Enjoy

New barrier broken today everyone Feel free to share it out

603hp / 1080nm (800lbft)

Impressive! Is the S-tronic ok handling that much torque? And is it just the graph scaling that makes it look like power and torque climb so rapidly/steeply?

Its a 6hp 28 box - comes on full power by 3k
2bar boost by 2.6k rpm

Insane stuff mate, I was wondering if there are any upgrades for the s tronic that will improve its ability to handle power

Oh, I saw a facelift interior gearknob and wrongly assumed it was an S-tronic. Still the old ZF has a torque limit lower than 1000nm? Not that it will insta-destruct at higher torque but still, you're confident this is safe for longevity?

Can install better clutches which are around 2k plus labour

ZF rate this gbox at 700nm but I've been at 980nm for around 2.5 years and now at 1080nm.
Confidence? umm unless it breaks we won't know the limit right so lets keep pushing

Very nice work Bobby!!!

Surprised the driveshafts aren't like drill (all twisted)

 

[bobby singh]

haha lets I don't think its wise to launch it
rolling is fine I guess

 

[Gattmill]

Wow congratulations, what have you done recently to achieve this?

 

[bobby singh]

My build thread is on this forum and on ASN

And why not if you don't mind me asking ?
lol 😁
3000 rpm, traction control switched fully off, foot on the brake, Let go off the brake and wait for the loud bang/smoke lol.

Let just say a S5 with 500hp makes around 600nm, Im at 1100nm so its nearly double and I've twisted a propshaft with less torque.

Only joking Bobby excellent work as usual 👏
