Default Procharged getting faster, and first kill Video

I installed the the procharger friday. I tuned the car and was really impressed with the performance. Only problem Im having is with the brake pedal (see my other post) Anyways, as I drove more and more the car, the car just started feeling faster. Im seeing boost increase a little faster also. I believe it must be the procharger starting to break in decreasing some friction, making the blower build boost a little better. Anyone else notice this the first couple of miles?

Heres also the story of my first kill, luckly it was against a new M3.

Cars:

ATI Procharged 350z, Borla Dual exhaust & Headers. Driver and Passenger.

2003 SMG M3 coupe stock, Driver and Passenger.


First race was from a dig. Im still learning to launch the car with the procharger so I got MAYOR wheelspin on 1 and 2 gear (stock worn out radials). Check out the top end though...

Second race was a 1st gear roll. I gave the M3 the jump.

Hope you enjoy, right click "download and save as"

Beautiful kills! The M3 pulls nice at first, but not a match for a S/C'd 350. Congrats.

Thanks for the props, specially coming from Mr. Potato Head, the best source of knowledge here in the forums, along with, jesseenglish, raceboy and Mike Wazowski. Santo Domingo has the nicest beaches in the caribbean. My son and I race and tune the 800+hp and IS300 turbo. We own Hotel Delta in Santo Domingo, www.hoteldelta.com.do I would like to extend an invitation for a full complimentary stay in the hotel to you guys, we will have a blast here!

Next time Ill try to put on some Nittos drag radials or MT streets on the car that I have lying around in 16 in rims.

Cariza, I too have an ATI Procharger and I will be in the D.R. in January on a company function. I would love to see those rides. By the way, we are staying in Punta Cana.

Also, glad to finally see a s/c'd 350 in action. So many guys have one, but I've never seen one race.

My brother-in-law es Dominicano (from Santiago de los Caballeros). Maybe next time he goes home on vacation, my wife and I will take a vacation with them. Always heard of the beautiful beaches.

That would be great if we could hook up here in Santo Domingo. Punta Cana is about 3 hours away. You can make it to Santo Domingo by plane in 35mins.

Cuando vengan para aqui nos dejan saber, a mi o a mi hermano (webcarconnection). Nos podremos encontrar con ustedes en cualquier sitio, tenemos un grupo de amigos dueños de 350Z lo mas interesante!... Ademas, podemos vernos o en la pista de Salinas, o en la de Ponce o en la de Carolina! No se si sabes que ya tenemos tres! Aqui en PR tenemos demasiados locos por la aceleracion Creeme que el dia que vaya otra vez para Sto Domingo, hare lo posible por darles una visita!

Translation:

Nice car... See you soon!

Hey Cariza,

Do you mind letting me post your video on the M3 forum. I've been killed by M3's numerous time. It would be nice to get back somehow.
