Take a look

This was the log from the 13.8 run at Bandi this afternoon.

Looking good - I'd lean it out a little more evenly and advance your timing a bit. Good, strong airflow too.

What octane fuel were you running?

[hoffman]

93 octane. 20psi, hole in the FMIC, no syncros left in the tranny :p

I tryed adding 3* of timing across the board on the first run and she knocked all over the place. So I set it back to 0 and then she ran the 13. Almost a full second and 5 mph faster. Stupid knock.

I'm actually think that adding fuel, keeping it at close to 11:1AFR then adding timing might be the trick since 11.3:1 and 3* didn't work.

Either way, once I get the intake leak fixed and some good tuning I'm hoping to break 12. If the tranny lets me.

[XakEp]

That FMIC needs to be fixed ASAP. I think you should even the individual fuel settings out to 0 and take them down -2 or -3 after each run - unless that what you did to get at the settings you have now. I would imagine that would let you start to advance your timing about +5 or +6 or so. That way you could get your car pretty damn well tuned after about 3 or 4 runs.

That and put some 100 in. That'll wake the car up alot.

Good start to the season tho!

Dallas and I took the car out for a series of 3rd gear pulls to get the tuning started. But now that you mention it, I should probably add in about 5%, add 5* timing, then start again from there.

I also noticed the AFR is leaner at lower rpms than higher up.

Bandi was packed today. They were running people based on ETs. So I got placed in with the 14.0 and faster group, which must have had 400 some odd cars there. If you managed to be first to stage you could easy get in a run, roll back into line then wait another hour or so. But that wasn't my luck today and I wasn't about to ask the cfdf to do a repeat 1.8 - 60' in a matter of minutes :p

All in all, I hoping to get her tuned enough to produce 12s on a 16g. Something that hasn't been done in Colorado in a while.

Actually, make it hold 22* timing accross the band and tune fuel around that. That seems to be where our cars, and DSMLink runs the best.

[hoffman]

So add 7* instead of 5*? Or add 22*? I already have 15* advance, when I'm not knocking :p.

[hoffman]

Testing this out

[v413nc3]

Add enough so that you HOLD 22* from when you hit boost on to redline. Then adjust fuel until you no longer have knock.
