SignUp Now!Yep. I'm sure. :biggrin:I like the way it seems to work Donnie and LMAO to some of the "extras" you included. You sure no animals weren't hert this time? LOL
I do use a couple very basic MSD delay boxes. One box is a simple two channel that has been discontinued. I'm using one channel on that box. That box controls the timing for the shut off of the primary system. I have the fuel side stay on for .2 sec after the nitrous side shuts down to allow for blowdown of the nitrous side.Donnie, Do you use a delay box in your car , if so does it have a SLE (starting line enhancer) on it. That is where I see your system being absolutly killer. Mike![]()
Thanks Jeremy. I like to think that people enjoy following my adventures.This is one of the most interesting ,out of the box thinking ideas that I have seen in a long time. Keep up the good work and keep us posted. Thanks for making Turbo Buicks interesting again!!![]()
I'm sort of doing the same deal. The torque converter restricts how high the engine can rpm at WOT due to the low stall when off the nitrous (3200 rpm). So I stage, set the TB and go WOT. The car can sit there for a very long time at only 3200 stall. On a 3 amber tree, I release the transbrake button on the 1st amber and as soon as I release the button, the nitrous turns on. The transbrake release is on a timer that is adjustable, so if I'm targeting a particular rpm and map that I want to take off with, I put the needed amount of time into the TB release delay. The thing is, if I'm looking for the best reaction time, I have to use 1.00 second as my TB delay time. Presently, that is not enough time to build enough rpm and map for a bitchin launch.I use a Mega 450 delay box. One of its functions is the SLE timer , also reffered to as autostart. This is a timer within the box that will turn on at preset time before the transbrake releases. On my car obviously you cant go full throttle on the transbrake waiting for the tree to count down. I have an air cylinder inline on the throttle cable. When I stage and set the transbrake the air cylinder fully extends and basically the gas pedal goes to the floor and I hold it on the floor but the engine is ideling or just above idle. I set the SLE timer to pull that cylinder/throttle open at say .2 before the transbrake releases. This will result in the engine accelerating to a given rpm at the release of the brake. More time will allow more rpm etc. I can see you using this basic process to start your antilag system and have the motor at full throttle and a given rpm however long you desire before the brake releases every run!! Possibilities are endless!! Cool part is you could bracket race with it , spot a car 2-3 seconds and leave at an exact rpm everytime. Mke![]()
Ah Yes. I see how that could work. As long as you're always the second person leaving the line.Im looking more at how this could be used in a bracket racing application where they use a cross talk tree and and I might be spotting a car by 2 seconds. thats where that SLE works great. You release the brake button on the first amber , then the delay box would apply the throttle and antilag system at precisely the same monent before release of the transbrake , no matter what the spot.
