New times, Mid 12's
I only got two runs in because it started raining. Both runs where with 50/50 (110/93) at ½ tank. 1st run was at 22lbs and 2nd was at 22.5(guess)lbs. I thought the increments with the boost controller were more per click. So after the 1st run I turned it up 2 clicks, didn’t do anything really. I ended up finding a back road out there after the track and doing some pulls to get the boost up to about 24lbs. So I never got to run at that boost, sucks. A waste of $15 for the race gas. But it was a good night, I will post the slips tonight.
1st:
1.837-60’
12.605-1/4
111.41 mph
2nd:
1.837-60’
12.520-1/4
112.61 mph
MORE EDIT:Mods are tubular manifold, ebay housing, stock downpipe, 3" all the way to Apexi N1, all 2.5 custom hard intercooler pipes, custom intercooler, Forge MBC @22lbs, HKS 272/272, walbro pump, front mount, lancershop short shifter(kinda sucks), EMS tuned by TurboTrix and did the SS clutch line and took out the restrictor. Empty trunk, under 1/2 tank of 93/110. Thinks thats it.
Launching was hard, because I tried a couple of launchs before the track and at 5000 I burned the clutch really bad. So I never tried that high at the track, only around 4500.
And whats the guesstimate for HP with my trap speed?

320-330whp on the race gas with those traps.
Btw, if you burned your clutch at 5000rpm, why in the world would you LOWER your launch rpm? The lower it is, the more you have to slip it, and the more you burn it. Higher rpm launches don't make you burn your clutch unless you just leave the clutch in too long.

I would say you are probably right around 330WHP, you definetely need to work on your driving. With those trap speeds your your times should be way better. You also need to launch at a much higher RPM, thats why your burning the hell out of your clutch. Before I got my 2 step launch control, I was launching right around 6500.

I was thinking since it was spinning so fast it was having trouble grabing. I dont know, but now what you(warr) are saying makes sence, of course. I might go again tomorrow night see what happens. And now I know how the boost controller works, I will be able to raise it to the boost I want.
I just talked to a friend about buying his girlfriends laptop, so I might be getting one and then will be able to have launch control.
One cool thing about the night was I think I was the fastest Evo there that night, between 2 blue ones that kept racing each other, both low 13's, and what I think was a stock MR, not sure what he ran, but I think he had problems(missing shifts). And that was until another MR showed up that ran 11.7@119(think that was the speed).

He still has a lot of potential.
Sho'um, sounds like that was TTP running 119 in the MR.

First pass missed 2nd (I hate this cue ball shifter, its too big + the clutch engagement may be too low).
2nd pass spinning all of first with 20psi in the fronts, 22 in the rear. Track prep is **** in the right lane, stay left if possible. 11.70@118+
3rd pass finally approaching being tuned (rich the other passes) and then it starts to rain. Sucky night.

TTP, you guys work(affiliated) with John(Jestr) right? I had been talking to him about a retune and he said he would help me with the launch control.
And not tuned for the cams, I got tuned almost 2 months ago and just did the cams last weekend. Race gas was added with my 93, but the boost didnt change, except by maybe a half pound. Hopefully will be getting a tune with Jestr soon though.
I said I was thinking about the track tomorrow, but I think I am going to change all my fluids this weekend and run next week. Plus I have a friend thats getting his car retuned and wants to go so I will wait for him.
