Ya, that looks like its a pretty fun car.
I would hate to see you guys only trap like 118 though, because you are adimit with the 120 plus! Either way, we gonna get a video of this?

116 with 355 hp, so with 408 and 60 more foot pounds of tq, a couple few mph should be easy unless we run into the gearing issue with 4th and 5th gear. might have to short shift 4th and see if that works, i know alberto and i had issues with this same situation.

yeah guys, we couldnt figure out this issue that we were having on the dyno with it only allowing the utec boost control solenoid to make 9.9 psi no matter how much we turned it up. i wanted to get in the utec and turn the boost down to stay in the 80% column.
well on the street it makes 10.5 pounds in fourth and fifth gear so that throws it up in the 90 % load column and i have that set up very very rich cause i couldnt get there on the dyno yet.
sooooo went to the track tonight, car went 11.77 11.78 and 11.83 all around 115, it is trapping 93 at the 1/8th BUT in fourth gear, it is hitting that rich load site that i couldnt tune on the dyno so the car is running in the low 10s AFR and only picking up 21-22 in the top 1/8th where it normally picks up 25+. i tried to bring the laptop to tune it at the track but i forgot the usb cable damnit!!
next wed will be much much better!! i know we can run 11.4 on this stock motor here soon...

thanks guys, i was going all around at the track looking for a usb cable. i was soooo pissed, i couldnt data log anything OR turn down the boost/lean out the 90% column, i always set up the unreachable higher columns to a safe rich AFR in case of overboosting. sucks we couldnt get it to reach over 10 psi on the dyno.
he did pull a 1.63 and a 1.67 on two of the runs. we will get that issue worked out and get back there next wed with the exact same set up!!
time slips and video in a bit

Nice times, going to the track tomarrow, with this new rad I just put in 54mm Koyo. Car runs so cool now, so maybe a higher trap. Local temps look in the 60's so not bad as far as weather.

Nice job Jeremy and AJ!!
I was hoping to see you guys out Wednesday night, but I guess you didn't make it.
On a side note, I drove the car up to Jacksonville on Wednesday to get my chassis cert done, drove it home, swapped tires and fuel and did my 6 NHRA license runs Wednesday night (last qualifying run was 9.18 @ 147.9). I had to keep it under 150 since I don't have a chute...)
Anyway, good job again and I'll try to make it out next Wednesday to atleast spectate (I have cords showing on the ET Streets, so no racing until I buck up for new tires).
Regards, Mike
