Yeah I'll be here until probably 10. I have John's car here, another one to tune that should make good power as well.

Full boost at 6600rpm, currently, I'll see if I can speed that spool up a bit.

Naw it weighs to much, the tune is still a bit rough.
I can probably get another 100rpm out of it, but the nitrous weighs to much for john currently.
I think hes building an awd fucking honda.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
I too have a direct port setup sitting here right now. I will be taking off the turbo along with everything else this winter, and inspecting it, as there's no reason it should be that laggy.

26psi, I do not have enough exhaust manifold pressure to get it down to 23psi.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
Clutch slip owns, guess we have a good fuse for the track.
Plenty of power left on tap, but we tapped out the clutch right away.

Re: Finally getting stuff done on our cars
Wow, that thing is going to be a handful! Is any of the short powerband due to the clutch slipping? Nice numbers, it should be a lot of fun to drive.

Yeah the clutch slips the more we turn it up, its like a torque converter
John just hit it on the street, LMAO. 1-2 shift car got about 45 degrees sideways @9k in 1st gear. The car unloads even with a 140 ramp rate, we didn't bother to try higher.
We will leave the power where it is at for now and just sort out the rest of the car for spring, see you all tommorrow.
It could make more tommorrow if the clutch is broken in, we'll see.
