testing tonight. Went 6.36 @110.89. I think that should secure me a 9 second pass. Made 5 passes.

6.47 @108.45

6.44 @ 111.11

6.47 @ 110.89

6.56 @ 109.06

Found boost leak, melted line to boost controller.

Car was running max 2.0 bars then falling fast.

Fixed line and it went 6.36 @ 110.89 with 35.71 psi

1.43 sixty
4.15 330ft

Tried dropping tire pressure each pass. To date 14 psi has still been the ticket with 1.36.

 

Congrats man, deff 9 sec time slips!

 

Nice! Do you think you finally have the clutch issues resolved?

 

Congrats, E/T's looking pretty darn consistent!

 

Yeah, new clutch has been perfect. Will post some videos soon. Dragged the exhaust on a few passes. Have got to stiff up the suspension.

 

Your car always makes me giggity when i read updates. You have such good luck with it and it flat out hauls. Hope mine stays together like so. Good job, now get to a 1/4mi track:

 

Congrats bro!

Where's the video

 

 

Nice going man, did you go back to the 16's in the rear?

 

Same 4 year old engine with around 20k miles?

 

Same motor, but not 20k miles. I didn't drive it as much in the last 2 years just tired of swapping the coil overs and tire- wheels. Maybe 12k miles or so. But a crap ton of slips from the track. Would have to count them up but guessing this motor has close to 100+ passes. I have never touched the tune ray put on it and it was only tuned to 25psi and it's on a gm 3 bar sensor so it's in never never land on these passes @ 30+psi. Really impressed on how well this tune and motor have lasted. When Ray made one of the higher boost pulls on it a seal stuck and he wanted to stop there and have me pull the motor to clearance the rotors because I didn't on the build. I didn't want to stop and asked him to finish. Here it is 4.5 years later.


I am sure I could lean it out and pick a tad, afr's in 3rd gear were in the high 10's.. then do some suspension work and pick up some more but that last pass was all she has in it's current state.

What sucks is my lab top battery is dead so I run a converter in the dash. On the last pass it hooked so good it came out of the dash and computer cut off so no log... Crap... My boost controller showed peak boost at 2.43bars.

 

Yeah. I had it set to go on the welds and some coil overs/ qa1 springs I was going to test then I heard it was $100 payout to the quickest import so decided to go with the proven set up.

 

Congrats man, you and I would make a good match race loll

 

Well meet in TX and race for $50.00

 

Very nice! Definately 9's!

 

Lemme know LOL..

 

Nice Run's Mike!!

 

I always like seeing updates about your car. Congrats on the #'s! Car is fast man. Can't wait to get mine done and get back out to the track.

 

Thanks everyone! I do want to mention this is still on the original axles that came in the car and i have been drag racing this car For 15yrs!

That's kinda been my goal, to run 9's on via Mazda oem set up (diff, tranny, axles) and still on a 67mm turbo.

 

Nice man...

Where are you in Alabama?

 

Huntsville, thanks!

 

congrats man... 9s is waiting

 

Congrats man!

 

Congrats... I haven't been to the track since Montgomery. I think I am going to put on my stock rear shocks before going to Gainesville for the import face off in Oct.

 

Stockers do great I have found. I am really thinking of doing a custom double adjustable setup next. Going to try to weld up brackets and such. Good luck in Fl. I am out for ifo in Montgomery and face off in ga due to kids events those weekends. I thought about gainesville but heard they are strict on tech .
