April-July 2011 (Personal best ET, Autox, Road Course, Show, ELHS, Tial)

In my last blog entry I added a FMIC, 850 injectors, V3 lite, and switched to speed density. I had a best ET of 14.3 @ 101 in San Antonio (before all those mods) and a best ET at my local track in El Paso of 14.7 @ 102 (after all those mods).

My last blog ended with this sentence: For the next blog expect...

Still waiting

Posted 03-29-2011 at 03:05 PM by 95talongirl (TrboBLU - Project Ricecar to Racecar)
Tags dsm, talon, tsi

in my last post, I think I mentioned something how the engine surprised me with needing machine work. One would think that by now I would've learned that nothing gets by "easy" with this car.

Tags awd, dsm, talon, turbo

That product is holding up better on the Dodge Shadow...

Modifications:
EVO 16g
FMIC
3" GM MAF
650cc Injectors
255 pump
DSMLINK V3

These will be running on a stock engine until spring. Come spring time, it will get a fresh rebuilt engine. (The engine from...

Posted 05-13-2010 at 09:25 AM by secongendsm (Project "What was I thinking?")
