First time at the drag strip.
 
I'm satisfied with my time.

1/4 13.83
0-60 2.26
speed 155 km/h (ca 96 mph)

My only mods are:

3" DP, pettit 3" highflow cat, 3" catback
open air filters.

My boost is 9 psi


what do u think about my time?

A 13.2 to 13.5 at about 106-107 is more indicative of your mods if you crank the boost up to 12 psi. Are you still running a stock ecu? The trap speed especially is way low, even for 9 psi. Btw, that is your 60 foot time, not your 0-60 time :). I don't mean to be too negative, keep on practicing and I'm sure you'll get better :bigthumb:

i know my speed is too low, the second run i had 100 mph, i ment 0-60 foot, thought that was obvious.

Don't think i need 12 psi to get to 13.2-13.5, i only need better tires cause my start was bad and i had borrowed the tires from a friend and had not driven with them at all before the race.

Here's a 8 meg big movie of me and two other RX-7's at the strip.

i guess he didnt want any opinions on the runs afterall.....

TobiasRX 07-06-03 12:56 PM

no, i appreciate your opinions, i guess i need to work on my expressions in english.

I'm sorry if it felt negative.

Keep your opinions comin' :)

i'd say you know what you need to do. the 60foot is a lil high, the new tires would help, but i bet you can even get down with just practice.

why are you only running 9psi? and how do you keep it there, with such a free flowing intake/exhaust?

TobiasRX 07-06-03 01:49 PM

I've made the poorman's boost controller and exchanged the hoses with the pills between turbos and wastegate and added an adjustable valve. only cost me about 10 dollars.

I can make more then 9 psi but then i get boost peaks when the second turbo kicks in.
