Ran at the track Saturday.

[20psi_GST]

Well i just decided to run my low boost setting Sat. at Mooresville. First time running there, was alot better track then im used to so i kept uping my launch RPM. FWD sucks at the tree and street tires dont help at all . My low boost setting is set at a little over 20psi (20.3-20.5 most the time) but for some reason it was only peaking 16-17 then spiking down to like 11 and running back up to 14. Each pass i looked at was a little different. Sometimes only hitting 15 and spiking to 10 and running up to 13. The car must have a leak that i dont know about, need to do a test and find the problem.

Ran about 10 times . All 9.1's, missed 3rd about 60% of the time for some reason Heres what most the 9.1 slips looked like, with shittier launches. Best 60ft was in the 8.9 run.

Also, the car has a tune for 24psi with 100octane. Just didnt have the money to run it since its 5.99 a gallon, and kinda glad i didnt since it was leaking so bad.

Best slip
60ft-2.237
1/8 ET-8.909
MPH-80.799

i dont car about R/T. I just sit at the line and make sure my RPM is where it needs to be, then take off. Ive had em in the 2 second range before. When i get a 2 step ill try on my R/T a little more but until then i could care less.

Not bad I ran 9.50s with my old 90 gst 14b at 17psi with no other mods. Leaving about 3500 rpm.

get that short time down and you would have some very decent times!

 

[boostdog]

you have a 20g and only got that in the 1/8? man you need to learn to peddle that thing it has alot more in it than that. I was pulling 8.6-8.8 in the 1/8 with the 14b ( i have awd to but still)

Also i bet if you got to a 1/4 mile track it would really surprise you on the trap speeds.

Well if you had awd you really shouldn't compare it to fwd then, because its really hard to hook for us. And let me tell you its gets really frustrating after a while trying to hook up!

^^^ there are plenty of fwd dsm's running faster than my 1.8 60ft time. You bought a fwd car and need to modify it to launch better. I am not trying to be an a*s but where there is a will there is a way - project goodwill is a good example.

The best I ever got was a 2.1 with a stock clutch.

If you read above instead of JUST lookin at the slip youll see that it wasnt holding boost well. Basically i was only holding 13-14lbs. Its tuned for 20 on 93 octane so im sure that was ####in up the A/F. Yea the best 60 i could manage was the 2.237 which was in the 8.9 run. Ive got my piggy bank full of dimes and quarters and ###### gonna buy some drag radials. The car hooks in 1st, its just that i have NO LAUNCH. I must ride the clutch until i get past the tree. Then its all good. Im sure after some boost leak test and a tuning session to get my A/F in line even with the same tires i could of pulled 8.7 or so. With drag radials i dont see a problem with a 1.9 or 1.8 60ft time which will help me alot.

I just posted the slip for the hell of it. First time with the track on the new turbo. Thats why i didnt run 24psi and 100octane, which is my high boost tune. I was just trying to a baseline and i dont think 8.9 is a bad place to start.

Im still on stock clutch BTW
