The tech guys at Sacramento told me not to run 9's (I need a cage and nomex pants), so I just tiptoed away from the tree, then hammered it in 3rd. 9.82 at 145. Max boost was 15 psi (29/66 tooth pulleys) and the AFR was in the low-mid 11's all the way through the rev range. 28* max advance, 104 unleaded race gas.

This was with a full exhaust exiting at the rear bumper, including functional cats.

 

Holy ****!!
Very Impressive man. SWEET!

Sounds Like you will also need a chute too

So, Did they kick you off the track?
And what do you think it will run in full gung ho mode?

Thanks,
Claude

 

congrats dude!

 

JESUS

You say tiptoed away from the tree, what was your 60'?

 

That's awesome. That is not even tune. Can't wait to see you use the transbrake and gun it at the line. You haven't have a chance to lean it out a little and run a track tune. The 28 degree is still mild for you right.

thinking about increasing boost yet, wheelee bars, parachute!

awesome!

 

 

They didn't kick me off, but the poor guy who picked up the slip for me got yelled at. I bailed early cuz a pan gasket leak was getting oil on the flexplate, which flung it on the header, which made for a 1320 foot trail of blue smoke.

The car should run about the same as Baxter's; 9.teens or 9.ohs at 150, with more agressive pulleys, a less restrictive exhaust (lose the cats), and some tuning.

Thanks for the congrats, guys, it help in the motivation department as I contemplate pulling the pan for a gasket swap.

 

1.489. This was not a t-brake launch, honest! 1st and 2nd were part throttle and short-shifted, then WOT in 3rd. If someone shot a vid I'll put it on my site.

 

That is awesome Jeff!! Sick car That thing is gonna be insane (it already is)

Jason

 

LOL That thing is nasty! I want a video LJ!

 

ahh 145 already! damm I better get on the ball, I should have my cog setup next week, I hope it works out for me...well congrats jeff thats really moving...not bad for the first set of test-tune runs!
