Which do you think will win. Let’s move on to stats. Both of us were at half a tank of gas and were on 91 octane.

2008 Lexus ISF:
FBO
Tune
minor weight reduction

2012 Audi R8 5.2L V10:
Stock

The V10 model runs 11.50s stock. Most modded ISFs seem to average low 12s.

 

Correct those V10’s are no joke. Sound amazing as well.

 

So your referencing the v8 model?

 

Negative. The 5.2L V10.

 

Once again sorry to disappoint all the Lexus ISF doubters. Race was not a random encounter on the highway so I can confirm with 100% certainty it’s the 5.2L V10. Runs were clean and neither one of us jumped. Video posted above.

One of my dream races... I still haven't had the chance but didn't doubt the F!!

 

V10

 

Trust me when I say it was superb! Truly an amazing sight and amazing sounding and looking R8. I had a feeling it was going to be a good race but never expected us to be dead even the whole time.

 

more info on 80mm TB please

 

Sent out my TB to maxbore to get it sized up to 80mm. Link below.

Any noticeable difference with the ported TB? I would guess no, unless you had RR custom tune the car to account for the little extra air flow. Interested to hear your feedback.

 

Hard to say. I did almost all my mods at once so I can’t really tell you what it did I just know I have it bored out to 80mm. I seen RR racing dyno sheet and it showed it gained a bit on top with the RCF TB so I figured even if I get 5hp near redline that works for me. I’ll take any amount as I was chasing the MAX I can get NA even if the gain isn’t cost effective.

 

Good run! Not surprised at all based on your mods👌........would like to see a longer video from a chase car if possible😉
