OT: your older then I thought lol np your still cool in my book


OLD MAN... that's me. I'm 29. :D Started getting the grey hair at 15.

And yeah, very glad I finally made it. The car is back to running like poo. Guess it really wanted it's crack for the day and decided to run good. Going to reset the computer tonight and see if it learned to run around that bad plug or something. :rolleyes:

Really...thats weird
Maybe its because loss of traction? Have you tried doing it to only 1800?

Actually if I stall the car at all the car will be slower. I need the shock of the flash from idle to get the car to launch... if not it'll bog off the line. IF I can get it to hold, the big impact of idle to WOT can really get my car moving.

I still miss the days I could do that AND have the juice hit, but I need some suspension for that. Right now the only suspension I have are the springs... no sub-frames, Control arms, shocks, etc. Plus I may try to remove the front sway bar next time. It might be holding the springs back some. :shrug:
 
How much does the sway bar affect driving? Is this something I can take off and drive a couple hours to and from the track or do you suggest I remove it at the track?

You won't even notice it's gone unless you try autocrossing or something. I took mine off for the last test and tune and still haven't put it back on...it literally feels no different. Rip that bitch off. :D

Definately going to give a shot next trip out. I really want a 13 N/A. Probably would have had it later on that day if I hadn't toasted that spark plug. :bang: Oh well, there is still time, plus I didn't have a video camera there and the signs at the end of the track were broke anyway.
