thought i'd post up some 2012 progress as i'm trying to get this thing dialed in. I finally have everything how I want it and the car is running great just need to dial in this short track to drop the et's.

some things changed up this year
PTE 66mm wastegate
c02 boost control on msd 7562
fresh PTE 6768
fresh dogbox rebuild
new competition clutch twin disc





Testing the other night at our local track. this was still on the hondata bbg on c02 no 7562 hooked up yet.

put a little too much boost in first gear on this pass and had to let off to get it to stop. just trying different things to try and get it to 60' and 330' decent. 1.7 60' and 4.53 330'. not good but hoping to get it down soon.

 

Looks like you had too much air in the front tires. Air them down a bit so they have a chance to bite.

Good to see this car back. Always liked it.

 

agree maybe a little bit much but apart from that a nice clean run

 

Good to see you back out there homie! Good luck this year.

 

Good luck this season! I wish I could have seen this thing run at the Columbus OH, IFO but I think you guys ran into some issues just before I got there.

 

Looking very Nice..

 

One of my favorites, any current engine bay shots?

 

Yeah air pressure was up a bit. 7.5psi it bogged on the pass before so I tried higher rpm/more boost and more tire psi and it was too much. It's hard to get these things out of the hole good every time I just need to find that sweet spot.

I have a few engine shots I'll try to post up tonight.

 

yeah i've been trying a lot of different parts/setups over the last few years. had a lot of issues but a lot of data to know what and what not to do. finally think i have it setup how i want it just needs some short track dialing in.

here's a bay shot

 

first 9 sec pass? long time coming always liked this build, hopefly run in to you some day perhaps norwalk

 

it's been a few high 9 sec passes but the short track isn't there. I know what it will do but getting it there has been my trouble. I should be at norwalk in a few weeks

 

nice to see you havent gave up man.

i just finally got me a 1.61 60 myself unfortunately the dam oil pump broke and i spun every rid bearing lol

oh well live ane learn huh

 

how are the cams working out for you?

 

cams are great stg 2's they made quite a bit of midrange and top end. picked up quite a bit of torque down low also. very glad I went with them thanks.now if i can put that power to use

 

K20 or K24?

-Marquis
-KMOD

 

k20

 

car looks good. glad to see it back out

 

a little example of what i'm dealing with off the line bog. this was a 10.1@149 pass with boost in 3rd and 4th around 25psi

Paul I have been meaning to ask, what exactly is that being turned on passenger side, almost looks like a nitrous bottle...

 

Co2 for boost control.

Do you have any hints on why the car is bogging badly off the line?

 

it's in the launch/boost leaving the line. i think i'm leaving on too much rpm and not enough boost up to it. got some tips from someone very helpfull to me on what to do next time out and i'm going to try that. vss jumps up to 40mph right off the leave and then falls back down so it's spinning right at first but not enough boost to keep the momentum going which is absolutely killing my short track times

 

need some Prayoonto help?

 

always looking for a proffesionals opinion. I was hoping to make it up to a couple races this year but my truck is down for a while so it's hard to tell
