akyakapotter Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 ok so my mate keeps going on about racing him ill be rocking TD04 very soon at 0.8 will i wipe the floor with him had a go ages ago ct9 1bar was very close but a bit wet so i couldnt get traction very well what you guys think he has the 231 ps one with catback exhause cheers nick Quote
shorty Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 I think it will be much the same as last time bud. td04 has more lag and @ .8 wont have the chance to pull top end properly. try him when you run 1.2-1.4 haha Quote
Starlet__SR Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 You've gotta remember the RX8's rev like a bike lol. He's got no turbo lag, just constant power. He'll have better traction too lolDay Quote
akyakapotter Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 was very close last time just off the mark i spun like a mofo crap tires at the time Quote
mattyD Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Rx8's are gay, I was quicker at.6 on my hybrid dude Quote
AdDaMan Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Rx8's are gay, I was quicker at.6 on my hybrid dudeagainst a 192 prob.I rekon you will have him though. Quote
akyakapotter Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 wipe his smugness off his face lol Quote
shorty Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Lmao td04=LAG!!! You wont get away as quick and wont pull hard at .8 turbo is nowhere near its efficency range at .8 lol he will rape you more so than when you where ct9 @ 1bar. ct9 is quick spool and quick acceleration due to that. Quote
shorty Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Lmfao at the td04 beats all club. at less than 1bar they are shite and lag filled. Quote
morgey Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 i get the jump on the 231ps from 20-30ish upto 80-90 then by 100mph theyve the edge on me. but im 167hp but will be less torque than you boosted guys ;)so would be swings and roundabouts i recon Quote
akyakapotter Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 ill have to wait till AUG when ive been to tuning devlopmets for my emb to be fitted and mapped to 1bar hehe ;) Quote
shorty Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Thats more like it!! @1bar you should see 210-220 wich is far better. plus the lag wont matter so much as the pull will be harder Quote
pick1 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Wait till your running a bar mate n that will deffo suprise him Quote
Amjad Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 I've been in two TD04 EPs running 0.6bar and they feel quick! Seem to pull top end a lot harder than my GT at 1bar CT9 tbh Quote
Driver Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Mine felt shit at 0.8 and got pushed by a 106 gti with a 50 shot of gas on it. I'd say RX will get away at 0.8. Wait until your 15psi+ and you'll show him a clean pair of heels. Quote
morgey Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 I've been in two TD04 EPs running 0.6bar and they feel quick! Seem to pull top end a lot harder than my GT at 1bar CT9 tbhThats because a surge of power feels quicker than a nice smooth linear power delivery, even if there making the same power. Chances are the smoother one would be thr quicker car ;) Quote
Socks Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 rx8s r not quick lol...ive rinsed loads at stock boost on a ct9.... with bolt ons.. Quote
