Guys, I put a converter in my Tsm car that was way to tight to spool, and after messing with Kevin B at the track and his E85 adventure he talked me into doing a test between race gas and e85. Here is were it all started.
We brought my car up on the pipe with race fuel and the best we could get was 18 sec to spool. We cleaned the lines out of race fuel and put 5 gallons of e85, changed the injecter sizes from 95lbs to 70lbs and tried again. Just changing the fuel we cut the spoll time in half, and messed with the tune alittle and got it to 6 sec spool time.
With not enough time till the bpg to tune the car I went back to race fuel and was having alot of trouble to get it on the pipe so I changed back to e85 yesterday. I took the car to lonnie lasst night for some help on the spool up again, changed to 160lb injectors, changed the injecter size in my gen 7 to 125lbs, took 2* of timming out from 20lbs of boost and went to the track.
All Passes were at 21* of timing, 71hpq and tsm legal
1. 10.50 @ 130.15 24lbs of boost 1.52 60ft
2. 10.60 @ 136.63 27lbs of boost 1.82 60ft spun real bad
3. 10.06 @ 137.61 27lbs of boost 1.62 60ft spun
4. 9.67 @ 138.71 29lb in first and second 29ib in third 1.38 60ft spun after 60 ft when full boost hit
5. pushed a intake gasket
I do not do alot of tuning on the car, I leave that up to Lonnie And Kevin, But I think I did OK today. I hope to get some more passes in before Bpg to keep up.
