Hello, GTPlanet!
I wanted my first post to be interesting and unsual, this counts in my book.
I saw the Vertigo in the used car lot and had to have it. Force of habit led me
to the shop to have Ashton Kutcher give me his celebrity $250 oil change. I notice right away that despite the disgusting state of the oil and significant raise in horsepower, the PP was going down by at least 12 points. I paid Ashton the cash anyway, did the engine overhual and then proceeded to test it out. After getting the suspension/LSD the way I like, I thought I would make the car pay for its self by taking on the Nurburgring seasonal even a few times, Attempting to lower it to 650PP from 664 by reducing engine power level, the PP started increasing rather than decreasing! Reaching its peak PP of 676 at 90.1% power level(840 HP). It retained that number to 86.7%, or 808 HP. That is a drop of 124 HP from full power.
932HP@9000rpm(664PP) < 808HP@7500rpm(676PP) Whats the deal?
