  1. Maybe I should have clarified...rarely driven to on the street. Any miles I put on it will be at Atlanta Motorsports Park (AMP).  I want to start collecting cars that I think will go up or hold their value...getting feedback on that is the intent of the post.

     

  2. So I am looking to buy a 2020 GT350 with 800 miles or a 2020 GT350 Heritage with 3100 miles.  Price is about the same (~$73K)....what are your thoughts regarding which one will be more of a collectors item?  Regardless of what car I purchase; it will rarely be driven.

  3. Just wanted to give the group some options when looking for more power. I am a gear head and been around cars and tuning for a while now, this is a great option for people who want built in safety thresholds and one-click simple tuning.  I have clocked repeatable 0-60 times at 4.9-5.0 seconds (excite mode) using Map5.

    I installed a piggy-back tune from Burger Motorsports 4 months ago...http://www.burgertuning.com.; it is amazing!  I used his products on my 2012 BMW 335IS with twin turbos; took that car from 320HP (crank) to 590 HP (Wheel) using ethanol and I ran it hard for 3 years before trading it in with no issues.

    The tune uses Bluetooth and a app to control the "map" settings and you can view real-time stat's like AFR, boost, etc...the "tune" installed in 30 minutes and can be removed before taking it to the dealer (leaves no trace).  The best thing about Terry's tunes are that they leverage the stock ECU mapping and sensors...it will cut power (timeing) before it hurts your motor.  You will know when you use a improper map :)...the car feels like a slug and you can look at the logs on app to see the details.

    Details on the tune: https://www.n54tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51436 

    Map0: Fully disable JB4
    Map1: 4psi peak over stock
    Map2: 5psi peak over stock
    Map4: Low boost VALET map
    Map5: 6psi peak over stock
    Map6: User adjustable by RPM map on user adjustment page, values are peak boost over stock by RPM under heavy throttle.

    I live in GA and use 93 Octane. (image attached is map 5)...blue line is actual boost, white line is stock boost curve, yellow is AFR and red is timing.

    Have Fun

  4. Can also plug the iPad or iPhone into the HDMI port. Just get the adapter: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MD826AM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter

     

    Get a light basic HDMI cable with a small light plug like this Monoprice cable so it won't weigh down the device or stress the jack: https://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-High-Speed-18Gbps-Supports-Ethernet/dp/B014ROOB9U/

     

    Amazon and Monoprice sell them in multiple colors and lengths.

    Just FYI-ours came with a apple lightening to HDMI Adapter and HDMI cable

  5. We anxiously awaiting our BL w/ rear seat entertainment and I had a question that I have yet to find an answer to.

     

    Does each screen have its own HDMI port or do they share one master (driver side?). Just trying to determine if I need one or two Firesticks.
