Probably not much air getting trapped given that badass diffuser under there.

Yes i am still on the old school JB 6262. Im thinking about upgrading it to a 6466 tho.

On another note, LOOKS like i am going to the Shift-S3ctor 1/2 mile event in Colorado end of June!

Hell ya

Thinner air could give you a higher MPH

Some of the fastest production car records are set by running at highest mid-day temps, and above sea level for lower wind resistance.

Thinner air also means less power....

Myles, I got your PM. I'm not ignoring you. Just been super busy. I hope to get back to you tonight.

The beauty of racing is that usually if that you usually find the money you need whether it be for an event or a part.

I actually am making arrangements to cancel of of my events in june just to budget the trip out to this event.... at this point its looking like 70% chance of logistically being able to make it.

Looks like a new turbo is going on the car, make a little more power and doing a Final drive. Going to the 4.266, should let me pass the 190 mark at about 9300rpm

I went with an M-Factory Final drive, at least pretty sure it is. James@synchrotech got it for me!

Here's a datalog from my 187mph pull. Hondata Traction control doing its thing pulling timing. Im pretty sure 4th gear was just a bump in the road.



Also, it was 80+ degrees out that day and IAT's went from 114 to 97 deg by the end of the run. Good FMIC FTW.

Would have been nice to see you hit 190 with the same turbo / trans just picking away at the MPH. But kudos for change I suppose

Looks exactly like a bump in the road in 4th.

You're on e-85, correct? That would explain the lowering IAT's and ECT.
Ever monitor EGT's?

I run E98, but idk if really would show up on the IAT's being its still on the stock IAT sensor. Which is surprising because it normally reads fairly slow doesn't it? It actually dropping almost 20 degrees is not so bad.

I am not monitoring EGT's but our Evo that was there did, im sure his are similar to mine. 2.2L, 7175 turbo 50psi in 3/45th gear LOL.
