Where is the love guys?
Brian I showed up just after 11 with a bbq in the back of my camaro had the hatch tied to the hitch.
A few nice cars rolled by many opted to go out binge drinking at one of the many St patties day parades tho.
Mystic mustang put down somewhere in the mid 500 range with power and almost 600 in torque if I heard correctly.
It was pretty fun and alot of cool rides cruised in and out the entire day.

As for the turbo 3.1l he had MAJOR issues today like "I slapped some **** together just to prove **** to some jerkoffs on some site where their is no love any more and should have just waited another day to make sure every thing was right on point because then I would have make jaws drop" kinda of problems but hopefully it will prove most of the haters wrong next time around.

Im just happy he has a thirdgen, is working on it and doing something completely different then everyone else and their mamas. Why cant you guys cut any one a break?

was this the heap at the track that i saw like 6 guys running around with laptops in the staging lanes at etown?

project89 · 03-14-2009, 11:22 PM

the timing issue was totally unexpected,had i known before hand i would have called and just come up during the week.i didnt knwo about it till after the second pull and i threw the timing light on it and seen that timing was not advancing.
it only would have taken about 10 mins to fix but i didnt want to hold the dyno up

other then that the only other issue i had was for some reason i could not get the boost to increase no matter how much i cranked down on my boost controller, but limited timing can cause that as well

also gota remeber the day before today my engine block had 2 big ass cracks in it, by the time i finished repairing that alls i had time was to give it those 2 test shots up the street

it dont matter i setup an apointment with jay to get the car redynoed with it fixed for this comming wensday.

I must have just missed you then. I didn't stick around because it was pretty dead in the morning. I did tell the guy running the dyno that I was referred by you. I also had to get back to my place to pack since I'm moving into my new house in a week. Nice shop though and my buddies WRX put down some respectable #'s for just a cobb stage 2 basemap.

ill be the one lol,ing when i get my 10.90 time slip this year, car hits the track first week in april after i install the cage

so youre saying that you still give a *****, just less than what youd normally give? and youll need more than 268whp to run a 10.9 my friend

No he doesn't Ron, because he KNOWS someone else who got into the 10's with 370. I guess you haven't been watching the mags lately, the latest go fast mod is knowing someone with more power than you.

Uh, we know your car. We saw it run 17's, 18's and then a bind-blowing 23 sec 1/4 at Island durring the Nats.
We saw the single bank turbo, we hears you complain about it not "getting enough boost" and that you were pulling all sorts of parts out to push it "over 20psi" when you made that record setting pass.

Please. 10's in the 1/8th? I can see that. Even at 470hp, I dont see you running anywhere near 10's. Id save your money on that cage, I dont think you will be needing it for some time.

project89 · 03-15-2009, 01:58 PM

and now u can see me go 13.0 breaking in the new motor before the nats last year, with the old turbo which was much smaller then the one i dynoed with

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/130_641187.htm

cars been even faster already
so keep ur **** talking up so i can keep track of who talks the most **** and embarrass u at ur own f-body event

where was the 13.0 run? why did the tree turn red?

what size turbo is on the car now?

being a member of the club, wouldn't it be our own f-body event?

Mike · 03-15-2009, 02:24 PM

then we saw you get the boot from last years nats.......

13.0 was at e-town few weeks before the nats ran the car really rich that night 10.5 afrs with only 10 psi.i couldnt hold the car on the line against the converter that night. i didnt have a line lock so i kept overheating the rear brakes in the burnout box.sucked when trying to get the turbo spooled up when staged.

even though its redlights the times are still accurate, the second run was a planed head start anyway against my friends low 10 sec gn

old turbo was a 50mm turbo the new one is a 61mm unit

only time i come here is when somone decides to talk **** or post one of my vids off streetfire

Mike · 03-15-2009, 02:34 PM

then you drove home with no wipers in your high quality, awesomely engineered car..........why not make it safe to drive before driving to the track?

NJSPEEDER · 03-15-2009, 02:41 PM

If you really wanna show everyone up I have a proposition for you. The members here go to the track all the time, so just let us know when you are ready and we will see how many people can be there to witness your can put up the numbers you are shooting for.

If you accomplish your goal I will be the first person to shake your hand and say congrats and I will even buy yoru first round at the bar after. If you wanna line up next to someone I will even be happy to fill that role, but I will warn you that my car is not fast and I sit on street tires, so I won't be a good car to pace you to your 10 second goal.

Let me know when you are ready. I have video camera mounts and I am sure we can get other cameras there to document your glorious achievement.

i always figured if it rained while i had the car out at e-town my house is only a 5 mins drive away it wouldnt be that bad.

the wipers went back into the car after that day at island,i really dont go far with the car often, and i dont need it for a dd so i was in the middle of removing them to get rid of the wieght.

Mike · 03-15-2009, 02:56 PM

mine stayed on because most "street" classes require them.......

blades are about 4 years old though
