Re: Trance also went to the track yesterday
Hmmm, I just fixed a boosting problem I had noticed on the way home from the track last night. I had a split in the reducer off the turbo and it was only allowing me to boost 6-7lbs. So, these runs may have been 7lb. runs 
I'm not sure because I wasn't watching the boost guage on the track but on the way home I noticed it wasn't reading 10-11...She is now though. Next time, next time

Re: Trance also went to the track yesterday
Sweeeeeeeeeet. All the better at only 7psi. Now you know more and got 3 more lbs to play with. I never knew how much our cars suck at traction until today. I'm still on my stock clutch so the WG is at 4-6psi. Anyway, I would out 1st a little bit at 3/4 throttle then all of a sudden the wheel got really light in my hand and the car wanted to go everywhere. I was like "WTF?!?! At this low of boost and only at Hotrex throttle?!?!" Oh well, I guess when I get the 6-puck clutch and bump back up to 10psi then take my runs at the track you'll read this in my "Went to the track" thread. "Well, I managed 15.23 for my best time holding down 2.8sec 60 footers" LOL. Oh well, I guess it takes time to learn how to drive these things. Am I right?

Re: Trance also went to the track yesterday
Bah you guy's havn't even seen pictures of it. The charge pipes aren't too pretty. I think I painted them with some regular house paint or something. haha it's just flaking off But yeah I'll definately look into poly mounts jago. I'm still on the stockers and they sure seem to flex alot.

Re: Trance also went to the track yesterday
I'm running an ls with a T25 @10psi and pulled 13.6 @100 mph with worn 225 proxies and still had a hard time getting traction. my best 60 foot was 1.88. I too was running 20psi. To much I guess.

Re: Trance also went to the track yesterday
Definately appreciate the advice and help. I have a few more months before I go back to the track so I will certainly take these things into consideration for next time.
