So who all is going?

I have some final testing to do Monday so Tuesday morning I should know if I'm going or not.

I will probably go Dave. This weekend coming up though I am going to be hauling the majority of my stuff sitting here down to the springs... IE.. 2 weeks time I will be tuning the car...


Any help would be appreciated... *wink*

I'm not saying you need to run in competition but you should get a 1/4 mile time so you can relate and show the power to us in a way you can compare to other cars. Unless people know a specific track and go there then lap times won't mean anything to them.

Everything checks out. See you guys at the track tomorrow. I'll be pitting on the north side of the concession stands.

hopefully i'll be there. i ran a 14.3 at 97 last week. my first time with my new 16g at 15 psi. that was with 2.0X 60's.......maybe i can get into the 13's with better driving and higher boost. what do you guys think? does my trap speed look high enough for a high 13?........on another note, what is the difference between a TDO5 housing and a TDO5H housing. the compressor map off the "turbo selection guide" sticky is for a TDO5-16G and my housing says TDO5H.
just wondering........

Those traps are good for 13's. What were your 60's?

2.0XX 60's.....i used to nail 1.8 60's on my t-25 but i am trying to learn how the new turbo launches. i had one .093 reaction with a 1.886 60'.......but in the top of third my EGT got close to 1600 so i let off and coasted through the traps. that run was over 2 tenths quicker to the 330' and ended up being a 14.301 but only at 93 mph since i coasted........that run was right when it cooled down and all the sudden i was pushing 20psi on my stock fuel system!!! by the way dave, i was the guy in the white eclipse right behind you before they opened the gates.

I'll be there before the gates open. I"m going to leave around 2:30 from my place so I'm not sitting in rush hour traffic.

We usually pit on the north side of the concession stands 1st or 2nd row.

Ahh ok. Now I know who you are. Do you have an s-afc in the car?

no, i don't have any real tuning equipment yet.....just a boost gauge and egt so i know if i'm going to blow something up. my intercooler was getting waaaay heat soaked at the end of my runs so i was going to upgrade that next. do you guys think i should go with an afc/pocketlogger and fuel pump instead? it would end up being the about the same $.
