Thanks Joe for the link. Well there are a lot of those small ovens you could use, even better the air fryers that could be dial to 158 or 160 F for 30 min.
Again Kelu, sorry for the drift on your post.

How about a steam iron?

Kelu · « **Reply #77 on:** April 03, 2020, 08:26:22 AM »

They say that it is still remaining for some hours on cloth, a day on cardboard and 3 days on plastic and metal.
How about just leave it aside and then re-use the mask after 3-4 days?

Lets get back to the topic

The family wagon gets some attention, went to a dealership and did an oil change (I didn't want to break the full dealership maintenance and repairs), installed sport air filters.

Did a 100-200km/h test on highway, that is 62-124mph, got a 10.18s with a passenger on a small incline, corrected and got a 10.1s, stock declared to 10.1s, not too bad for a 10y old stock wagon.

I went to the first dyno test as I plan to test it in 2-3 different places on stock form and after the tune.

I was impressed by the result

[ Guests cannot view attachments ]

688Nm torque - 507 tq ft from 2200rpm till 6500rpm

596PS with only air filters on a 580PS stock declared car

This 5L V10 twin turbo is a monster

data confirmed what my butt dyno felt

Damn, I had to go back to Page 1 to catch up on this topic.
That engine is a beast. WOW.

Do they sell the "$12,000 exhaust system" for your car?

Not sure

if is not exhaust system than the ceramic brakes would come close to that amount

but who needs brakes on a 2 tone car?

BTW. I reserved a Ford Bronco Badlands edition.

elff · « **Reply #84 on:** August 12, 2020, 08:32:34 PM »

and I still own a Buell.

Just waiting for Kelu to see both of these posts.

Sol Asylum · « **Reply #85 on:** August 12, 2020, 08:50:09 PM »

He will probably want pictures.

elff · « **Reply #86 on:** August 12, 2020, 09:57:05 PM »

since the Bronco won't arrive until mid to late 2021, all I can do with that is screen grab from ford

Are those bows human size or Malibu Barbie size?

Critterman · « **Reply #88 on:** August 13, 2020, 03:11:42 PM »

SA for elff they are human size for us, more Malibu Barbie size.

Elff, is the badlands the full off road version with 35" wheels? How are you going to get in, step stool?

elff · « **Reply #89 on:** August 13, 2020, 06:29:54 PM »

Badlands is the Off Road version, for some weird reason, only the Wildtrak comes with the 35" tires standard, but I can add that package, and will add that package, to mine.

I still have my mini trampoline if need be

We both know you're drawn to the Malibu Barbie discussion.

Is your vag fast Kelu? Mine was. It was all kinds of fun.
Brakes were expensive. $1200 per rotor. I found a lightly used set for the rear for a few hundred. Best brakes of any car I’ve ever owned. Not that the car stopped in the shortest distance, it was a fat pig, but by far the best brakes. 8 piston front, 4 piston rear- perfect balance. Probably the part of that car I liked best!

Kelu · « **Reply #93 on:** September 14, 2020, 10:22:19 AM »

Feels fast for s stock car, I measured 100-200kph (62-124mph) and is 10s.
Brakes are amazing, 2200kg - 4800lbs, stops incredible well: 390 millimetres (15.35 in) diameter with six piston in front.

They are not cheap 1000-3000k depending on what do you choose, my discs are almost new so it will last another set of pads or two.

Yeah, the brakes... so amazing. Not sure if yours are similar, but mine were interchangeable with the Lamborghini. Just in case you need some junk yard parts. I'm sure there are lots of Lambo's in the junkyards near you.

for sure not ...
I don't think in terms of brakes they are interchangeable, maybe Audi R8 with Gallardo, but RS6 C6 4F is a different platform (A6 4F), I know they took Gallardo engine and added 2 turbos but I'm not aware about brakes. I would think it would be more common that Lambo owners' to find better deals if they try to buy from Audi if the parts are interchangeable.

What exactly model did you owned? The C5?

Kelu · « **Reply #96 on:** January 04, 2021, 10:07:44 AM »

Not sure what should I do with the wagon ... bought a set of winter tires but I'm thinking to spring already ...

I have 2 options:
Stage 1) Just tune - 1000 dickies - goes up from 590hp to 660-680hp
Stage 2) Tune and cat back - 1300 dickies for custom tune (engine and gearbox) and 1000 - 1500 dickies for the cat-back - goes up 730-760hp

I'm thinking to go straight to Stage 2 and stop there in terms of power upgrades because after this point everything gets very expensive.
Or just stay at stage 1 ... for less than half price

So confused

Is that some sort of Currency or just a barter thing with the wife? Afraid to google it at work.

You are getting into too much detail

Critterman · « **Reply #99 on:** January 04, 2021, 06:47:25 PM »

Ask yourself this:

Will I be happy with a stage 1?
If yes, buy the stage 1
If no, buy the stage 2.

Dickies? They are a brand of work clothes here.
