I'm not surprised you were able to beat those since you have full bolt ons, albeit they are really nice cars! I wonder how a stock RCF would fare against one of those.
Great videos. More of these videos coming soon?

The limiting factor for the RCF is the exhaust system and then the headers, with these upgraded, the car really shines and is simply amazing in the top end, it's a blast! Yes I do have a few more videos I think, lol.

Getting redynoed hopefully next or the following week! Also a max speed run on the dyno, safe and controlled (to a certain extent) lol.

The problem with this is that the real limiting factor to the top speed of a car is the air resistance and the rolling resistance. Unless the dyno can exactly replicate the resistance at the given speeds, it's not giving a true measure of the top speed. I don't have experience in this area, I'm just pointing out the physics involved.
With no resistance, the limit would be 8th gear at 7300 rpm (with the stock rev limiter). That can be figured out with math very easily. I'm sure it is well over 200 mph in that case.

True, well at least I can show the max speed on the dyno, last time the speed limit cutoff was at 177 MPH on the dyno, I would like to see it get past that and hopefully do a true 1:1 dyno in 6th gear.

Hey RCF500, any updates on getting re-dynoed? I'd be interested in what a FBO RCF would dyno.
Haven't seen an update in a while, hope to see more.
your car in incredible! been lurking the RC-F build threads lately, and now I'm seriously considering selling my GS (anyone wanna buy it?) and buying an RC-F!!! watching you pull on that Vette and Aston on the top end was epic! keep up the good work, love the car bro!!!
I've question how did you manage to remove the sensor on the exhaust i mean in the mid pipe because there os a cap around and i dont know how to make it lose
