isnt 60' time a good measure of your traction?

i would imagine that slow shifting would effect trap speeds...but who the hell is slow shifting.

All i am saying is that his trap is WAY off for 380 rwhp!!!! Cant change my mind there man.

i shift slow but ive never broke a tranny either. and your 60' isnt gonna compensate for second and maybe third gear kickin out.

but again, he said he was running lower boost than on the dyno at 380.

1 psi!

To me a 112mph trap says 320ish rwhp. which makes alot more sense than 380 with his mods and boost. do you disagree there?

My turbo lag accounts for some of the lost 60' but Im also spinning thru 2nd gear.

When he dynoed it was a first run and was cold out. I would say a more realistic HP figure is around 360. He does have a huge port on his motor and turbo manifold.

I will have #s from a different (chassis) dyno posted within the next few weeks.

As I stated in the original post, POOR DRIVER.

u sure this is good idea. U dont think its posible to foul out the plugs this way?

anyways i used to do this as part of my spring wake up for my fd too. But this season it was real hard to start after putting fuse back in. I smelled alot fuel. It finally started.
