Well, Bandy tonight was a mix... No rain, lots of cold air, and I was about ready to sell my car I was SO pissed at it... I was really down for most the night, running 13.8's and 14.2s... It had a REALLY bad stumble at a few points in the RPM band. I finally figured it out literally RIGHT before my last pass...

THE GODDAMN HKS S-AFR WAS SET FOR 2 CYLINDERS. Thats right, it was set for HALF my engine capacity... Ugh...

SO my last run was:

R/T :.541
60': 1.879
330: 5.505
1/8: 8.518
MPH: 84.02
1000:11.115
1/4: 13.359
MPH: 100.80

A new personal best considering that it wasnt anywhere NEAR tuned... It was tuned for 2 cyls.. LMAO... I'll be up there on the 2nd to tune it again and hopefully I can drive down to the springs the saturday after that....

Hope I can get 12s with some tuning....

At least you figured out what was up.

How in the hell did that get set for 2 cyl.?! If you don't mind me asking...

The cold air was freaking sweet today, I was sooo tempted to go at 7:00 pm on pump gas, but I know that patience is usually rewarded. Next week...

Nice job!

So, if I could get a 60' of 1.879 my car would be right around your 13.35.

1.879 on a fwd, ya right....lol

On 15psi I trap ~100mph but being fwd I cant get that kind of 60'. Well I guess I will try more boost next Wednesday.


Again, nice job!

The damn AFR has an annoying habit of randomly changing its cylinder settings sometimes and you can only see what its set to when the car is off but the key is in the ON position... Grr...

What mods are you running? Boost?

I'll be up there possibly next week and just see if I can hit a 13.1 but my logger is showing that my stock injectors are pretty much maxxed but at 18psi I was still getting zero knock and 21-22 degrees of advance so the car was running good. Even my stock IC wasn't getting too hot.

Mods? lol... You can see my list on my profile page off the front www.rmdsm.org - my name is Quinn Kuzmich. I was running 20 psi of boost or so, but I'm pretty sure that my FMIC is leaking something bad so its coming off next monday and getting the holy hell JB WELDED out of it.

On a side note, the damn turbo sounded like a JET TURBINE. wow... I also found out that for every 75-100 HP you add to your car, you should run with 1 range colder plugs... Heres the link:
