GT30R at 20psi is not that fast. The DSM should have been running some good boost say 25-26psi and it would have been a different story. The quality of the video isn't the greatest. Nice kill for the Bimmer. ;)

lol "ready?"...oh where did ya go :D That thing is pretty quick, and if your car is an 11 sec car then damn, i still give you props though...ask for a ride next time :)
Negative, found the video on Honda Tech.

Thought some guys would want to watch it, looks to me like the M5 took a jump, regardless it was fast as hell. :eek:

Agreed, isn't that the same turbo the all famous AMS EVO runs at 35+psi ?

No. The AMS EVO runs a GT35R, and it's a 2.3L.

Video

Eclipse: GT30R turbo @ 20PSI all supporting mods.

M5: Area 51 supercharger, boltons.
That Eclipse may be an 11 second car, but it sure wasn't that night. Look at the video. If the Eclipse is an 11 second car, then the M3 is a 10 second car at least. You're not going to get that with a supercharger and boltons. BS on that Eclipse being that fast.

From what I have read so far, they are claiming the M5 was putting down 600+whp.

Its Josh Kalis's car, pro skater.

M5 Buildup

Quote from the buildup of the M5 site...

The dyno runs we have done were for tuning purposes only. We can share that at 6000rpm the engine was putting down well over 600rwhp running only a little more then half its boost. When at its full peak potential the Blower will be at 22lbs. boost.
 
wohoo I knew the vid would surface. The eclipse owners name is yomani and the specs on his car are right the turbo is a slowboy gt14 though(not sure on the differences between the two). I got a chance earlier that day to ride in the m5 and omg its insane. 4 people in the car with the windows down and it was pulling my head back hard. ( he owed me a ride b/c I raced his other m5 with mild bolt ons and held right with him). I will do my best this weekend to try and get more video of it that one has crappy quality.

That m5 should ( what the builder said) be a mid 10 when all is right.
 
From the original post, it said only bolt-ons and a supercharger. I see from one of those links though it has a fully built engine. I believe it now...nice car!

Wow that tells us a lot... I also bought my car for under 100k.

And BTW, for 100k it's not difficult to make a car that fast.
