Update,

Yesterday we took the Twin Turbo prototype back out to the drag strip in hopes to improve upon our previous time of 11.80 from 2 weeks earlier. We succeeded that goal and eclipsed the previous E.T. record of 11.75!

There is a lot footage from yesterday and there is much more to follow. For now we have put together a video for you all below.

The first run was an in car GoPro focused on the boost controller. We made a peak boost of 9 psi on this run. This was the world record run of 11.493 @ 124.32 This is the E.T. record and as of now we have not broken the MPH record.

The second run is from a GoPro mounted to the front bumper. This run was a few hours later in the day and on this run we recorded a time of 11.586 @ 122.02



Much more to follow.

Thank you, Tony

Nice job Tony!

Awesome Job. 125 is at the top of 4th gear. A couple ways is either shift and increase boost, or increase the rev limiter. Can also run a larger diameter tire. Car sounds bad@ss

You are correct. If you listen closely on that second run he shifted into 5th. A little opposed to raising the rev limiter. The best bet is to put a shorter gear in the rear end. Switch out those 3.69's for 3.35's and combine that with a taller tire. Right now we are on the MT 255/60/16 Street Radials. There are only two other sizes in this same tire compound and rim size. Neither are compatible for this car. So for now, switching out the gear is the option.

Thanks, Tony

Awesome numbers!

Hey Congrats Tony, Dan & all the crew. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/smilies/banana.gifhttp://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/smilies/banana.gifhttp://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/smilies/banana.gif
Could you explain the world record? What class or criteria of vehicle.

Great job guys :tup:

Thanks, we really appreciate all the support. This specific world record is for E.T. (Elapsed Time) in a Nissan 370z. Now after doing extensive research the previous record was held at 11.75 seconds.

There is one car at 11.1 seconds however that is a G37 Coupe.

Thanks, Tony

Congrats. BTW, why is a G37 listed as the fastest 370Z? I just asked the question on the quarter mile thread. Yesterday a friend of mine tried to convince me that the G37 is a 2+2 Z. Crazy talk!

well done

Another video from Friday at the drag strip. Hope that you all enjoy...

Great accomplishment Tony/Sebastian and company! Wow...I guess I need to start saving some coin!!!

Thank you! We all appreciate the support from the community. The ride has been really fun so far. We are now really focused on getting the kit into production over the next month or so. We plan to have the pre sale start in a few weeks or so.

Stay tuned...

Good morning guys! Just wanted to make a little post to introduce myself, my name is Blake and I am the newest addition to F.I. Inc. I have known Tony and Danny for quite some time, ever since I purchased my CBE/TPs from them for my G37. Believe it or not I actually had the first set of CF mufflers ever! Well times changed and I moved on from my G37, and got out of the car scene for a little while. Fast forward a few years and I picked up a 370Z.. I had not talked to Tony in a while however we still had a good relationship. I jumped on the forums and PMd Tony for a price on an CF CBE, and TPs. We got to talking and long story short, my car was chosen as the prototype TT car. :happydance: While we were going through the paces on the TT kit, we (Tony, Danny, and I) started talking about a job opportunity. I have always had a passion for cars, and ultimately knew I wanted to be in this industry however easier said than done just walking away from a job that was paying me well. I went through some injuries and personal things and actually ended up more or less losing my job because of these issues. Some time had gone on since we had discussed the possible job, but when speaking with Tony I asked him if the offer is still on the table to bring me in for sales/marketing and shipping/receiving. After some talking to ensure we were all on the same page they decided to bring me in! I am very excited to be here and look forward to being able to provide as much support for you guys as possible. I am being brought up to speed as quickly as possible and hope to be able to answer ANYTHING you can throw at me shortly. If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me directly and I will do my best to personally answer it.

Now on the boost side of things!

Update, the prototype TT is taken apart and we are in the process of getting the kit ready for production. I know we are running slightly behind on the full press release, however we ended up doing a little more testing than we originally planned. (more dyno time, track time) We also still do have every intention of getting back on the dyno with the 3" turbo back exhaust once we get the fuel issue 100% resolved. Expect a full press release on the kit including pricing within the next week to 10 days or so. At that time guys who want to be apart of the pre-sale will be PMd with their special pricing. Expect the first 5-10 kits to go out at a discounted price.


Thank you, Blake

Welcome!

Do you guys still need the 7AT for testing? (I was the first person to PM Tony)
