i ran at E town race track with broken Diff mounts 3 spark plugs, and shot suspension, and messed up on third gear, but still ran 12.7 at 106.84 MPH, mods were

pettit ECU
Dp
MP
CB
PFS intercooler
MT ET Street
RPS clutch
Custom Intake
Walbro Fuel Pump

car was running too rich but i was to lazy to find the prob, so the car finally got stuck on me in Manhatten then i decided to realy do work now till i found out that my plug wires was never on...lol. so the motor got flooded

 

good time but take a little better care of the car

there are people out there that do everything they can to prevent motor damage and still blow them so I believe you got lucky.

We know trailing spark plugs aren't that important

You must have been running high boost and had a good 60 time. Don't make it sound like you have a 10 second car there pal. I have the same mods and low 12s would be a very good time for this setup and high 11's would happen if everything was perfect.

 

well considering that i REALY messed up third and it was a leading plug that was out, i think i coulda hit a high 11 that day if all was well. O yea it was my first time at the track too

 

Why would you take a car in that condition to a drag strip?

 

another fd close to the grave...ouch.

 

because i already have toys for it already, the plug wires i didnt know it was loose

 

Bummer you race a car with problems. No wonder people think FDs are unreliable.

 

i would like to know also...

 

i don't think he knew what was wrong with it. he didn't do it on purpose i believe i have video of him beating me at the track

 

correct, i didnt know what was wrong with it, i just new it was running realy rich, but better to be rich then lean right, and we ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL know that to trouble shoot a 7 its a big process if you can't get it the first time. And dont think i dont take car of my car, cuz im just *** reliable to maintain my **** like the next person..

 

So do you have this run on video because I find it very hard to believe, sorry. The plug wire maybe came loose after the race because running a 12.7 with those mods would be a good time without all the "problems" you are claiming it had. Maybe I am wrong though.

 

yes i do have it on video, but i very much doubt that it came of after the run because

1) the out put on the coil blaster looks like some what corroted like any metal looks like from not cleaning it mean while the other ones are perfectly clean....and

2) sorry buddy with these mods its possible to run 12.0 all day cuz it has been done B4 by someone in this forum too back in 98

3) i know it didnt happen after the run because i have a stronge feeling it was the reason for my 2 sets of four spark plugs to go foul in less then 200 miles that happened B4 that day

 

i could post the video but i dunno who will host it or how to host it

 

I know its possible to run low 12's with those mods, especially with the slicks on the car, look at my mods, its not that I am doubting a low 12 with those mods. I just question the plug wire being off, shouldnt that have made like a HUGE difference?? Guess not. Maybe I will pull one of my leading plug wires off someday and see how it runs to solve my curiosity, good run though.

 

thnx, MAYBE VOSKO CAN HOST THE VIDEO FOR ME HUUUHHHHHHHH VOSKO...LOL sorry for the caps

 

i could

 

OT:

Now ain't that the pot calling the kettle black....LOL

Hey, you may have th p-wagon now, but give me 2 weeks snook ;*)

Translation:

That would be me quoting Snook saying to take good care of a car he constantly breaks himself. See quote.

Next reference = he says he has the ***** wagon in his avatar. I will concede he has that in our area for 2 more weeks after which he can hang on for my sloppy seconds ;*)

Had it been a leading plug, then yes, huge affect on performance, but a trailing plug missing would be hard to notice, especially with all those mods.

 

post a copy of your timeslip please

 

so you guys are saying that i can run low 12's with an ECU, dp, mp, cp, PFS cooler, Tires, clutch, intake, and fuel pump??? on stock turbos and stock motor??? cuase damn i should be in the 10's with stock turbos then... i have alot more **** than that... i just dont see that happening...

p.s. i have yet to take my car to the track...

 

bingo

 

with those mods low 12 s with good traction is a definate....i could even see high 11s with 15psi.
