Took the car to the track again still below max boost by about 2 psi . Bad 1.77 60ft still went 11.32 at 125.4 then we ran a best trap of 126.4 mph again at same boost....we ran prolly 6 11.3's . That was all bad 60fts cause we upped the tire pressure to 50psi to keep it from breaking the car (rather spin a lot then break a little especially before the shootout). So my goal of 10s with stock intake manifold , stock throttle body , stock compete motor besides cams and headbolts, 94 octane and meth should be a few psi and another hundred rpms away ... (we had upped the rev to 8300rpms ) to get to the 126.5 mph since i have lower diameter 255 40 17s... It looks good though and now that my triple disc exedy is broken in i can actually slip it a bit.

Awesome Dave

 

awesome numbers! you were my inspiration for a killer set up from pump gas and alky. i was going the same route as you, but now i had to change my plans since the elevation where i live is around 7000ft above sea level, so i would get horrible lag, therefore the 35r would be useless and instead i have to go with the new buschur 20g. your car must be a blast to drive with all that power. good luck getting into the 10s!

 

Very nice runs, 10s are very close, good luck on accomplishing 10s.

 

Nice work, see you on the other side.

 

hahaha...i hope so guys! If i thought the motor could handle more this would be cake...lol

 

Dave, what was your best et and mph on the Dynoflash?

 

11.51 and 122.98 mph on race gas

 

What did al have your rpm limiter set at?

 

8100

 

You were running a stock head on that car wernt you? At 123 and 8100 were you hitting the rev limit?

 

yep....i am running stock head right now... i rev to 8300 rev limiter and am going to up it to 8400 . I have to since the rolling diamter of my 255 40 17s is lower therefore i get less trap speed outta the same rpm as guys running 235 45 17s or whatever.... btw with my setup and 8300 rev limit ( 8100 soft ignition and 8300 fuel) i do 126.5 at the bounce.

 

I need to get al to raise my limit, I made one half assed pass on the new turbo and hit 121, I know it has at least 1 or 2 mph left if I leave hard and powershift.

 

Nice job. I have the same problem with having a stock head, so I don't want to rev much higher than you are. 126 with 8300 rpm damn... I was hoping that was more like 128. Oh well 8400 it is then. I hope I don't float the valves too much.

 

keep in mind as i said above my tire diameter is lower then most people cause i have 255 40 17s.... so if you have a 235 45 17 you will do about 128 on the button at 8300.
