my first boosted race!!
 
well, i usually don't race anybody cause my ---- was always n/a, and honestly, i've never even been stopped next to a boosted car at a light. well, on my lunch break (on my way to the post office to ship some pr0n ;)) dude in a tsi pulls up to me i saw the front mount coming and was kind of hoping the light would turn green before he got there :-\ anyways, he looked like a tool, you know the kind of guy that's like 25 and thinks he's the ---- cause he go's to h.s. parties and gets all the girls ::) so he revs on me, now keep in mind, i have no waste gate at all! if i over rev my ----, i'll be hitting like 20 psi in a second! i don't have any fuel management either, just intercooled, retarded timing, 93 octane, and coolant temp sensor trick. so i basically have to work the gas pedal to keep it at or under 5 psi. i don't rev back i just give it some gas when the light turns green and wind first almost completely out (.63 exhaust barely spools in first), but when i shift to second, i got mad wheel spin and was instantly at 4 psi., so i had to watch it and was light on the gas, the whole time we were neck to neck. i wind second out slowly being careful as not to over boost, then i shift to third and my boost gauge jumps up to 7 psi, so i instantly let off the gas and he was gone :-\ i have no doubt in my mind that i would have spanked his ass with a wastegate cause i could have floored it without having to worry about over boosting. ----, we were neck to neck and i was just feathering the gas pedal. my tial 'style' wastegate will be here tomorrow afternoon according to the ups tracking number, and my uberdata chipped ecu is sitting at my house waiting for me when i get off, according to usps tracking number ;D i'll have timeslips tomorrow night ;D

Your a crazy mutha teg, I would never boost that much without fuel management.
Just make sure you get that ecu in before you go and do some ---- like that again.

yeah, no ----, especially on a low mileage b16a2 :-X anyways, it's actually running rich as ---- since i did the coolant temp trick, so i'm not worried about 5 psi at all, but when i saw it jump to 7, i pulled my foot off the gas fast as ----. ---- that ish! but yeah, the ecu should be sitting on my porch when i get home and then i'll be boosting about 8 or so until i get it tuned. i haven't heard any detonation once yet, i drive with the windows down and the radio off so i can listen for it, and my plugs aren't anything scary either, so i'm not too worried about it, but i think i'll quit while i'm ahead ;)

nice! that was an awesome story to read while coming into work. you would have spank his ass for sure. Take it easy for now though, remember you have no fuel management on you car. I bet it was scary as hell when you hit 7psi

yeah, 5 psi is pushing it to me with no fuel management, i mean, most people are scared to run more than 5 psi with an fmu, and at least that's some kind of fuel management, i have nothing except for a few little tricks to make her run rich. but when i saw 7 psi, i freaked out and realized i was being stupid and that ---- will jump up quick! i'm hooking up the uberdata and 450's tonight, so at least then i'll be able to boost about 10 psi, but i still won't be able to romp it until tomorrow when the wastegate gets here. i'm bringing some tools to work and put it in on my lunch break ;D

Don't lie kevin, just admit that you were on your way to the bath house and an automatic n/a talon beat your ass.

tool, that was pretty stupid to boost without. Hope your engine treats you the same as you treat it.

Maybe the guy in the DSM was a horrible driver? how fast can a honda be at 4psi or whatever you said? Don't b16a civics run high 15's? I dunno if 4 psi could make enough power to beat a mid 14 sec. TSi. im not trying to talk ---- though.

mR2, Dont hate just cuz hondas dont need 18psi to do something; ur not trying to talk ---- but your whole post was ---- talking, i only boost 5psi on my SINGLE cam and can hang with alot of ----, its not the fastest in the world but im happy, dont hate on people that are happy with their setup is all im saying, late.

Projekteg; im sure you will be handing asses to peeps, who knows maybe you will blow away and 18psi mr2 =D go honda!

MR2FasterThnU 05-10-2004 01:44 AM

Re:my first boosted race!!
 
I wasnt hating...Geez... we have to crank up the boost high to make power because we have pretty low compression, unlike a N/A motor.

let there be no confusion - I was hatin' on ya kevin!

sinner, you're about as gay as nigel shut the ---- up. if my engine blows, i'll build a better one, o.k. :-*


as far as my timeslip. it was the first time i had drag raced so my launches sucked! my stock clutch was toast, i was running 6lbs. on a rich/retarded tune. now, enought of the excuses ::)

reaction time - .6664
60ft. - 2.4802
1/8 et - 9.8169
1/8 mph - 77.67
1/4 et - 14.76
1/4 mph - 97.76

my clutch was slipping so bad! and my launches were shitty, but i beat 2 5.0's, an older z28, all n/a imports except for an ls/vtec rex. my highest trap was 100 mph, what do you think my times would be with a good clutch. i'm also going to be running 10 lbs. and will be tuned by the next time i race, i'm shooting for high 12's, what do ya think?

88crxSi 05-10-2004 09:17 AM

Re:my first boosted race!!
 
nice job kev! I bet with some practice and a good cluch you'll hit high 13's

y49crxsi 05-10-2004 11:33 AM

Re:my first boosted race!!
 
Yeah, i know a kid runnign a gsr 93 civic hb, and ran 13.7 at 99mph on drag radials. SO, i think , with 10 lbs, you should be low 13's with nice traction and a clutch.

YUP that 40 is going to taste great.....make ure its niuce and cold kev....hahaha

LSD Motorsports 05-12-2004 12:41 AM

Re:my first boosted race!!
 
i definately think u can hit low 13's.. maybe 12's with the slicks, but let me know when ur ready for that clutch, thats ur worst enemy right now let me tell u
