GTM Stage 2 S/C on Meth 507whp/357wtq

I really like what you did with the fender liner. It reminds me of exactly what the inner fenders of my VR-4 looked like. Those were there for the SMIC's

Pretty similar:

So you made 466 rwhp @ 11 lbs boost. That seems kind of low. Is your car a 7 AT ?
i thought the UAM car made 507 rwhp. ?

interesting, i wonder if it's because of 91 oct. My HR did 450whp at 10psi, so you are not the only one with lower output numbers. Altho that meth injection system is seriously impressive, did not know it can bump up almost 40whp that easily

Not sure about that honestly, Seb at Specialty Z tried a race map with 100 octane and I barely got any improvement ( I do have the largest pulley available though at 96 mm so I am maxed out at boost)

I'm a 6MT. I was running 91. I thought 466 seemed low too...

No idea, hopefully someone from GTM can give us some info.

Haha, i know how you feel, my target was 450+, but i did expect a bit more with the stage 2 and 10psi. When i asked Sam for the reason, he said it has to do with 91 oct, wish i can understand it better to know exactly why.

CA 91 is literally the worst gas in the nation. It wouldn't surprise me if a STG 2 here got 40 WHP less than 93 octane cars in other states.

That would be amazing, though isn't 11psi pushing it assuming this is before an engine build.

Doesn't the meth/water injection interfere or cause damage to the stock MAF sensors? If anything they will be cleaner

How much are the IAT's being reduced with meth injection before the MAF and before the intercooler? Which leads into the next question: how much are you able to increase timing from the lowered IAT's?

Have you measured the effect of meth injection on the EGT temps and by how much they can be lowered?

Another great idea from GTM and clean install. When will the kit be availble from GTM?

Zat Zuma,

I haven't measured any temps, sorry. I don't have the equipment. Not sure if an UPREV cable will let me measure temps but GTM never included it with my kit (which is part of the GTM Stg 2 kit) and I've asked for it but they still haven't sent one after a few months. Sam or anyone else from GTM, if you guys can send that over to me, please do.

As for the car itself, it ran well. The oil cooler works. I asked GTM to open up the fake vents up front to allow more airflow and they did that, which is great since the oil cooler sits directly behind that. At the track, I didn't have oil temp issues. The sessions were 20-25 minutes long, outside temp was mid 60's, so while I know it isn't hot out, I was still able to mash it for a long period of time. The highest temps I saw were 240, but most sessions I saw 220.

On the long back straight that leads uphill back into turn 1, I was able to hit 120, and this E46 M3 wasn't able to keep up. He was directly on my *** exiting turn 11 but I was able to pull away. That being said, the driver was pretty awesome and shouldn't have been in my beginner group so as soon as we entered the corners, I waved him to pass. I was definitely slower on this same straight vs a GTR but not by too much. He was definitely faster though. Again, in the corners, he destroyed everyone on the track.

But yeah, the car works, it ran through a ton of meth though. I ran 5 sessions, basically burned through two gallons of meth.

Just wanted to say that the kit works, the oil cooler with the open fang works, the louver behind the oil cooler works...
