Default 1st Time @ the track with Turbo Kit

Here is the break down:

60' 2.022
330 5.518
1/8 8.419
mph 85.27
1000 10.915

1/4 13.038
mph 106.28

I had only 2 runs on what Engishtown called their busiest Wed. night of the season. I knew that I'm only going to have 2 runs so I left it in 4wd cause the track was cold and I didn't want to risk it. The pig weight in @ 6090 lbs. I just left my tuners a couple of hours before this run where it put down 465hp/570tq on a Mustang dyno. I was running 8 psi on meth cause my F**kin BAP was not working above 7 psi. Hoping to go back to the track soon once I get this BAP squared away. Runs were done on 93 oct, 7/8 of a tank of gas, No air filter ( I picked up almost 2mph with the air filter off), 80lbs of tools and crap in the back seat(couldnt leave it at the track cause I was alone. Heard stories of guys leaving their tools at this track unattended and their stuff got stolen). Next time I'll try going a little lighter. Hopefully I'll get the BAP in so I can run 10+ psi. I quess that run I had against that new Audi S6 last week got my hopes up high. No big deal. I never built this truck for any records. I just wanted a fun to drive 12 sec truck. I know with a little bit of tuning and some weight loss (1 qt of TurboLax the day before ) will get me close to 12.5. Heck who knows.... maybe with 2 qts of TurboLax I might even see 11's

Nice. That's moving pretty good for that weight. Shed a little weight and get the boost up a little more and you have mid 12's no problem

8 psi and a heavy truck. Fix the couple little quirks and turn the boost up and he will have some killer times

Its tough to run any good #'s @ 3 tons unless your making alot more to the wheels. This is a full weight street truck, its anything but raceweight.

Yeah you need to get the weight down! Keep in mind it was your first time out, there is much more to come! My first time was 9.64. My last time was 7.64 with only a converter and gear change, upped boost from 5.5 to 8.5, cold weather and just a little tuning. GREAT TIMES!!!

I agree, just didn't realize ecsb trucks were so heavy. The weight is a *****...I was amazed after switching from an avalanche to a rcsb.

I know it got more in it and needs a diet. Like I said fellas I'm not worried. Its fun and safe . I'll mess with it more in the near future once I get a Kenne Bell BAP in.
