Just ordered the clutch and i'll have it in a couple of days exeddy triple carbon, its will handle 900 hp they say we will see if it handels the track

 

It just shows how bad my driving is

You gain .5 seconds off my time by the 1/8th.

Nice shifting!

 

i also have more power than you also.

 

Way To go. Send me an email with your mofications and and a nice picture and Ill try to get you on our website under featured cars.

Yeah- would love to see some pics of the car

 

If trinababe is the same person as T.R. (initials) with an 04 in WI, then from what I understand the power should be close. Ithink

But then again if your car does weigh 3750 lbs + person then you have a tank and/or your a tank.

What clutch did you just waste, stock?

 

Hello...we need assesment and diagnosis....

where is Dr. warrtalon?

 

a twin plated exeddy clutch was the wasted clutch, a stock clutch would never hold that much power for all the tunning and runs that my car has been threw

 

Just sent pictures to eric at AMS and hopefully they are up soon

 

I have trapped higher than you with horrid runs (11.8's) shifting slowly If I gave it a hard run and could actually drive/shift it well I would be much closer to 130 at the same boost.

Like here is a run that is funny I did today:

60' 1.892
1/8 7.878
mph 96.65
1/4 11.798
mph 126.76

That is at 26-27 psi.

Or one that my IC pipe blew off:

60' 1.887
1/8 7.574
mph 99.67
1/4 11.635
mph 108.21

As you can see my car needs some work

 

Judging from those times vs mph, You shift like a girl (not saying anything wrong with that) but have a 10 second car.

Don't worry I trap 88mph with 8.0ET so not only do I shift slower, my car is as well.

 

The car locked me out of shifting. Im trying to diagnose/fix the problem currently... HOPEFULLY I will get it fixed my Sunday and run it again. If I can fix the shifting problem I will finally see what the car can do. These shifts were VERY slow, every shift resulted in re-spooling the turbo from -11 in/mg and took about .5 seconds per shift. When I could shift fast the boost would only fall to about 22psi and take .3 seconds each. An example is when I shifted like this at really low boost I made a 12.01 @ 117... fixed the shifting and ran an 11.55 @ 123 without changing anything on the car one week later.

Im still not that good at the 1/8th so my honest guess for this weekend if I can fix it would be, at the same boost, a 10.8 @ 129-130.... and thats if I dont turn the boost up.

 

The 1000' time does not seem right. It took you .3 of a second to go the length of a football field. That time should be around 8.9 or so.

 

i think i know whats wrong and why its locking up while shifting, i had the same problem, when i diagnos it it was either a bad pressure plate or air with in the tranny, so i tried the cheap way first and blead the tranny and that worked....

 

Speeking of bad shifting, are you guys using short throws or the stock shifter?
