omg finally had a semi good trip to the track
well the racecar has been back togeather for about a week now and i finally got it down the track in one piece had a best time of 11.53@118mph this was at 14lbs had some trouble with my hmt ball spring mbc seems someone had it apart and forgot to put the spring back in ::) luckly Josh was able to find someone with a clicky style pen(thanks josh's friend) but unfortunatly the spring didnt have quite the tension need to reach 18-20lbs and some retunning is inorder since the new intercooler is flowing a bit more air and the are a few dead spot in the top end.

Good to hear. How much better of a time are you looking for once completely set-up?

Re:omg finally had a semi good trip to the track
when will you break down and buy a hallman pro MBC to go along with that nice fancy one piece fiberglass hood?
|
Re:omg finally had a semi good trip to the track
I thought he already had a one piece fiberglass hood.

Re:omg finally had a semi good trip to the track
---- thats still an awsome time on only 14 pounds
why havnt you taken the car to the track more often? you got some special things goin on that your not tellin us |
Re:omg finally had a semi good trip to the track
Nice Beau. Think you can get a high 10 second pass in running at full boost? I think you might be able to get there if you don't run into any problems.

Re:omg finally had a semi good trip to the track

Re:omg finally had a semi good trip to the track
hey I saw you down there. I had three of those sprins in my car. I just got them from homedepot about a month ago and never finish the diy mbc. I saw Josh too, but he never mentioned anything about that, or I would have gave you one. I guess next time ill stop by and say whats up. 98ctr
