And I have to say, TSM did an AMAZING job on my car. It just goes. I've only put 3000 miles on my car since the build (June), but I can tell you all 3000 miles are race miles.

I'll do like 8 back to back 60-130 runs LOL. So far so good. Stout like a mofo. Sheptrans is amazing. I honestly cannot believe how fast modded cars are nowadays versus 10 years ago. You do need to keep up with maintenance. I've changed my oil 4 times and tranny oil 1x already in 3000 miles because I know how I drive the thing and I want to keep the car happy. It's important to be aware of the details.
 
You got a pretty stout build. Is your 1300awhp e85 map a conservative tune or is that maxed out? TSM usually tunes their GTR's upwards of 40+ psi with builds like yours just in case a special racing event comes up.
my 4.4 a12 has never seen 40psi either out of TSM

Ususally run 32-33

I believe TSM built a 4.4L A16 pushing 1600whp at 42psi and said they still had room to play with...Correct me if I'm wrong.

Battle do you have a red Greddy Manifold? I think I just saw a video of yours.

The red Greddy manifold is Isaac who also has a 4.4 TSM built motor A12
 
It is pretty much out of steam at 33psi. We left maybe 2psi on the table as a margin of safety. Remember boost is a measure of resistance. Power is about how much airflow gets into the engine. The 4.4 liter just generates the power earlier and faster at lower boost. This means the turbos are flowing the same amount of air to generate X power at 33psi instead of 38psi or whatever. Here's a dyno sheet comparing 2 Alpha 12's on the same dyno (but different day). Blue line is my 4.4L and the red line is a 4.0 liter Alpha 12. Both cars have pretty much the same mods on the intake and exhaust side.

As for your question on the mod list - well it's the "standard everything." Shep stage 4, intake manifold, heads, big cams, 12 injectors on ethanol, 102mm exhaust, Motec, etc.
What cams are u running?

What wheel set up did you have on that video if you don't mind me asking? How much was the 997 making? The new 991 GT3 looks good. PDK dual clutch.
I am just on 20's mated with R888's for both the dig race and the roll race with the Porsches.

The Porsches are on 3076 turbos but honestly was down on power for that race because they were on pump gas with meth injection. The yellow Porsche was just boosting 1.4bar when on race gas he should be pushing 2bar. My guess is he was only making 700whp vs the 900whp it should make on high boost.
 
That car is fast , A12 or Bl1300 on 4.4 are the best setup for street
 
A12 on bigger displacement engines on the street are by far my favorite street cars.

This one looks to be a joy to drive

Enjoy in good health!
