Weak attempt at 0-90+
 

On my way back to my parents' (WI) on Saturday morning I decided to measure one quick run since I had the camera handy. 80 and humid out, 2/3 tank of gas, tires at 33 psi each, left trac ON by accident :oops: , and I still need to learn how to LAUNCH this thing :lol: No KR at least.
I think it's easily capable of lower 5's to 60 once I get it down. Sorry for not getting a better run for you guys, but here ya go anyway!

HOLY SHIT! That is fast as heck! :shock: :shock: :shock: 8)

what exhaust do you have on now?

SLP headers, SLP cat, stock past that - except for that missing passenger exhaust tip :lol:

once you change that muffler to an f-body, it should sound sweet. an outside audio clip would be nice to see if you can hear the headers with the stock muffler

I'll work on it. It's just REALLY hard to find good places around here to film. Luckily I at least got something to show from the way home.

Holy. :shock: That thing moves like a bat outta hell! :twisted:

0-60 in about, what, 5.8 seconds was that?holy sheet.

:shock: dang that car is fast! Got a radar yet? Intense should include one with there packages

That was pretty impressive, very nice.

Looks pretty good, that 1-2 shift looks real nice :) Only 6k shifts? (I'm thinking 6'200- 6250rpm for my setup)

My advice for working on your launch is to do it with out the brake first, then once you have it down sit on the brakes and bring the revs up.

Thanks for the tip. I definitely have a lot of practice left to do, but man once I get it down :twisted: . And yeah, I'm amazed how crisply it shifts, but I thought it was supposed to be 6250 as well. Maybe it's the camera angle and lack of a truely accurate tach that contributes to the perception of only 6k...

What other mods did you get?! That puts my car to shame after the mods I did to it.

Looks good Bob :)

Oh Bob you're so modest. :lol: That was quick regardless of your launch!

I was impressed.

I wish my tranny shifted like that, I woulda broke 13's :cry:

Yeah no doubt, Travis!! Sooo damn close!

FWI, 180* T-stat, Autolite 103's (Need to ask Tim what he gapped them at), Stage 1x cam package, Yella Terra 1.6RR's and Pushrods, 3.2" MPS, Intense Transaxle with 3.29 gearing and 3000 stall TC.....I think that's it :lol:

Next step, hopefully soon, is Flow-matched injectors, P&P'd SC and TB and consequently dropping to a 3.0" pulley assuming the KR continues to stay away.

Then it'd be stage 3 heads, Gen V and 1.8 RR's :lol: 8) :twisted: But that's a ways off!! :lol:

That was impressive. DAMN,I wish I lived closer to Ohio :twisted:

Great excuse for a road trip!! :D

Very nice.
Looks like you would pull a mid to high 13 sec 1/4 mi run. 8)

That was the initial goal 8)
I'll be hitting a few tracks when the weather cools down a bit to see what I/the car can do.

Make sure if it's cool that the humidity is as low as possible. ;)

You might even pull a low 13 sec run if the conditions and traction are right.

FWI, 180* T-stat, Autolite 103's (Need to ask Tim what he gapped them at), Stage 1x cam package, Yella Terra 1.6RR's and Pushrods, 3.2" MPS, Intense Transaxle with 3.29 gearing and 3000 stall TC.....I think that's it :lol: [/quote]

WOW, i watched that video and didn't realize that you had already went to intense and was amazed. Looks pretty quick.

Ha, yeah that'd be one H E L L of a factory freak :lol:
By the way, Tim gapped the plugs at .048".

damn, i knew i shouldve done a cam... very quick car there. at first i thought that you were running like that with the light mods listed in your sig. but yeah, very impressed! 8) 8)

Hehe... just out of nowhere I got the urge to watch your video again... DAMN that is fast. :D

thats low 13s. no question in my mind. 12s with slicks I think. :shock:

looks like 11 Seconds to get to 90. That makes it what....12ish to get to 100+?

With a 3.0" pulley and race gas....that car would be way fun.

I conservatively timed 11.5 to 90, which I would THINK would equal about 13.5 to 100 (and the 1/4 mile) based on the fact I was accelerating roughly 2 seconds per 10 mph (not slowing down much either) but I stillI have no idea how low 13's could be in store with just these mods, and other guys running mid 13's with the same. But damn, 12's are so freaking enticing!! I guess I'm even more pumped that this was just a random run with no prep whatsoever and a pretty crappy launch. I swear to god that was a flat road, but it also makes me wonder now too...

jshelton Ran a 13.49 with only rockers, headers, pcm and a 3.2, stock cam, stock gear ratio, street tires....His car weighs several hundred pounds more than yours. With the weight advantage, your cam, and slicks I'd think it would be very close to 12s.

Looks like it was flat (+3 feet actually, 888 to 891) 8)

I love this website for mapping my running routes by the way :D
