First and only pass of the day- 10.55 @133- auto 6262

[Fuel Injector Clinic]

Nice job Chris, that thing is seriously moving... looking forward to seeing you and the car out at the shootout in a few weeks!

Thanks Bryan! See you in Ohio!

Nice run! At your power level, it will be running 9's in no time. Have you thought about setting it up and let the shift-box do all the shifting?

Thanks! I'm actually working on setting it up. It was setup on that pass but I had it set too high so by time it shifted it hit the limiter...that's why I shifted it manually. If you listen closely, you can hear the top of 1st hit the limiter. I either need to raise the limiter a little or drop the shift point to get it to shift where I want it to. Next time out i'll play with that...

which 6262 you running, what brand tires, what cams?

I have almost identical car, about to switch to a PTE turbo but not sure which one i want.

When are you going to the track?




I loved running E85, don't get me wrong. But the closest station is about 25 minutes away. So between the hour round trip and the fact that I have to take 10 5 gallon jugs with me to make the trip worth while just wasn't striking my fancy any more. PLUS, I was out of fuel on my current setup and didn't feel like upgrading just yet. Race gas was an easy choice. I don't street drive the car any more and get to the track 3-4 times a month so the cost really wasn't an issue.

The midwest is very lucky with the amount of E85 stations! Even around here, if I lived 20 or so miles west of Philly, there are a bunch.

I'll probably head back in September after my vacation in August and when the air cools down a bit. I had a set of 1550's in my car that I quickly maxed out, and moved on to 2150's, which I'm VERY happy with. The 1550's were very finicky, the 2150's however were very easy to tune and the drivability is far superior. I'll be headed to either Numidia or Maple Grove, both are about the same distance, but I'll probably go to MG mainly because my Dad lives 5 minutes away and wants to watch.

Awesome pass, the car sounds great! I've been eyeballing those shift boxes for a while now. Although I still kind of like slapping the old hurst shifter

Sounds good! Maple Grove has great prep so it's a good place to go.

I've thought about the hurst shifter, but I love the soft downshifts with the shift box.

thanks, what exhaust housing you running?

It's an open T3 .82 ar housing.

Went to the track last night and a rear 3 bolt axle gave out on the first pass. I'm swapping the ring and pinion into a spare 4 bolt I have and will be putting that in.

That's probably where I'll wind up going. If you're interested, I can shoot you a PM when I'm going to head back there.

A few of us were supposed to go to Maple Grove tomorrow since theres an event at Atco. I'm not sure i'll get my car back together by then though.

Definitely PM me when you're going. I think I met you at Atco once when I had the 16g on the car. Was that you?
