My first visit with intake/exhaust(2.5 with a restrictive resonator) was a 15.0@97

My second visit with same mods plus weight reduction and dr's was 14.1@99

Now for todays times..Well with intake, header, exhaust, velocity stack, vafc and a computer( that the vafc is being used to richen it up).

I need to drop the pressure in the dr's some more and get the launch down.

 

get some slicks and your ET's will go down so much. and you will never wanna go on radials again.
your 60ft's are terrible you need to get those down.

 

No know they are.. already look for some fat fives to put some slicks on.
I'm trying to see what I can do on radials. Next visit less air pressure and a burn out to heat them up.

 

are you heating them up in 1st or 2nd?
best 60ft i did on radials was 2.2 and ran 12.7
best on slicks 60ft is 1.7 and ran 12.1 but fastest et is 11.9
and how well are you heating the tires?

 

Guess I wasn't heating them up enough. Going to lower the pressure and heat them alot next go around.

 

heat them in 2nd. tires will heat up much faster and more

 

Thanks I will try that next time

 

2nd or 3rd gear burnout, 12psi in the radials, preload and launch at 6500rpm or so. On my 3rd pass in a car I've never driven before, I did a 1.94 60' on radials which I was happy with because prior to preloading, I couldn't anything better than a 2.0 60'. 13.50 @ 101mph. so the power level is similiar.

 

Thanks for the advice

 

I can get consistent 1.9's and 1.8's on BFG's. It's all in heating them up in 2nd gear and some footwork off the line and you will see the ETs' go down. I must say if you feel the car wheel hop, just push the clutch in unless you like buying and swapping transmissions.

 

If this m2b4 breaks a h2b setup is going back in.

 

Spinning FTL!

Learn to drive and run low 13's.
Hell, i ran 13.3@103mph in a EJ on 3 year old worn out circuitracing semi's wich where ditched by a local raceteam as worn down

 

what is your setup to the OP?
Engine/trans, tires, and suspension

my suspension suck on my hatch, and thats something that i currently want to work on. So putting in the clutch is better than letting off the gas and then getting back into it? My best was 13.9 @103 on some 185/60R14 all season tires w/ a 2.3 60' Wheel hopping like no other and geting in and out of the gas...

 

H22 with bolt ons, m2b4 tranny.... tein springs.. tires are 225/50/15 bfg dr's mounted on some fat fives. The rear sprinted need to be stiffer that is a definate.
