I think the problem is the bottom end. It's only a D15B7. 8500 is a good way to mess up your head too. Then again you're going B and don't care so whatever. I don't think those times are really that bad at all. Considering the turbo size, tires, motor, tune, etc. So good job.

this one took a beating with the 8500 rpms when it was NA. and then it was just a little too advance. and i still dont know exactly what happened. it might have spiked, as i was having issues with my wastegate. who knows. it held fine on the base tune. once we advanced the timing, it came on so much stronger. but no detonation. just made a bit too much power on a block that had already had the **** revved out of it.

2 missed shifts on the gay ebay chip, limited 9200... = 8500 RPMS

then i would rev it daily to 7000-7200

limiter at the track was like 6800 or so.

stock fuel cut on the b7 is what like 6400 or 6800 ? i think it just took too much abuse, but thats the purpose of the D

yeah that spinning tire pass was TERRIBLE. i wasnt used to spinning the tires, and shifted WAYY to early out of second, dropped to like 3500-4000 rpms. it was only my second time at the track. and the first time was the mini me NA ran a 16.1 with full stock exhaust, so it wasnt that complicated to drive. i definetly have tons of room for improvement just in drving my car alone.

as far as hotrex goes...i was going to post up that vid of him and the gsr turbo knstall where they are creaming their pants over 5 psi...but most of the HMT vid links are down.

stock LS swap, and then an LS-vtec build are in teh works

Yeah its at NYIRP. What do you drive? were you there?
No, I wasn't there. I haven't been there for a few years. I just recognised it from the pics. This is the current state of my car

I don't know if you heard about the 8 car pile up on the 90 by the blue water tower last July. Well, I was car 7 of 8. I stopped just before hitting the car in front of me, but a lady in an astro van hit me and smashed me into the car in front of me. Insurance totaled it out and I bought it back. I've pulled the front end out as best I can, but I need a new radiator support to determine exactly how much more I need to as mine was fairly well mangled. Right now I'm driving a 97 2.5L Acura TL, but I won't be taking it to the track any time soon
