Went consistant 12.70's last night (.70,.73,.72,.70) @ 111-111.8mph... All on terrible 2.0-2.1 60fts

All these passes were made on 8psi. It made absolutely no difference in 60ft times leaving off the footbrake or transbrake.



I've done some digging and it'll be back on the track next weekend with some new parts.

 

Damn I thought you would have been faster than that even with those bad 60s

 

Still a ton left in it tuning wise.... And on low boost, going back to the track with more pressure this week and see what it does... this motor wasn't built for 8psi ;-)

 

How much boost are you leaving on? Is it hooking?

 

Have you messed with your suspension anymore. I remember you were having problems

 

I took the longbars off and added a light overload spring back into the leaf pack. I'm swapping some front suspension stuff around this week and turning up the boost and going back. It looked and felt like it was transferring weight but after really thinking about it I believe the ***-end is just diving and the front is not lifting at all and that's what I need. I need this thing stood up digging out of the hole. Right now it just drives away from the yellow lights just like any other red light

Kyle, I was leaving on full boost (8psi) off the transbrake. I've been told by a couple reputable turbo people that its not good thing to launch with the wastegate open. It kills tq because it disrupts exhaust velocity way too much which makes sense why it feels like it has ZERO ***** out of the gate. I'm going to turn it up to about 12psi and try leaving just before the wastegate starts to open, I'm thinking that'll be 9ish #'s... Probably try leaving on 8 again. Once this thing is rolling its all good, were off to the races, its that first 100ish feet that are killing me.

 

i know what ya need
some of that good ole laughing gas!

 

It could be worse. I cut a 2.7x 60' today.

 

I'm trying not to have to spray it outta the hole or at all for that matter. I've got enough converter and spool speed not to have to.

 

thats it????
