Nothin' like a good movie!
Here are a couple of clips from last week at the drags.
I'm going to go out today and get my 100 MPH sticker. I spent all week tuning. Should be able to run low 13's @ 105 MPH.

do you mean your running one 1 rotor?

 

No, I have 60 PSI on the rear rotor and 90 PSI in the front.
I might try the ATF treatment on it next week to see if it's just a stuck seal.

 

In that case you might have a flat apex spring on one side on the rotor or even a cracked corner seal

at least it hasnt broken a apex seal yet

but I wouldnt wait till it does to overhaul the engine
cheap way would be to get the na gasket set
I think powerhouse has the best price on them
a new set on springs n apex
93 corner springs,new corner seals
new oil seals
new side seals n springs
dont mind the bearings unless there pretty worn
and that should be less then $600

 

Yeah... You convinced me! I have 2 old 13B's out in my garage. I have already started tearing one of them apart.
I think I will send it off to have it ported. I am also going to use high performance parts on this one. Think I will build a monster!!!

 

you willing to part with one of those 13b motors?

 

Hey RXTASY, what's that song playing in the second video?

 

I don't know? I was wondering the same thing?

Sorry. I am going to use them for parts. I'm sure if you asked my wife, she would sell you one!!

 

not a problem.
hey you think we might be able to call a tech day also
there are some wierd things this car of mine is doing that I dont understand.
surging. idle, and noises.

 

Oh Tracie!!!
Sure! Call me!
We will get that little N/A purring like a kitten!

 

i just realized that you are a member of the treasure valley club. that 13.7 was at firebird?

 

Yep.... That was at Firebird.
We will all be out there Sept. 28th. for the Import Survival Series.
I will email you our next meeting time.

 

That is TOOL !! you guys should be ashamed of yourself for not knowing who the greates band in the world is!!!
BTW my user ID "stinkfist" Is the name of one of their songs off of Aenima.
Sorry I'm just a BIG TOOL fan.



Mike

 

That can be misconstrued six ways to Sunday... their latest effort sucks a BIG TOOL.

 

LOL. yeah I guess I should have picked my words better.

Horokito, your right. That is probably my least favorite song on the album. But it's still a good song.


Mike

 

Yeah when we go out on the 28th or whatever i'll take my n/a out to see what she can do b4 i put the haltech, 13bt, fmic, upgraded turbo etc in. should be pretty fun, rxtasy will get his 100 mph sticker, and i'll at least get a time slip.
Jason

 

Next time you should play Cake's "the distance" http://www.cakemusic.com/music.html or the Offspring's "Bad Habit" http://www.cdnow.com/cgi-bin/mserver...itemid=309817.

 

Actually we didnt insert that into the movie the guys at the drag races had it on the loudspeakers. kinda weird huh
jason

 

Jason, You on for the 28th.?
We will make some more drag vids!

 

Call me a jerk, but those times are a little fishy. Even with your full mods, you are only getting 275RWHP?

Before my motor blew on the dyno, I was getting 228RWHP @7psi with only these few mods..

I suspect I'll be close to 275RWHP when they turn the boost up to 10-12psi and rebuild the motor..

-M

 

Jerk! Not really.....
I really don't know what you are trying to say?
What's fishy about an actual video? You don't believe what you see?
I'm not one to overinflate my HP.
Actually now, according to the old G-Tech, I'm at 250 RWHP. That should put me in the mid to low 13's. That's the only thing I have to go by.
In the near future, I'm going to put in a rebuild by Pineapple that will be ported along with a Haltech. Hopefully then I will be around 400 RWHP.

 

Sorry for the paraniodness. What I meant to say is that the HP numbers seem fishy.

In your advertisement, you stated that you got 275RWHP at 12.8. If this is so, then running 250RWHP shouldn't put you a whole second behind. Its only 25HP more.

Either that, or you're running way lower than 250RWHP when you ran that 13.7.

I suspect that with 250RWHP, you should be doing low 13s.
