awake now and ready to race!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 5pm laddies!


yesterday was a 24hr day! I cannot say enough goods things about the staff @ GST Motorsports. I can't believe we got it all done!!!!!!!!!

 

Police Drags Now Biotches!

 

wow, car is slower now. Will get a time slip tommorw. Cop said I was trapping @ 94mph and I know I was doing 1.6s. I am so ready to throw in the towel. I played witht eh boost controller and got a tad more power. It's def not pulling hard and I was running 4 gallons of 104 with 2 gallons of 91. hit 1.4 bar as my highest. Going to log and get an actual time slip tomorrow. Even the sub was out!

 

It is because of the front mount turbo lag. Your WHP and WTQ are higher, but it takes longer to hit and doesn't pull as hard as a larger turbo would once you get there. Same thing I am dealing with...which is why I am considering going back to a top mount until I get my PPGs and a bigger turbo.

In my limited experience with a front mount on a VF-39, it smooths out the torque curve. You may get a little higher numbers, but since it takes a little while to "build", you dont really notice it like you would with a top mount. This may be why it feels it isn't pulling as hard according to the butt dyno

Also (I should have mentioned this earlier) from what I have learned, race gas really needs to be tuned for. Sure you can increase the boost, but that is not all of what is going on. I have actually been told (by very informed sources) that running too much race gas untuned can be WORSE than running 91 or 93. The race gas has a higher flash point, so to get the most out of it other things to be adjusted.

Limited amounts mixed to raise the octane and provide a knock barrier and crap gas protection should be OK.

Hopefully we can get some real details from an expert

Oh by the way, I didn't get my car back until 8 LOL. I should be able to make it on Thursday tho

 

thnkx for the info. Drags today where you get timed. Hopefully you can make it. Going to go put my slotted rotors on now.
