  • WOW!! 12.20 in a Beretta

    It's a story of two days results.

    I BROKE my un-breakable 3t40 on a burnout on a stupid un-prepped track. Just an axle!


    Oh and Rodney ran 12.24 @ 118 MPH tire-spinning like crazy in his turbo, intercooled 3500 5-speed Beretta at 11 pounds of boost!!


    And this is the guy some have questioned his tuning ability.


    It just so happens the Quickest N/A 3500 Beretta and the Quickest Boosted ( Power- adder) 3500 Beretta both live in the same garage and are tuned by the same guy!!

    In Canada!

    Sucks about your tranny, but the 12.24 is awesome. Congrats to him!

        12.52 at 118 actually shows more power than a 12.24 at 118, so the extra celebration was okay ROFL.

          Nice times, but that doesn't prove he can tune anything short of WOT. Sorry.

              Well my car runs and drives like GM built it this way, gets 25 mpg with the 3:73 and NO TCC, has no idle issues, or surging. Starts and runs perfectly.

              My PLX wideband reads 14.8-15.1 continually and goes to 12.0 at WOT at 6000 RPM.

              And all the 5-speed guys are scratching their collective heads on why the old man with the 3t40 is STILL quicker than they are.

              Must be doing "something" right don't ya think?

                  12.0 is way too rich..


                  You Beretta guys need to try harder, there are Jbodies in the 10's and 11's with lesser engines..

                    You want to argue about who can or can't tune OBD-1 you are talking to the wrong guy.

                    My 3500 runs as well at any RPM or driving condition of anything I own.

                    It's 99.99% perfect.

                    I don't care about bragging rights to tuning or that crap.

                    It's all silly to begin with.

                    The time slips and the fact these cars actually exist and run what they do should be testiment unto themselves.

                    The guy KNOWS OBD-1!

                    'nuff said?

                      Ya but I'm a suck and won't let him go any further.

                      And I will not shift past 6000 RPM

                      That's just me Dave.

                      And at 118 MPH Rodney is IN the 11's if he can hook the damn thing up!

                              Sweet !

                              I got to line up against that guy !

                              I'm re-starting my tune next year wil larger injectors on code $59, it's got auto-tune features, ect just a wicked program from what I can see.

                              I made 381 HP to the tires on the weekend. It was fun ! Drove my car 300 miles to the dyno as well.
