    Ok.. Just to clear everyone thoughts..

    Engine:
    Hi flow exhaust manifold,
    RS4 CHRA turbo, K04-25, mounted in a machined K04-01 compressor housing.
    Forge FMIC and TIP,
    K&N 3004 air filter,
    N75Race,
    0280156063 fuel injectors TT225,
    NGK spark plugs PFR7Q,
    Moroso crankcase evacuation system.

    Exhaust:
    3”Downpipe to the Stock catalyst,
    2,5”Catalyst to the end.

    Suspension:
    H&R Springs

    Wheels:
    Center Line, Storm. Light weight 18x7

    Tires:
    Yokohama Parada 215x35 R18

    Brakes:
    Wilwood Forged Superlite 4 pistons;
    14”Rotors;

    Eletronics:
    APR k04 software.

    I’m running with 95oct fuel.


    These infos I found on the net when I was researching turbos. I don’t know how precise they are, but I know they are very close.

    The Turbos.
    Their specs are as follows as compared to a regular RS4 K04.
    compressor wheel RS4: 40mm inducer, 51mm exducer

    compressor wheel RS6: 42mm inducer, 56mm exducer

    K03
    That turbo had a compressor wheel with the following dimensions:
    Inducer: 33.6mm
    Exducer: 46mm
    Tip height: 3.7mm

    The K04-001 compressor looks like this:
    Inducer: 35mm
    Exducer: 50mm
    Tip height: 3.7mm

    The K03-052 (K03S) compressor is a bit larger still:
    Inducer: 38mm
    Exducer: 51mm
    Tip height: 4.4mm

    The K03S is saddled with a tiny turbine:
    Inducer: 45mm
    Exducer: 38mm
    Tip height: 6.8mm
    Blades: 11

    compared to the K04 turbine:
    Inducer: 50mm
    Exducer: 42mm
    Tip height: 6.4mm
    Blades: 11 => MY k04-25 TURBO HAS 12 BLADES!!!

    My top speed was 210km/h at 110m to the first leg of the S.

    Hit the brakes, go to 80km/h to make the turn.

    I don’t know the car 100% yet. I need to practice more. Fix some suspension and brake issues.

    But in the end, traction is not a problem, the car have a good grip after all.
    Yeah I just checked out the vid and it performs awesomely and you don;t seem to be having any grip issues at all. I love that track. Looks awesome and very fast. What sort of top speeds can you get upto on that? Looked pretty fast to me.

    Personally, I liked the playing of Black Sabbath and then Pearl Jam in the background until road/motor noise took over

    edit: That boxster destroyed you! Have to get the power down, and brake as late as possible, I know those brakes can do it!
    My human pod speak a lot and have Parkinson sickens!! But I forgive him, I know it is a lot of emotion!! Hahhha

    I saw the Boxter and the Subaru fighting, I was testing the car so I make easy for them.

    I don’t like to play with too much traffic either.

    Did you saw the fast lap video?
