    Wow! Didn't you just get a set of KO2's? Or maybe it's for the trail rig?

    Anyways it seems that you have a thing for tires!

    A quick Google shows we are probably at the same power level. I was on a full stick motor, SPT intake/heat shield, Tactrix/HOA EBCS, Cobb Downpipe and SPT exhaust. DSG wanted to cut off the flanges of the downpipe and catback since they reduced slightly for the donut gasket but I was willing to take the power loss.

    My car was tuned for 20.3-5 PSI and a relatively conservative AFR, maybe high 10s, I forget TBH. I still have the map files somewhere.

    I miss my interior setup. I had the following:
    • V1 Remote Relocate on the column
    • AccessPort on the vent reading Feedback Knock
    • AEM UEGO on the cluster
    • 52mm Defi Red Racer Oil Temp on the cluster
    • Autometer Cluster Pod
    • 60mm Defi Amber BF Oil Pressure
    • 60mm Defi Amber BF Boost Pressure
    • 60mm Defi Amber BF Exhaust Gas Temp
    • Defi Clock Pod
    • Defi D-Link II Controller
    Was it overkill? Sure, but I loved it.

    I had the stock clutch still (unless it was replaced prior to 16,000 miles and 64,000 miles without issue.

    You need to crawl under there and see if there's a hole. Some dealers just don't want to deal with it.

    Not a clue. I never launched the car while I owned it. It should have been high 12s if I had to guess. Magazines had it at 13.4, so with another 60-80 hp over stock I’d have to believe I could get another 0.4 out of it if I knew how to launch it. But since I’m a drag racing n00b, probably high 14s.

    Stole the wife's ride again today..... Love this stupid behemoth lol. Also learned it's JDM AF. In 2011 for the updated QX56 they moved production back to Japan. It was the only luxury vehicle to make some sort of top reliability score back then. The rest were like 4cylinder cars lol

    I love those blue interiors!

    And yeah, seems pretty equal power-wise! I definitely need to add more gauges.

    I'd burn my clutch, bang the limiter like a $3 hooker on Friday, money shift, and leave my gearbox and internals on the strip.

    So like... 15s :laugh: :burnrubber:

    Anyone have any fun plans for the weekend? I'm working 8-Noon, then I am going to grab the angle grinder and cut my rusted bed bolts off. My new bed crossbar supports will be here soon as well, so I can finally get this bed floor project underway!
