Wow you really are turning into a DSM ******* aren't you? LOL

 

Well after a great weekend of taking pictures of a friend's wedding I am back at home. I also had some time to practice the launch and I think I discovered my major problem. My 2-step is set at 5500 which is just WAY too low to get any boost off the line. Even when I really really slipped it I still fall flat on my face with no boost because of the lag from the 35r. One of my buddies has a cable and I have evoscan so we should be able to fix this and get in the boost range off the line. I think that with my setup around 6400 sounds right, anyone who has had some experience with this in the past feel free to lend some thoughts.

 

And I put the video of the cobra on youtube and the videos of myself and Himler should be coming... even though they make me look like a retard who can't drive at all...

Wow...122 mph...I wanna trap 122 mph .

 

I know somebody local wants a downpipe. It's a great part for a great price!

HKS downpipe - $100

 

I lauched at 5900 rpm on the stock turbo...so if you have the bigger turbo...sounds like it would make sense....give it a try for sure.

 

Takes one to know one LOL

 

I have talked to a few people that have similar setups and ~6400 seems to be about par. 5500 is way way too low for a 35r.

 

i don't believe there will any paying at the event this time, although i am not 100% sure about that.

and i don't know colin. if you make sure to go slow, i think our friendship could be preserved.

 

hey guys, i have a favor to ask. i lost one of the bolts that holds the heat shield on to my exhaust manifold. it's a short one with an allen drive on top.

does anyone have any extra bolts lying around for that?

i know some of you guys have to have some extra bolts around i could get.

 

I have a can with extra bolts and surely I have those. I never want to risk having the car not put together right because I strip some nut so I tend to buy extra first.

 

A stainless steel clutch line is not in your mod list.

Do you have one?

If not you should.

Launching the car with stock clutch line with restrictor pill in much harder.

 

Statler the video of us in my signature.

6400 sounds right but regardless of that launch you should still be trapping higher and should have caught up. There is a lot of criticism you can take into mind here. Sorry I was a little pumped up that was right after.....

When are we going from a roll?

 

if you could root through your can-o-bolts and find me one, i would appreciate it.

just as long as you don't need any of them to put anything back together. i have a habit of taking things apart, then ending up with an extra bolt here, or washer there, so i just toss them all in to a mason jar, hoping to some day find the place they came from.

let me know if you can find em, or i will stop by sometime soon and help you search. since it is missing that one it rattles a bit sometimes and drives me nuts.

in case you guys couldn't guess, i am on a rattle stopping kick lately.

 

friend of mine was at pikes peak this past weekend and this evo owner took a tumble right in front of him.
