50trim 1st time at track
well I just finished a 50trim install with a bunch of ther supporting mods of course. I brought it to the track last night (first time ever at the track)
Well my best was
60' 1.84
1\4 12.38
MPH 114.6
I know my 60' can be better but to be honest this I am not used to the exedy twin yet either or the 2 step for that matter. But Is it jsut me or are my MPHs a little low and times a little slower than they could be? Is that all in the 60ft really? I do know that this run was only at 20-21PSI and upped it but was unable to get a good launch because I was trying to hard so I never got a good run after upping the boost.
Other things to note the temp was around 95degrees and my tune is a turbotrix mail in. I think I need to have it dyno'd or I gotta log a run and have it tuned accourdingly. I did notice my AFR up top was 10.5 or so. Overall I am happy so far I started the night off with a 14.5 and no launch. then went to a 13.6 with a bad launch. then got 12.44 12.38 and 12.48 all 3 were 1.88 , 1.84 and 1.93 60's
I guess I just figured the setup would trap around 118 and run high 11s (if I could drive it) all things added together are what prob contributed to the lower traps and times. Ill post links for vids of the good runs

get a custom tune.
my car on straight 93 stock motor with 272s at 21 lbs of boost was trapping 118.
and that was through a highflow cat.
114 sounds like your tune isnt up to par, or something else is going on?

Here are your mistakes for they are plentiful:
- Great turbo kit, but why in the world get a mail-in flash for it?
- Wrong cam combo for the turbo and you paid extra for the HKS name
- SSQV is an awful choice
- Tein STechs are awful for your car
- RnR FMIC is a poor choice
- 20-21psi is a waste on that turbo.
- Your 60' does not have much effect on trap speed
- These are stock turbo stg1 Evo IX times.

You need to drive down to orlando and have TTP custom tune your car. You will see a big diference cause you have bigger turbo and injectors that an e-mail tune not always get right...
The one I recommend in my package, which is the Forge RS. The JDM MR DV/IX DV is great, of course, but if you want to run high boost, then the Forge RS is the better choice.
i would just run the stock evo 9 dv. I also made the mistake of runs the hks bov on my older dsm and you be suprised with power lose. You might be better off on a custom tune running that bov
