10.7 seconds. i also used an online stopwatch and it was consistantly the same time. not bad for a full tank of gas and a 240lbs pass. next ill do the 40-140mph with a little more road. im expecting high 12's.

Dont feel bad, i do the same thing.
I feel like if and when i do WOT and shift redline, i lessen the life of my engine lol
So if i go WOT, i shift at 7k max but i dont even speed alot so i just half *** redline it, like 6000-6500 shifts.

smg944, your FD is definitely moving. You made like 437 rwhp right? I remember when I was cutting my 14 flat 40 to 140 runs my FD felt fast as hell, and was definitely making around 400 rwhp. Can't wait to see your 40 to 140 times, if you can do it in the high 12s that is really flying

It was a 5 spd, daily driver, owner is in his mid 50s. He has dynoed the car and says he drove it aggressively sometimes, but I doubt it hardly ever saw 8000 rpms. For the health of your rotaries guys, make sure you hit 8k sometimes, remember---they aren't reciprocating!
You do lessen the life of the engine, if you mean physical wear wise. The motor is designed for it though

Nice pull, I am about at the same RWHP with my T78. Video doesnt do it justice, I ran a new z06 from about 50 -130 and walked on the guy. Stock Fd's are quick , this guys FD is fast !
The first time I did a pull on high boost I just held on to the wheel and laughed my *** off.
If you havent been in a single turbo FD , get in one.

i would think that the car un the vid should atleast be low 12's. Not saying that low 12's is slow but my car is pretty much minor boltons and acouple other little things and it runs low 13's?

Finally got my car out and made a 2nd gear pull. I didnt have anyone filming me so i had to hold the camera and drive, so i couldnt go into 3rd.
