  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ส.ค. 2016
  • World Motorsports of Torrance, CA has spent literally years developing a twin-turbo package for the SLS AMG. And as Craig will explain, the process of developing a car like this is incredibly complex from both a hardware and a software perspective. Now in its nearly final state of tune, he hands over the keys so we can have a blast up a canyon road, and the power is simply monstrous. ;

      @TheSmokingTire  7 ปีที่แล้ว +71

      If you really are concerned, writing a comment on the internet is the absolute last place you should ever be voicing that concern. (From someone who gets fat comments from "concerned" people all the time) It will have the exact opposite effect you want it to have.

    • @Beer_Dad1975
      @Beer_Dad1975 7 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      I dunno, I was 300lb when I was 24, my sister said she was worried about me, which hurt a lot, because it was first time she had ever said anything to me about my weight - because of that concern I lost 130lb and kept it off, more or less for 17 years so far. I'm not saying you should go around bullying people - that's fucked up - but expressing genuine concern, sure you might hurt someones feelings, but if you do it right you might get them thinking about if they want to still be around in 20 years or not.

    • @noahlowery1967
      @noahlowery1967 7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      A lot of it has to do with how efficiently the compressed air is delivered to the engine. If it isn’t cooled down enough after the turbo compressed it, you’re losing a lot of power. Invest in a good water to air intercooler.

    to each his own, i personally would've supercharged it. The amount of work that went into a Twin turbo, the amount of piping and the amount of stuff that can go wrong, not to mention the cost and reliability. I personally think a Supercharger suits the car way better. But props to World Motorsports for building it. i mean its a hell of challenge.

      That's not that high at all though, there are many cars that run 12, or 13, albeit never boosted, but still, 6 psi and an 11:1 ratio is impressive nonetheless.

      TheSmokingTire Thanks for being so helpful and down to earth by providing such useful information to someone who is just coming to you for answers you may know of being your career is on and around modified cars. Glad my sub, views and time taken to ask you such a simple fucking question and watch your videos is such a burden to take seriously. And people wonder where Matt gets this reputation for being a stuck up entitled tool.. No clue where they could have gotten that idea.

    • @mrmidnight32
      @mrmidnight32 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      NorcalFA5 Thank you. And look at that, your reply took less words and time than his smart ass reply did.

    • @TheSmokingTire
      @TheSmokingTire  7 ปีที่แล้ว +69

      Dude, the point is intentionally not to be helpful in this scenario. Running without cats is super illegal in CA, as is running an aftermarket twin-turbo kit. Running any high flow cat is illegal in California, unless it's BAR approved, and then, it won't be a high-flow cat.
      So we don't talk about it. I was trying to be subtle without coming out and saying it, just hinting at it, but since you missed the hint - running an aftermarket twin turbo kit, running a catless exhaust, or both, is illegal in california, and if someone's done it, they found another way around. So for me to give you a straight answer is, effectively, the same as me publicly NARC'ing on someone who's been kind enough to give me seat time in their car.

      Yeah but i mean that's F1 car territory. I've seen 13-14k out of a built 4G63 but how in the hell can something as big as that V8 withstand that without detonating.

    • @NorcalFA5
      @NorcalFA5 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +James Butler where I live in Northern California, 91 octane runs about $4.39 a gallon. Considering Europe has higher octane levels, I think it's about even. 100 octane is around $10 a gallon here also if you can find it.

    • @andrewprecoor5325
      @andrewprecoor5325 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      +NorcalFA5 Europe and Canada both pay way more than even Californa. We're well over $6.00 an imperial gallon for 91 here in Canada.
      Also, European fuels have a higher numerical rating to them, but it's a different fuel classing system. So even though it's rated at 98 or 100, it's really just 91 and 93 octane.

    • @andrewprecoor5325
      @andrewprecoor5325 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +NorcalFA5 also, £1.15/ltr is almost $7.00 us per Gallon. For the equivalent of 91.
      I'm not saying Cali fuel isn't expensive compared to the rest of the US. But it's CHEAP compared to the rest of the world
