1000+ WHP on 93 octane! Tim sanders ALPHA 12+ GT-R

Tim's GT-R is nothing short of a monster. In preparation for its final delivery AMS tuner Chris Black has been finishing up Tim's tunes. Earlier this week he put down 1265whp on C16 spinning the tires on the dyno despite having 5 people sitting in it. Today Chris decided to finish Tim's 93 octane map.

The 93 octane numbers were simply incredible!

1012 whp 800ft lbs of Tq on 93 Octane (US)

Making this (if I am not mistaken) the first 1000whp GT-R on pump gas.

Tim's GT-R is a little different than most ALPHA 12's. IN addition to full blown ALPHA 12 he added the following:

ALPHA Ported Throttle Bodies
ALPHA Prototype Intake manifold
ALPHA Prototype Race intercooler kit

Tim's Alpha 12 1000hp Dynograph

AMS Archetype tune on a 2004 Bentley Continental GT

2004 Bentley Continental GT

Over the past year we’ve been developing our in-house European ECU tuning capabilities. While there are a lot of companies offering ‘tunes’ for European cars, only a handful actually develop their own tunes from scratch. Most companies just resell generic tuning files and have no experience or knowledge of how to calibrate an engine. AMS has been tuning cars on the dyno, at the track, and at rally stages for well over 10 years now. The knowledge we’ve gained from in depth stand alone ECU engine tuning and also what we’ve learned from our own engine development programs now gets translated in our new line of European tuning. A great example of this is tuning philosophy shows in the recent tune we did for a 2004 Bentley Continental GT.
