FD vs C5 Vette Rematch
 

C5 now has intake, removed mufflers, and ported TB. I have same mods, bad ignition breakup (still waiting on twin power to get here :( ). Enjoy

Cool... Looks pretty close to me if you remove the jump in the second race.... :blue:

What power does your 7 make?

Nice kill, looks like the camera guy has a problem focusing on what he's doing :p:

damn! flammage

nice run

I would love to see a race from a stop for once

Wow, you'll beat that vette pretty hard once you get that twin power installed...

That was some closely-matched racing!

I liked the big flames on the final shift, then we see that the dotted white line is now a solid blur and the Chast White slowly pulls ahead...

Thanks for the vid!

ever dyno your car?

That has to be a stock ported motor.

love that fucken flamage :)

Now now, I listened very closely and they both punched it at exactly the same time from what I can tell. His exaust is so loud though that you can't even hear that LS1 screaming away, lol :D :p:

If anything I think the FD punched it a bit late on the first race, and the 2nd was dead on but he was in a sweet spot perhaps. The FD is clearly the quicker of the 2 cars in this matchup.

Nice vid, thanks!


:bigthumb:

Nope, going to in a week or 2, been waiting on my twin power for about 2 months though from rx7store. I am on stock ports and the first run i started a little late and spun pretty bad. Second run I was brake boosting and got a nice jump. :bigthumb:

NICE! i love close races! and the flammage of course...that was wicked

Good fight...good night!

hmm....interesting. My stock port motor that had a 6 and 5 compression with all bolt ons @ 13 psi smoked a C5 with intake and exhaust. I was running like that with a z06. You have an ecu running 15 psi...you should have worked him!
What do u run in the 1/4?

I dunno, it looks like that ignition breakup is really really bad. In the second run, look at the exhaust after the car pops a mini-flame on that shift. You can see flames licking out of the exhaust under WOT in the higher RPMs. That can make a serious difference in performance.

That is what I was thinking. I can hang with a stock c5 at stock boost!

very nice man! thanks for the vid. great run!

u should have pulled him. i think you are down on power probably cause u need a tune.
i have the same mods as you and dont even bother lining up with basically stock vettes anymore....i walk them pretty good. Get a tune and you will too.

My best run in the 1/4 is a 12.6@112 with a 2.0 60', I've already been tuned up at Gotham, i'm running extremely rich 10:1 afr's. Hopefully the twin power clears it up when i run him again.

really. why did kan tune you to a 10 afr?

Nice vid! 10:1 AFR's seem exceptionally rich, I thought low 11:1 AFR's are optimum?

Wow...interesting. With those numbers i would think you would have done better! But i guess every car is different

Are you sure it was 10:1 and not 11:1?

Actually it is 11:1 my bad, Getting dyno'd on the 14th so we'll see what it looks like.
