My Dyno and Autobahn Run, videos
Got a chance to dyno my car after I rebuilt the engine last year (currently 5k miles on it). Dyno in '09 was 524whp @ 18psi on 92oct and stock fuel system with AFR's at 12.1, IIRC. This year made 591whp @ 20psi on 93oct, light headwork, and upgraded fuel system with AFR's at 10.9.

Best time to hit the Autobahn and do a high speed run w/o traffic is Sunday (German rest day). Ran on A6 towards Saarbrucken where the straight lasts forever. Third gear roll, 55mph-170mph.

After cruising to cool off I ventured to an industrial park for 10min. Yes, I beat the hell out of my car and it puts a smile on my face... She's no dyno/garage queen.

No qtr mile times. Hockenheim Ring was doing a drag war day the same time the free dyno day was going. I chose free dyno, and Spangdhalem was closer to me.

Re: My Dyno and Autobahn Run, videos
Oh. I actually saw that, but I won't say what I was thinking because what I was thinking is far more idiotic than simply not having noticed.
I'm kinda disappointed. I've gone faster than that on the autobahn in a stock 996 porsche with an auto trans (they didn't have a manual to rent )
Car is sweet, you just need to be more German and develop the attitude of "what is the car's top speed? ok, that is the speed I shall drive at."
