California is a lost cause. Whomever thought this was a good idea needs to be removed immediately from government work. Part of the appeal of a car for many is doing your own work (whatever that may entail) in the comfort of your own garage. ...Published on 07-10-2019 10:41 PM
This is a test many of us were waiting for as it includes popular summer performance street tires most enthusiasts run on their own cars but it includes the big new entry into the category. That would be the Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport. ...Published on 06-30-2019 05:04 PM
Californians had the opportunity to repeal a gas tax that added 12 cents per gallon to their gasoline. They failed to do so and now the state is levying another tax on top of that increase of 5.6 cents per gallon. ...Published on 06-29-2019 05:20 PM
Very solid gains here with simple bolt on tuning on a McLaren 720S M840T V8. This 720S is tuned on 93 octane pump fuel and the baseline was 675 rear wheel horsepower in STD correction on the Dynojet. This is a linked Dynojet. ...Published on 06-28-2019 05:51 PM
If you have been around tuning long enough you have likely heard the name Motec. They are a popular choice for serious engine management namely in high end racing applications but also high end tuner builds. ...Published on 06-28-2019 04:56 PM
This is amusing as the loudmouth Hellcat owner bit off more than he could chew. The Hellcat is spraying a 200 shot or so and apparently the torque (or the laughing gas) went to the guy's head as he demands a 50-150 race. ...Published on 06-24-2019 01:03 PM
This is very big everyday power to have in the lightweight McLaren MP4-12C. It also shows what a tuning value the MP4-12C is today. Even if limited to 91 octane pump fuel Weistec can get you into the mid-700 wheel horsepower range thanks to their upgrade packages tuned for supplemental methanol injection. ...Published on 06-21-2019 10:25 AM
This is not the first time Chris Harris has made this implication of Ferrari cheating. He does not outright call them cheaters in the video below but states Ferrari showed up with their own car and five technicians to ensure it set the Top Gear track lap record. ...Published on 06-20-2019 02:22 PM
This is not officially approved but green parties in Ireland are pushing for it just as they are in much of the European Union. Do not forget three years ago German politicians announced plans to kill off the internal combustion motor by 2030 as well. ...Published on 06-14-2019 09:03 PM
Dyno Spectrum is extracting more power from the factory McLaren 720S M840T turbocharger than, well, anyone else. Just take a look at this example hitting 905 rear wheel horsepower with race gas and methanol injection. ...Published on 06-12-2019 10:08 PM
A great overlay here of a McLaren 570S in various tuning phases. Now, before we begin the baseline for the 570S here of 470 rear wheel horsepower seems a bit low as most baselines we see are over 500 and around ~530 wheel horsepower or so. ...Published on 06-08-2019 07:42 PM
What if you bought an expensive exhaust system and it sounded absolutely nothing like the preview clips? You would be pretty unhappy, right? Well, with any other exhaust manufacturer you would be out of luck. With Fabspeed you would be able to get a full refund. ...Published on 06-08-2019 05:31 PM
They say you can not reinvent the wheel but you certainly can reinvent the tire. The Micheline Uptis is certainly a new take and as you can see in the photo it is not a traditional tire design which is inflated with air. ...Published on 06-04-2019 11:03 PM
Dyno Spectrum just set a new fastest record on the McLaren 720S M840T V8 platform with a 160.54 mile per hour pass in the 1/4 mile. As a reminder, this tops the former record of 159.55 set by a Labworx tuned example that was the first to break into the 8's. ...Published on 06-03-2019 05:20 PM
The GT4 version of the McLaren 570 is obviously built for the roadcourse. It gets carbon fiber body panels, revised aerodynamics, stiffer suspension, cooling upgrades, magnesium wheels, etc. It also does not have to meet the same emissions regulations as the street car. ...
