well I went to the track yesterday to try out my newly installed 14b and i wanted to hang myself. My car ran a 15.7 at 89 mph
R/t .732
60" 2.540
330. 6.795
1/8 10.231
mph 71.06
1000 13.224
1/4 15.731mph 87.83
My mods are 14b , cat back apexi 3" exhaust, injen intake, blitz bov, apexi avcr boost controller. Running about 12-14 psi
I dont know what happened didnt seem like it was a bad launch but i know i saw all stock gsts runnin 15.2 and 15.3's so i figured id be well into the 14's but i geuss not. Can anyone give me any tips on maybe what i did wrong by lookin at my crappy times?? but even if i was driving a lot better...i dont think i coulda made it into the low 14's..i saw a all stock AWD 95 talon run a 14.4 with a 140k on the clock. My clutch is still stock so im not sure how much that will help but i wasnt even chirpin the tires when i slammed into second...just very depressing...
Also for some reason i believe i have a boost leak i just have a bad feeling...anyhow i checked all my vac lines over and over and i cant seem to find anything is there any sure fire way to check for a leak?
Also i know my plugs are burnt pretty bad so i bought the ngk bpr7's and i hope those will help there not installed yet..sometimes i feel my turbo sputter a little bit in higher gears it did this on my t25 and my new 14b but it pulls hard just incosistantly think this can be due to fryed plugs? or a boost leak? any ideas would help im pretty pissed about my run
