Not at all. Laugh all you want, I'm the one saving money on gas

 

Well, if it's true, then please let the rest of us in on your gas saving "secrets"

 

No secret. I'm **** about maintenance, tires inflated to 35psi, yada, yada. All the weight reduction (on a regular day with the interior all in-place and me in the car, it still weighs under 3500lbs) and efficiency that benefits me at the track helps with fuel economy as well.

And then the car is tuned, as most are, to optimize volumetric efficiency. This obviously increases available power at wot but also allows for the least amount of work to sustain steady-state driving.

This is being debated in the mpg thread ( https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/09...71049-mpg.html ) in the general section at the moment, too, so you can come tell me how wrong I am over there if you like. I'm not by any means claiming that I average 35mpg throughout an entire tank of gas, but specifically highway mileage only.

 

Congrats on the run Kyle!

 

Thanks Hanz. What did you ever end up doing about the car situation?

Also, here's my timeslip for verification purposes...

 

Who the hell were you running against, 11.224@113.88?!!?!

 

Built mustang, lol. It was only test n tune day, non-competitive

 

I sure do love it when packages show up at my doorstep wrapped up like this:

 

ohhhh what goodies do we have inside?!

 

I had my car recently worked on by CBRD to do the evo x swap and cant wait to see it tomorrow. So excited about the results. Oh and Chads shop is topnotch very clean and orderly. Looks amazing.

 

Very nice write up and congrats on your new additions and great times . I don't know much about the RA's but I find it pretty cool that Chad and the guys are makeing upgraded parts for them and putting up pretty damn good results so congrats to them as well.

I don't of too many RA's around here but it's great to see that even RA's can get some very respectable #'s.

 

Where is it on your website? i don't see it!!

 

Darn-it Chad, I was trying to keep 'em in suspense just awhile longer...

So here are a couple quick pics (yeah, I know they're huge). What a beauty!





I can't wait to get this on and see what kind of improvements are made once I can build and hold boost a little more efficiently with this. I have a couple more goodies in-mind before next season gets rolling, too, but those are still just in the idea stage so far.
