That's good for a mid 11 timeslip. Congrats

 

[Captain Mark]

Thanks, it's getting there thanks to a lot of good advice from you good folks.

Wow thats movin for 21 PSI. That equals 115-116 in the 1/4 and approx 11.7's assumming the run stayed the same.

Congrats.

I'm gonna have to up my anny a bit.. too many of you guys are getting way too close

 

[Captain Mark]

....hmmm......you think I could turn that boost up with one of those Razor alky kits?

You're kit is on my wish list bro! A little at a time, you know how it is.

 

[Razor]

I know brother.. The tranny and converter were a setback..

Glad things are moving in the rite direction...

Hows it feel to be hooked These cars are absolutely awesome

Hey shhh.. he'll be faster than both of us



Well I'll admit my car runs 21 PSI as well.. thats what my stock boost guage reads

I dont know about you but the faster I got the harder it got to go faster. I think Mark is right there at the fun factor limit as far as parts go. Tunning and tweaking is basically free. After that it will be big bucks to get another half second out of her.
I really like the results he's getting out of the GT turbo. Some guys arent really seeing much from going to one and other guys are having real nice results with them. I just picked up a used turbonetics T66. All said and done I went from a T63E to a T66 for $20 out of my pocket. I wish I could send this turbo in some where and get a GT turbine wheel put on it. Ever since I blew my cross over pipe off I've been a little paranoid about back pressure!

Are you boys running a bigger intercooler? Some of the GN boys were telling me at the track the other night I should get a bigger intercooler, it would be worth 2 or 3 tenths. I know there are other things I could do to pick up 2 or 3 tenths, but I was wondering what ya'lls opinion is about that.

Some of this stuff is on my wish list, some of it is tuning.

Some of it is just being a sissy! It's like my Daddy used to say.....
"If you're scared, go get under the bed"

I started seeing knock when I would go past 21 lbs, that's why I backed her down some. Directscan would tell me what my injectors are doing....may need bigger ones.

My boy down here is gonna burn me a 26 degree timing chip that should be good for a couple of tenths. We'll see.

May I quote Razor "These cars are absolutely awesome "

You can't slap the smile off my face at the track now!

My car didnt like any thing over 22 degrees timing with the old IC. I ran 21 degrees with the liquid IC and tried 23 on the street and it seamed to like it but nevr got a shot at testing more timing at the track.
IC... I only had one trip to the track with my car running right. This year I should get 3 or 4 trips to the track in and get it dialed in.

Stock IC checking in... went 98.4 in the 1/8 crossing the traps at 20 degrees with 24 PSI boost..

I'm upping it to 26 this week.. if I can get out to the track. I want 100 in the 1/8
