We decided to head up to Renegade Raceway last night for a test n tune. It was the first time we've ran any more boost than just off the wastegate springs. Boost was set to 290kpa by the top of second.... we were hoping to get some datalogs and get the boost turned up by the end of the night but because there was only like 8 cars at the track they shut it down and we only got two passes.

Right off the trailer the car went 9.80 at 151 mph. Then we just came back to the trailer and added ice to the intercooler and ran again to a 9.58 at 154. We were adding fuel when the track called it a night.

Overall we're happy with the results at that boost level and we are hoping for a good showing at IFO on the 27th. The car seems really stable at speed although we need some better brakepads for sure! I think the front splitter is really functional and adds quite a bit of stability. Two rivets ripped out of the front splitter brace right in the middle so we know it's doing what it is supposed to!

 

Nice!

 

Any pics or videos? What's the setup if you don't mind sharing?

 

I'll post the in-car video shortly, but we don't have any footage from outside the car.

Here are some pictures of the splitter and what kind of downforce it appears to be creating. The center-most two rivets were completely ripped out after the second pass and the center-most four rivets all dimpled the splitter. They weren't that way before the passes. I like to think that the splitter is helping the car feel so stable, it's effortless driving the car straight. I'm curious to see how the car feels with another 30mph!

Bottom of the splitter


Here you can see the two rivets that ripped out and the two that are still in but dimpled the splitter:

Splitter from the top:


The way the front bumper is shaped it is perfectly vertical in the center (where the rivets ripped out or dimpled the splitter) and then it lays back as you go around the sides. It's interesting to see the effect on the splitter after only two passes and 150 ish mph.

It even bent the nose down a bit:

 

nice man!! how many PSI do you eventually plan to run

 

That is awesome Reid!

 

Good ****...didn't realize you had this beast together already!

 

Sounds great man, can't wait to see this thing in action.

 

moore boost!!!

 

what is the car setup for? pics? weight>?

 

Damn nice guys congrats at only 2 passes on higher boost too. about what power level is it at on 28psi? what are you using for boost control?

 

congrats

 

Good job guys, see you in sac.

 

Damn, I knew there was a reason I wanted to go to the track yesterday! Hopefully I get to make it to IFO

 

For sure

nice good job can't wait to see it with the boost turned up.

 

Very nice Reid, where was my update? I might just have to tune the crx this weekend now

 

Impressive. Glad to see another H2B going fast. That splitter was doing work on the top end. Takes some serious force to do that. I know you said you had done some additional welding and clearance work on the block for larger axles, what axles are you running currently?
