[ar0ck]

Making an LT-1 go fast isnt easy.

Gates open at 6pm on Friday, I'll be up there with Tim and Craig (njspeeder and Little G). Craig should have his electric water pump and 15x8 Weld prostars to match the 15x3.5 skinnies on by then....

We are actually hoping for 13's....but any new best time is always good. If you didn't already see, he ended up running a 14.317 at E-town the other night.....

[twiztidz28]

yea i was still there for that run i think. working fridays sucks i still have to tell the other guy he is working friday casue if not im taking off anyways.

[ar0ck]

I cant go, by the time I usually get out of work its too late.

[GP99GT]

ill go, i get out of work at 5:30....let me know when we are goin

[89 Trans Am WS6]

yeah i dont get outa work till like 5-530...after a quick shower i dunno how to get there..lol

what time you goin pat?

[GP99GT]

i say we all meet somewhere local, and head there together...so like 6:30 meet somewhere on Rt 23 (preferably somewhere near 287) and head down. A friend of mine is coming too, he has a 93 3000GT.

[84HOtransam]

im hoping to get a couple of friends from clifton to go...we leave around 5:30 and drive out route 80..from route 19.exit 53??...its about 20 minutes east of the 287 junction...

[skorpion317]

ok, i think we should meet up at some point before we head to the track. get another car train going :D

[GP99GT]

287 junction is exit 43 on 80.....and 80 is exit 41B on 287. My plan is 287S-->80W--->46W...or i could completey rule out 287, and take a side road and come out on 80W at exit 37, though it would be easier to meet before then and just take 287. i hope that all made sense

[SpeakersGoBoom]

if im not working the later shift (1-10) I'll see if i can get there with my friend and his iroc. he claims that thing runs tens, but that seems a little low for that car. 11s or 12s maybe. Well, this is all dependant on me working the earlier shift and me finding him and getting him out of his house. Getting that kid offa his dead ass is like getting an old mustang to run again...it aint happening.

I'm a fan of v6 perf.... but N/A 13's... gonnna take a bit more mods

he might do it though....you never know.

Well, his best run is a 14.317

Since then he has installed an electric water pump, !MAF screen, adjusted MAF tables and timing tables with HP Tuners, dropped the front sway bar, and *hopefully* will have the Weld Prostars on the rear along with his skinnies.....

It's not guaranteed to run 13's, but I think James is just worried that Craig will be faster than he is soon..... :twisted:

what year is craig's camaro? i'm not so sure you should have done the !MAF screen.

don't be hating!!! :burnout:
it is not out of the question that he could put up a 13 second run. it is not the easiest thing to do, but it is with in reason.
the car is a few lbs lighter and will have a bit more power than before. if he can grab a 60ft in the 1.8's and pick up 1 mph that shoudl get him with in range. like i said, not easy, but with in reason.

YES!!! FRIDAY 9:5- to 2!!! Maybe there really is a God. Well, I'll be there. Hopefully I can get Tony off of his dead ass and get him to bring his Iroc. Shelly will be making an appearance, but shes in no condition to run...or show off the sound system. Right now all the speakers are underpowered, except for the RF speaker, which is OVERPOWERED (dont ask. I dont know why yet) so when i turn it on, it sounds like only one speaker works...well, at least shes got a great body to show off. Sexy curves.

Pat i dont know how to get to this place..help a brotha out

The car doesn't mind the lack of MAF screen. No tip-in knock or anything. I adjusted the MAF tables +2% to compensate for the added flow. Don't listen to all those CV6 guys...

eh just wondering....i remember a guy from CV6 dynoing his car with and w/o the MAF screen, and he lost like 1-2 HP w/o it.

[skorpion317]

Pat i dont know how to get to this place..help a brotha out

if you want, matt and I are meeting at curly's ice cream on rt. 23 north around 6ish...you can ride with us. gimme a call tomorrow 973-696-7195

the thing to remeber when a mod like descreening the maf is done is to compensate for the new air flow and the change in the counts that the sensor will see.
if the screen is removed and the tables are not changed it is very likely that a loss of power or odd spikes in power will occur.
that is the advantage that craig has with a program like hptuners. he went to their web site and did a quick search and found the correct adjustments to make to compensate.
tuning is always the correct last step whenever changes in airflow in or out of the engine are made. in a perfect world everyoen would have access to this stuff.
