I only did two runs because they were virtually identical, so I saw no point in doing more runs for the same times...

From this we can see that between stock and Buschur Racing stage three I gained 5.69 mph in the 1/8 mile, and gained less than another 1/10 of a mph (.07 mph) in the second half of the track!

Between Buschur Stage 3 and now (addition of Test pipe and forge WG actuator) I gained another 2.44 mph in the 1/8 mile, and an additional 1.8 mph in the second half of the track.

I am surprised by how much my 60' time improved... I am guessing that the TC-SST is launching better now that it has 4000 miles on it than it did with 500 miles on it. Either that or the fact that it was daylight with sunshine heating up the pavment improved traction enough for the improved 60' time. Air temps were the same this time as they were my last time at the track, 60 F.

Good times!

 

I'm guessing it's the same thing that caused you to gain 11mph in the quarter

 

Congrats man. Its good to see the SST putting down a decent number.

 

Nope.

Going from stock to stage 3 I gained almost 6 mph in the 1/4 mile with virtually zero change in my 60' time, and the little change that their was in my 60' at that point was due to a technique change (snow mode vs tarmac mode).

mabye I am weird but it looks like a 10mph gain over stock..Your 60 foot improvement is probably also due to increased low end when you added the testpipe.

 

For the 3+ TP and Forge WG run did you launch in snow mode or in tarmac mode?

 

I did two runs, one in tarmac, one in snow and they were virtually identical.

You need to compare the stage 3 run to my current run. My 60' times stock, and stage 3 were virtually the same with 6 mph gained in the 1/4 mile... then putting on the test pipe and Forge WG actuator gained me another 4 mph AND I improved my 60' time by a huge amount.

A power increase that results in 6 mph gain and nets me zero improvment in my 60' time tells me that a further power increase resulting in a 4 mph gain would not be the cause of my improved 60' time.

Keith

 

at what rpms do you launch your MR?

 

looks good. nice to see a good time for the mods.

 

Nice times and good info!

Bumping this thread with some more q's for you. I don't think I saw this mentioned anywhere and was curious of the following:

1) Were these runs with race gas or pump?
2) All visits were at regular Test & tune with regular track prep, or were any of the track visits at a stickier prepped race event?
3) What size/kind of tires and what was the tire pressure?
4) If on regular street tires, I'm guessing on all your runs you avoided the water box as well for max dry grip?

Thanks!

any other evo x mr faster then this one?
this is the fastest the evo x mr has gone?
