New ET w/13lbs of boost on the 6er

[rygenstormlocke]

Starting to finally get the car dialed in. My mph is down from 118, but the other racers at WFC10 said their MPH was down too, so had to be the head wind.

Got an 11.7 with the car, hope to get deeper 11's as I learn to drive it.

what are you doing to adjust yor driving? any tips to help others improve their times as they upgrade with boost?

Thanks man. Well, with the reworked stall, I used to be able to launch at 3K rpm, but on the new built block and turbo cams, there is a crap load of additional TQ. I spent the last 3 track visits being bone headed trying to launch at 3K...resulting in...

...spin city!

The other thing was I didn't have to pump the brakes as much on the old setup. On this new setup, I had to pump the brakes 10 times (literally) and literally stand on the brake while I brought the rpms up. I mean to the point I thought the brake pedal would go through the floor board. This let me launch at 2400, and let me raise the rpms for a longer period of time so I can actually build boost.

When does your turbo kick in at, 2000 rpm?
