ran my car at the track last night, and i got CRAZY wheel hop.... It knocked my header off of my resonator (on w/ clamps ) and i was running open header down the rest of the track. Now the idle is really sketchy (REALLY LOW 500) and the car is running really rich. Plugs r black, smells like gasoline, wasted 1/4 tank on 20 miles... its running like absolute ****

Im running p28 w/ a basemap if that matters

my setup: jdm h22a, no balance shafts, i/h/e/clutch/flywhee/ zex 75 shot dry

 

did it tear the o2 sensor wires?

Yeah, it probably f'ed up the O2 sensor....

 

if the o2 is fubar'd might as well get an o2 simulator for a replacement.
never gotta worry about an o2 sensor again after buying a simulator.

 

welli havent started it up yet but here is the damage thus far:

-Sheared vtec solenoid plug (Coil came loose and smashed it)
-Map sensor vacuum disconnected (HOPEFULLY PROBLEM)
-Fouled Spark plugs
-Loosened my radiator DRAIN!?!?! it was leaking coolant i thought the motor was toast...

 

what are you doing to compensate for that 75 dry shot your running?? u should consider using a wet shot.

maybe your ecu is overcompensating cause its recognizing the nitrous, so its injecting extra fuel?

p.s. what was your time??

p.s.s. I dont know why people get so much wheel hop. are you just dumping the clutch off the line? i normally get NO wheel hop what-so-ever.

 

u need to stage that nitrous or put in an rpm activated solenoid,that's WAAAAY too many traction issues at launch man.

and bolt your header up properly next time

 

get your car fixed and tune your car. wtf are thinking running a 75 shot on a basemap

i;m surprised you managed to mess up all that from wheel hop, when there's a really quick fix to wheel hop which you can engage during the launch. let off the gas

fixed

 

damn man hope you get it fixed

 

ok first of all, i did not spray nitrous that run.


-i have a msd window switch,i just gotta get a relay and finish wiring it in...


-i retarded the timing, and i'm running bkr7es plugs.

-I usually never have wheel hop, but the NRG engine damper fucked mad **** up... I ran a 2.1 60 foot that run.

 

the wheel hop is from good grip cold tires, spinning way to fast to get a good hold. Stop jaming the gas off the line and maybe you can clean up your take off and lower your 1/4 mile and 60' times.

the object in draging is to not spin your tires off the launch.
you wanna do a burn out go in a parking lot.

but save the racing for the track, where peeling out isn't the impressive goal to be obtained!
