Went back to the track on street tires

[JohnTSI]

Well I decided to take the car back to the track yesterday and had originally planned to run on some Quicktime Pros. Drive 50 miles to get there and see that the track seems to be sticking pretty well, so I figure what the hell. Pull onto the track with the Falkens on the car, car feels like it comes out of the hole pretty good, decent 1-2 2-3 shifts 4th has been a problem lately so I shift into neutral wiggle the shifter side to side then hit 4th (I know a hit to time and mph but who cares) Pull back around thinking that was a pretty decent pass and get the slip.

Not bad for street tune I guess, the other car we brought broke the pass before so I decided that is enough for the night since we only had 1 trailer in case of trouble. Car is still conservatively tuned on timing and boost. Once I get the slicks on and turn the power back up should be a hell of a ride.

Wow. That's pretty impressive.

Wow Great Time!!! Im happy to hear you had a good night out! I was wondering how the car does on/off bottle. Whats your best for both? Boost level on/off bottle, and what size shot. Direct port?

Thanks for any response. Keep up the great times!!!

Car is runing a single fogger 50 shot. Boost off the spray is 28, 30 on it. Have not run it off the spray in a long time. A year ago it went 11.6@127 off the spray with a bad clutch at 25psi, now I am sure it could go high 10s with tuning and the 2 step on.

Cool man! Do you use a bottle heater? Purge? What brand kit do you use? How long does a bottle last. Single walbro fuel pump? Again, thanks for answering my question if you got time.


Happy boostin!

I have a bottle heater but its not cold enough to put it on yet. I do not have a purge, kit is a regular NOS wet kit. I am running 2 walbros, 1 intank 1 inline. Seem to use roughly half a pound per 1/4 mile pass.
