i ran my baby tonight. i just did a block swap on my 86 base 5spd. i got a cold air extension with cone filter, no emmisions, racepipe, 2.25 in pipe to a single muffler,electirc fan,advanced timing. best was 14.6 at 92. what other easy mods can i do to run faster???

 

3" exhaust from the turbo back brought me from 14.4 to 14.01 and a 13.96 every now and then. Ice the crap out of your intercooler. my 87TII did 15.1 and then i iced the crap out of it and got a 14.7 after 30 mins of icing. Cheap.....real Cheap

 

ummm is you car N/A or Turbo, cus if its an N/A Thsoe are prety damn impresive times.


If its a turbo, swap out that exhaust for a 3" pipe.

if it NA, umm run higher octane gas to go with that advanced timing. I would be VERY carefull with advancing the timing on your own.

Advcance timing is good for low to mid, but at hiher RPS its not safe.

 

he said 86 base, so im assuming its an N/A, N/A POWER WOOHOO good job man, i gotta get to the track and see what i can run,

 

hey anderson, that g-tech time has a really high MPH number, 95.5 is usually like a 14.2 1/4, his 14.6 was at 92mph

 

86 BASE!

Whoa those are some NICE times... that's faster than a stock 200hp 89-91 TII

Is your engine ported? Or do you shift mad quick?

With my mods I'm in the mid-high 15's... damned if i could ever break into 14.xx

 

agent, the times arent exact and such. his car just might just accel harder at speed than at start. the guy you beat off the line and then you see catching up in your rearview mirror

 

Well thats the only down side of the G-Tech. The Times are accurate, if you d othem on a good road, but the MPH always seem to be about 5 higher than what they should be. Everyone I know with a G-Tech notices the same.

Also remember that at the track, the MPH is an Estimate, not the exact.

I only whish I could have gotten a good lauch when I went to the track. I had some SERIOUS wheel hop, and when I finaly griped, I wasnt inven in a good RPM cus I let of the gas a litle to stop the whell hop, so I only managed a 16.4 with liek a 2.7 60' LOL

I'm sure if I would have got a good lauch I would have gotten that 15.1 or something close to it.
