First run of season 10.8 @ 141

[slowgsr]

Hey guys!

I previously hit up the dyno and made 579 @ 27psi.

Well, last night I decided to go out to a local test and tune for a shakedown pass to see how the car does!

I DROVE my car to the track (45min), and DROVE my car home! I was on my street radials, so I just wanted to basically make a single pass and do a log to see how its running off the dyno.

I set up the 2 step, launched at just 5500 built about 10psi.

Heres how the slip turned out!

60 - 2.049
330 - 4.945
1/8 - 7.234
MPH - 110.24
1000 - 9.206
1/4 - 10.852
MPH - 141.13

I was pleased with the MPH, at 579hp and 27psi 141mph isn't all that bad! My car isn't a gutted tin can either, its a FULL interior street car, insured/registered. It has a full 10pt cage, a a2w setup with a 40l tank etc. Its probably fairly heavy.

Im glad with the way the car went down the track, perfectly straight, still as always shifts amazing, it was a blast to drive without having of made a pass for about a year since last years setup!

Im just glad to get back out at the track, and next time out I will have my QTP's on that i've had sitting in my garage for months! I think with another 4-5psi and getting that 60ft down, I can do much better!

That's awesome, what kind of tires?
Setup info?

You def. have a lot of room left with that 60ft.

 

[Phil1320]

Congrats! Looks like a nine second ride to me with a bit more seat time

 

[1991GSXAWD]

That car is hauling a$$ for a shakedown pass!

mt et streets 235/60/15, very heavy, not a good tire unless your limited to a radial (rather then bias ply). Would not recommend.

Full setup is in my profile!

Thanks guys!

Canada getting busy that's what I like to see. Canada has it's FAST AS HELL dsm's also . Nice run!! The 60 foot can be improved A LOT and you'll be flying.

Awesome man! Glad to see it all worked out. Hows the tune looking now?

 

[Barlow]

Congrats on the time - especially for the first time out on a new setup. I checked out your mod list and well it looks pretty solid and capable. You have a couple of things that I wouldn't mind for myself

Also, I sent you a pm

 

[standard235]

Am I the only one that thinks you can break 9's?

 

[slowgsr]

Awesome man! Glad to see it all worked out. Hows the tune looking now?

Log of the run looks spot on! I had a few bugs during the year that I finally got all sorted out, and its really starting to pay off. It just felt so glad to finally make a pass! Its hauling for the boost that I was at during the pass, can't wait for more boost

 

[1fastlaser]

Yeah thats 9 second mph...not bad for a street car driving to and from the track on the first passes for sure!

 

[Mr Peepers]

That's a killer mph!! That's VERY impressive in it's own right, and even more so at just 27 psi Props for driving it to the track, too.

 

[slowgsr]

Thanks again guys!

I've learned its not all about peak HP numbers, but powerband and keeping the car in the powerband during the run, as well as quick/proper shifting.

I am actually very suprised with the powerband of this turbo with the 2.0L as well, its friggen awesome! I hit 27psi by 5900, and rev to 8700 so it dosen't drop out of boost between shifts, and Im making 510hp by 6000rpm. I launch the car and its right in the powerband then It just rips all the way down the track, I think a better 60 will make a world of difference!

 

[yellowrs]

1.5 60' will defiantly get you a 9sec pass.

 

[diambo4life]

Congrats. Great time.

 

[domthebomb11208]

141? wow...and you drove it to and most important was able to drive it home? thats awesome dude. Congrats!!!!!!!

 

[slowgsr]

Yes sir, drove to the track, then drove home! This thing easily has more mph and a much better ET in it, stay tuned

 

[Tanro]

Holy ET batman... That is a ####ing sick car 10 second @ 510 horses on street tires with a noob 60ft. I mean I really suck at launching and those are the types of 60 fts I can hit. I am saying 9s when you get used to her and cut .5 or so off those ETs. Hell mid-low 9s with some slicks....

 

[turboboy4]

Yea you get your launch dialed in and cut some 1.5's you will be in the 9's no problem. Nice times

 

[zfanatics]

The different is day and night once you bolt up some QTP or DR tires. 9s ET for sure with more boost and tires.

 

[GrattinoDSM]

damn, awesome run man! can't wait to see what you do with that '60 kicked down a bit
