Going to the track tomorrow. nasty misfires fixed. Turbo4life is a nog
 
i had my brother, turbo4life, the O0, changed my head a while back and long story short he cut a few corners and the timing was off among other things. So with that fixed i'm ready to roll out. currently running 14psi w/ 450's. Gonna steal my bro's road racing slicks as compensation, just wondering what would be the ideal pressure for the tires. They are 205/50 15's

also, i have a home made traction bar and ebay springs w/ dead stock shocks if that means anything.

any predictions?

45 psi in the tires.
they are made for road racing so you want some high pressure in them. ---- maybe even 50+psi

best ET 14.6
best mph 103
best 60ft 2.4

first run was the fastest of the day even with no traction in second. when i warmed the slicks up better, i couldn't get it into 3rd on the last run.
would have gotten the trophy if i beat an 11 second corvette.

vids tomorrow.

shitty times, what psi were you running the slicks at?

enikolayev 11-20-2008 11:43 AM

Re: Going to the track tomorrow. nasty misfires fixed. Turbo4life is a nog
 
20. i had less traction than i do on the street with regular tires :S

talked with some of the drivers and they said the track was very slick too

I wish there was a track closer to me, and that I coudl run my car without having to tow it home :-[

Re: Going to the track tomorrow. nasty misfires fixed. Turbo4life is a nog
 
i posted the setup before but here it is again:

D16Y8 w/ h-beam rods and std bore vitara pistons
China t3/t4 mani and wg combo
greddy intercooler/piping/bov
3" exhaust w/ summit turbo muffler
14 ps w/i 450's 12.7 AFR at the top, injectors are maxed :l

next week when i'm not driving the car, i'll try to retune with ~20 psi and the 900cc injectors i have. hopefully tuning with them will go better this time since the timing is fixed.

btw don't people usually run 13's with a 103 mph? there was another hatch at the track that ran a 14.3@93

also, downloading software to convert the videos, should be up in a few hours. I dont think you guys would wanna download 1080p video 3 Gb for a couple of minutes.

lock-pop! 11-20-2008 06:39 PM

Re: Going to the track tomorrow. nasty misfires fixed. Turbo4life is a nog
 
103 mph - should be around low to mid 13s

my times in the evo were 13.3 @ 104 with a 2.0 60' and 104 deg weather....

300 miles on it. thats how you break in a motor.. lol

vids

http://rapidshare.com/files/165829284/first_run.avi
or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxnT7fg7puU first run 14.6@103 lots o wheelspin

http://rapidshare.com/files/165830041/second.avi 14.7@102 missed second

http://rapidshare.com/files/16583364...missed_3rd.avi missed 3rd this time

http://rapidshare.com/files/16583551..._3rd_again.avi need new tranny (longer vid w/ 2 runs and some other cars)

in a few, the vids will be finished processing on youtube. they are all there also, if that's more convenient. rapidshare are better quality.

it seems that whenever i got a better launch, my tranny would refuse to shift. There is no more synchro left on 3rd gear. I have to double clutch to prevent grinding.

My last motor was at the track within 100 miles of its last rebuild. Put a couple heat cycles in it to seat the rings and your good to go. If its gonna blow, its gonna blow.

alignment helps with the tire spin.

i got alignment done 2 months ago. but then again it was done by a ukranian...

some new struts will help a good bit, my struts on my crx were blown out and i was running mid 14's at like 102-103 mph with horrible 60 fts. i never went back to the track after i installed new struts but there was one hell of a noticeable difference in traction and reduced wheel hop with the new struts. just get the cheapie kyb agx's they are pimp ----!

I am planning on getting new shocks, mine are pretty much dead. never thought suspension could make that much of a difference. Thanks for the advice.
