did you get in under the wire to get a refund? that sucks you had to cancel... i will be at the fatt day at summit may 12th... maybe you can catch a spot for the 12th. i went to the dyno day on sat so i didn't get to meet ya, maybe i'll see you at summit. i'm signed up on june 23rd. too

 

Yep.. you can reschedule once and so they have me on hold with credit til I call with which day. Everything until July is novice waiting list. I have two track days so far so I am def novice group. So I may take July 28th even though it will be hot as you know what because Sept is busy for me.

Already talking to TurboTrix about ACT.. How ironic they were installing one when I was getting tuned on Fri and I was asking them about them and cost.

 

How many times have you launched it?

 

7 Three two weeks ago at Atco for the before numbers and 4 at Englishtown after tuning Friday. Its not how many.. its the quality and this is my first AWD car with only 3300 miles on it. I upped the power perhaps too soon when I needed to learn how to drive it better. I will replace the clutch and see if thats the problem. If it does not fix then at least when it is fixed I have a better clutch in there. But I truly believe now that its the clutch.

 

Yep... clutch fo sho.

 

more load in higher gears. it will soon start doing that in the lower gears.

sick power for the mods

I've got probably around what you have for power, maybe a little less - still on the stocker, 21.5k

 

Yep... clutch will begin to slip around peak torque (WOT at ~3800rpm) in highest gear. Then more often as things get worse.

+1.

I'm tired of all the quarter-mile times and hard stress on the drivetrain. I'm going to do something that doesn't require me launching the car in order to be proud of the car.

Rub it in LOL..

I am hoping to have an ACT clutch installed next week. I want a smooth non noisy clutch with more holding power.

 

Shiv,

Thanks for the feedback and thanks for the power! Wonder if I will get some torque back with a new clutch?

See you next time!

This man would know for sure!

 

IE - when do ya get the IX?

 

A big thanks to Meanmud for organizing a great event, to TurboTrix for letting us take over all weekend, and to Shiv for flying 3000 miles to tune us.

Very happy with my results. Runinng stage Xede 1+ with pump gas and got 350hp and 300tq.

Thanks

Notice the lack of an additional +

This was done with the 9.8 hotside

How do ya like the difference??

 

HAHA!! I intentionally left off the extra "++".

The difference is very nice!! It's been a while since I've been scared of my own car.
