11's in the MR..FINALLY!!
 

Well the MR 4th gear has been owning me all year long and finally broke into the 11's at street wars..Best was 11.93@117.8. I also backed it up with an 11.97 and another 11.9x at 109 during brackets. I was oblitterating all four tires with a 4700rpm stationary rev limit with 20 psi in the tires and my 60ft times at street wars was 1.90 to 1.93 (terrible). I was running a spike of 24psi settleing to 22-23 with a mixture of 93 and 1 gal of c16.

Now I am wishing I had a 5 speed for the 4th gear but I like the 6 speed better for daily driving and basically anytime I am not at the track..Here are some vids!

I made it to the final round but they had to end it early due to curfew. This makes 8 trips to englishtown in a row that I've won money placing either 1st or second place in whatever class I was racing in..

Did you lower the stationary rev limit? Unless you lowered it, it should be around 5k or so from the factory. Mine was bogging at 5200, so I don't doubt you had some issues bogging. I've seen worse than 1.9 60' times though. Raise that rev limiter to 5500 or a little more and turn some 1.7 60' times. Get that thing down to 11.7 or better. Good runs. A little bit faster and you get to shift to 5th...!!

Nice job into the 11's! Once you get traction figured out it should be much quicker with that trap speed since you went 12.20@~111 before

I lowered it because I was bounching of the rev limiter as soon as I disengaged the clutch..I make alot of torque between 4-5000rpms:)

I need traction badly, I'd be soo happy ith a 1.7 right now..I'm just wondering what kind of ET's I would have if I was in the mid to high 1.6's again!! A .3 difference is HUGE!!

Congrats.

congrats bro

dang nice runs!

Nice times but why are you using C16 with a 24psi spike? If anything, it was making the car richer at that amount of boost.. I used to run a 24psi spike on my 05 with no knock.. Next time, turn up the boost to 26-27psi and u will see a difference

wow you give me hope! What clutch are you running?

Because that is how I wanted to tune my own car. I could easily tune for 24 on pump but I choose not to. I like to try to keep the turbo in its efficiency range and keep the boost and charge temp as low as possible..I tuned the car for a mixture of fuel so running rich is not the issue, even though I deliberately run rich anyway. I try to make the power in the tune rather then boost pressure..I am not going to turn up the boost either, theese trap speeds for an 05 MR with my mods arepretty much unheard of and I am happy with it..

Exedy twin HD (awesome clutch) hopefully it will last a long time:)

That is a good MPH considering the 6 spd. You must be shifting into fifth? Or revving to 8.5:crap: ??

I have to check my logs but I believe it is no higher then 8000..I am running 245/45/17 potenzas so they help me out alittle

There is no hope for you:eek:
