This maybe doesn't belong here, but it has to do with my track results. This last season I got the Talon to run a best of 14.1 @ ~99 mph. I don't think that all of this is my driving skills. I've gained quite a bit in the three years I've been racing the talon. My 60' ranges from 1.8 to 2.0 I'm still working on that. I've got some new tires that I hope will help. I have been running stock sized coopers they are just a mileage tire(the same for 3 years).
91 Tsi AWD
mod list
mbc @ 16 psi
home made 3" intake pipe
K&N w/ hacked air can
ngk's one range colder than stock
walbro 190 ( i installed this before my afpr now I have a 255 to swap in)
bushur AFPR running stock fuel pressure
full 3" turbo back w/ test pipe RNR (wish i had a new o2 housing)
Ported 14b that fixed my boost creep
ACT 2600
rebulit shep trans
shift bushings
pilot short throw shifter
I attached my logs. I'm using data logger. I know I'm getting knock and that's retarding my timing, but where is that coming from. The knock is shooting up before the injector is maxed out. Is the knock from the exhaust being loud? it's a flow through w/ no cat. Is part of the problem from the O2 maybe. In one of the runs it looks like it is slow to react. Any help would be appreciated.
