Not a problem but if you don't believe it go to The Nopi Battle of the Imports Va. motorsports park, in Dinwiddie results on Sept 4th I believe and the results should be in Second place Bracket 15 and it should still show the results but, I will still post my time slips in the registry and in here. I SWEAR. And I'm not totally sure why my car ran a 15.4 because you do make a valuable point PJal, but it did and there were plenty of witnesses, and my I add that time was ran on 17" rims and on street tires, launching at or about 2000rpm. But instead of bashing (if you guys are) congratulate. but until then I'll hola.

 

i'll congratulate you with these questions answered..

what were your shift points?
may i see your time slips?
do u have pics under the hood to verify you didnt have mods at the time?
did u gut your car?
race gas doesnt really make a diff, but did u use higher octane fuel?
and.. were you smokin a bit before you went out? heheh.. thanks..

my best was 17.1 with intake and exhaust.. if u got 15.4 stock.. i must really be doing something wrong..

 

Ok Lets begin Your Quiz.
Q:#1 What were my shift points?
A: 5900 to 6000rpm

Q:#2 My you see my time slips?
A: You all my see the slips its not a problem (as soon as I am able to use my friends scanner, ONCE AGAIN! sorry Mike).

Q:#3 Do u have pics under the hood to verify you didnt have mods at the time?
A: I will provide you with that picture, but my I add if you were paying attention you will know my car didn't run a 15.4 stock, it ran a 16.40.

Q:#4 Did u gut your car?
A: Lets just say my Lancer is lighter than most.

Q:#5 Race gas dosnt really make a diff, but did u use higher octane fuel?
and.. were you smokin a bit before you went out?
A: Bone stock? NO. With my add ons plus I was planning on running with nitrous at the time but couldn't run with the bottle, I used 108. And NO I didn't blaze dog.

No problem hit me up.

 

well...first off you shouldn't have shifted at 5900-6000 because the lancer's power band ends at about 5,600. hurry up with the damn slips. how long does it take to stop at ur friends house to get a piece of paper scanned. lancer running 16.4 stock it still sketchy. i don't believe anyone who says that. its bull. 15.4 is what i got with my turbo...so there is no way you got that with just a few bolt ons. with the NOS i can see...but the exhaust and crap...no. even with taking out your back seat or trunk liner and spare tire you not going to knock off a whole second.

also why the hell would you use race gas. that will only make you run richer with the higher octane and slow you down. all it is is to lower the air/fuel ratio to prevent detenation. no use to be used on your car.

 

hey guys, i was thinking of buying a lancer OZ, and throwing in a Turbocharger, but seeing as you guys are only doing 15s, im thinking of reconsidering and getting an Eclipse GT 5spd, and slap a turbo in that. im from Montreal Canada. and there are two tracks near my place, i gotta compete with guys that on average run 13s, im aiming to run with guys in the 11s and 12s. so what do you guys think i should do? well im open to opinions.
you wanna know what the crappy part is? i cant race my IROC-Z against imports, "different class" i know, but its fun lol. thats why im out looking for a new , i cant stand hondas.

 

well this should be in a different post but if your looking for a fast car don't bother with a Lancer OZ. you can make it run 12's if you got the cash. same with any car really....................if you want a cheap and extreamly easy car to make it go fast get a first or second gen DSM. buy a good DSM for 6,000 + 2,000 in upgrades and you in the 13's already...another 3,000 and your in the high 11's mid 12's

 

well dude I'm sorry that you are pissed off and for the record if you must know its not like I can go over to my boys house in a few seconds and scan the slips, he went to the Sema show in vegas so be patient dude are you really pissed of that my all motor lancer can hang with your turbo Lancer, J/k dude don't take it to the heart man, we are coming up to Jersey soon I believe I'm not sure when, but maybe me and you can meet up so we can check each others cars out. so instead of tryin to battle against me lets get the Hondas first. But if you wanna brawl and make both our tires scream lets play. But until we meet lets have Lancer unity. Shyt the Hondas can why can't we.

PEACE

 

heheh well i'm not pissed off...i just know what this car is capable of doing...you must have some secret i'm not aware of...but yeah let me kno when your coming up here...it will be cool to meet up

 

z, shifting that late DOES put you past the peak, but it also puts you back in the 4krpm area when you hit the next gear...which is 250rpms below peak torque when stock as I'm sure you know. Yes, there's an arch that starts a downward curve, but think after the shift as well. Anyway, it seems to be the best technique in my experience.

 

yes....it seemed that when you shifted at 6000 rpm you have a higher trap speed and a lower ETA. when you shif at about 5,650 you have a lower trap speed and a higher ETA.

this is from looking and asking a bunch of different people who ran their lancer

 

ok.. evo7.. thanks for answering my quiz.. i'm not going to bash you, however, i am wondering what i did incorrectly. with that being said..

i ran 17.1 with exhaust, test pipe, intake, and new iridium plugs (NO big deal on the plugs) the stupid thing i did was used high octane gas just for the hell of it. with that time, i carried each gear almost past red line.. shifted right before the engine peaked..

soooo.. if i shift at 5650 at every gear.. my time would go down a bit?

would ya'll recommend shifting at the point at every gear? 1-3?

 

Im pretty new to this forum but it's funny listening to the quarter mile times posted. Is there anyone that has done anything quicker than that say in the high 10's or low 11's.

 

4banger...these 1/4 mile times are not for a EVO...its for the OZ lancer...with 120 hp stock...there is no way anyone is going to be in the 11's anytime soon..

 

oh ok thanks zlancer. hey but havent you got a Turbo Lancer i've got a friend with a Lancer gsr thats in the high 11's. Of course this is in New Zealand tho so im not sure what the difference is with your car. he's running a TD05 tubo in his.

 

yeah..i have a garret t-28 turbo running at about 6 psi. stock hp to the wheels is 103 about and torque is about 111. mine now is 170 hp and 185 ft/lb torque. i have horrible traction problems because it is only a FWD with no LSD so i was only able to run a 15.4 in the 1/4 mile. i can easlily make low 14's if i can get traction. stock the car runs about 17.
