base run for the new 42 setup

ok for the first test and tune of the year this weekend....

i was out on saturday at the track... and i wasnt going to run my car because it is completely untuned with afrs of base 10's that bottom my Wideband O2 out and only at 10 psi of boost

so i neglegted to run on saturday... and just watched everyone.... ha but it really got to me because a couple of people that were "supposed" to be faster than me at 10psi were only pulling mid 13's with 117-119 traps.... and touched a high 12 on only one pass = sad and me wanting to run

and one was a whipple cobra that i watched dyno 537 wheel earlier that day
and the other was a gt32 KA24 240 at 20psi, that posts he killed me from a roll
( ha another ridiculas story in itself)

well so on sunday i got my cooling panels done and headed to the track late in the afternoon.... needless to say i was about the only one there.

i only have the NA rear still and i really jsut wanted to see where i stood so i went wtih soft launching, i just slipped the clutch....

on the first pass of the season i ran a 12.4 at 109 with a sixty foot of 1.9 at 10psi of boost.... ran a couple more times with similar results back to back data logging

we turned the boost up a little to 14psi and was in the staging lines... but the track had computer difficulties and shut down the track(it was late evening)... or we would of had a 11 sec pass for sure on easy launches... the car pulls excellent at 14psi, compared to 10psi... i am very very satisfied... that compressor is not even in its efficiency range at those low of boost levels


and here is the shitty vid of the first run...... 1.9 60ft.... 10psi, not to shabby, now time for boost and tunning

oh yeah and that smoke is my clutch ..... just launching soft rolling off the clutch...





ha listen to how quiet the car is........ 4 mufflers and a plumbed in WG

what about engine break in!? no way you put 1000 on there already did you!? you sure did tune it fast as well! anyway, it sounds and looks bitchin. the fact you ran that fast on a very innefficient 10psi gives me some hope for my car dipping into the low 12's high 11's. cant wait to see you turn up the boost and lay the smack down on some V8's and big single FD's! by the way we need some new pictures since its in fully running form.

EDIT: read the other thread, missed the last update, car looks great!
