tim told me i can move my a/f ratio to 11.5-12 for better numbers
i toke the car to the track and was running 13.6@107mph :mad:

so i will get some dr's and so practice and see if i cant get into the 12's others running 107-110 were in the 12 so thats were i need to be

i was spinning so bad that the car was turning sideways i think my trap is kinda low maybe
 
Not bad....some more fine tuning and you will tweak out some better numbers (i'm in the same boat)
Everyone has been telling me that I should be running in the 12's so, keep practicing and you'll get there. !st gear sucks doesn't it? ha ha
 
hehe thxs
yea in first gear i just sit there and spin then i get to move down the track in second :D

every one else at the track running 107+ are in the deep 12's so i was kinda pissed with my numbers but then again they had dr's or all-wheel drive

so i got 31-spline and differ. in the basement and a set of welds (15x8) and dr's 275x60x15 on the way then i will show them :D :D

awesome...get some LCA's while your at it :nice:
 
it is the car's tune is alittle on ok a lot on the rich side
i am going to have to lean the car out in the low mid range to get the torque i should have

i do have lca on the car but my tires are crap but they look good i have sumos(sumtos some thing like that) 315 out back

i think my launching at 6k and dumping the clutch killed me with the 4.10s out back

going to get tire/shift ligth and few other things maybe even buy some driving skills hehe
 
I'm jealous of the parts you have waiting to go on...sometime this winter for me!
Everyone tells me that I need to 'roll' into the gas coming off the line...I rev up to around 1800 rpms, and practice a smooth clutch release and try to resist mashing the pedal to the floor....good luck getting that one down!:D
 
thats what i am saying looking at the dyno sheet

i am pig rich in the middle of my horse power band thats were i will need to lean it out to get better tq numbers

i even have enuff play to lean out the top as well for better hp numbers

only good thing is that once it starts to get cold out and the air gets denser my numbers will go up on there own

i am going to keep this tune until spring of next year i that way i will not need a winter tune for the car

Whoa man, that will cause major traction issues on a bone stock car.

Try launching low, like as low as you can before the engine bogs, but not high enough to spin. Almost bone stock I launch around 22-2400 RPM and I still spin 1st out.

Definatly lower the launch RPM... a ton. Thats why you are trapping low, and your ET's are suffering aswell.
 
yea i get so excited at the line i am like a caged dog ready to run as soon as they open the gate lol


i have eibach lowering springs,sub frames,lca and 5way adj tokica struts out back

also have a pair of uca that i have had for over a yr. but never installed

then i install my new axle and differ. i will put the uca on some time before it starts getting cool out

Are you crazy to launch at 6k ? I lanuch at 3k and cut 1.8 60'
I think you will brake some thing with 6k launch for sure. I have less power then you and I launch 3k, you should launch less then 3k even with DR
 
Congrats on your Vortech it should really make a difference.I think your numbers are good since Tims'
tunes are conservative for the longevity of your engine.
Tims' tunes are indeed one of the safest out there.
 
i believe i can lean out the car with my sct tuner but it only allows 6% over the full rpm range and so far as timing i think tim was saying 2* adv is the most you can do

not sure how much more hp/tq i will get from the handheld tune over just having the car retuned by a tuner
