I was going to ask that as well, damn that's crazy. Rear seats, passenger seat, lighter battery, and other bolt off stuff could be good for up to 300lbs.

Were you running a full tank of fuel?

I get the bog effect also. Are you on the brake until the 3rd light and then slamming the pedal to the floor?i know on my e60 I would touch the brakes before I would take off from a light or else it would bang in first gear.

What tires you using?
How was burnout process?

Also you can hold the break till the 3rd light does not matter. Just mak sure that your foot is not on gas as sametime as your about to mash gas pedal.

What was your 60ft?

You need HIGH octane for 28psi.
By high octane I mean MINIMUM 100octane.
I did about 108 octane

What was done to your drivetrain to handle a run like that? And how many times did you hit 10.3?

Hard to tel what you define as "tune only" lol

That's why we simply call it "stock turbos"
You have many variations

- Tune only
- Tune only (no upgraded map sensors)
- Tune no JB4
- Tune + JB4 No meth
Etc etc...
Get what I'm saying?

That's why it's easier just to say "Stock turbo" lol
