FM E1 turbo and drag radials 12.48@115.09

Well I managed to finally get to the track last nite for some 225/50/15 drag radial runs and made out quite well considering the poor track prep and my stock clutch is slipping now. Here's the stats.

R/T .122
60' 2.052 225/50/15 DR's are too small or the car is too powerful for them.
330' 5.439
1/8 8.172
mph 89.16
1000' 10.521
1/4 12.486
mph 115.09=estimate of 325whp

Car picked up 5 mph from the last time I was at the track with just the addition of FM's returnline kit and stage 2 injectors. This run was on C16 with a 12.0 AFR and about 25psi of boost with a slipping clutch. If it weren't for the slipping clutch and poor traction this would have correlated to a 12.28@115.09 on slicks with my normal sub 1.85 60's. Now its time to step it up to the FM E3 turbo and get an ACT clutch. :thumb:

No there not to small. Ive run them with a bigger turbo and 1.8'ish 60's consistently with a SRT.Try a little longer burnout.http://www.turbosystem.com/ProjectVehicles/srt-4%20burnout%20st%20louis%20nopi.jpg

Kind of off topic, but 15's fit over the stock brakes? Nice times btw, E1 turbo is on the list of upgrades for the PT next year.

Depends on the wheel.On the AR24's I had to use a 1/8th spacer.

Gotcha, reason I ask is I've thought of using some TD wheels with drag radials or slicks.

what are you tuning with? Are you seeing any timing being pulled from knock?

As far as I know C16 is leaded fuel, what kind of O2 sensor are you running ? or are you using always a new one ? :D

Tried it, doesn't work for me.

I use Kosei K1 15X7 38mm offset


TD wheels won't clear the calipers. Cheapest solution is 15x6 steel PT cruiser rims. I just picked up a set of 4 off craigslist for $60.

Nice times Rob. What is your complete set up besides the drag radials, E1 turbo, returnline kit and Stage 2 injectors?

FM 3in. TBE with borla XR1 racing muffler and no cat
FM E1 turbo soon to be E3 turbo 47lb powered
FM FMIC kit
FM wga
FM returnline setup
Walbro 255 lph pump
Magnecore wires
NGK 4306 plugs
Stage 2 pcm soon to be stage 3 pcm
Stage 2 injectors
2003 fuel rail
Mopar CAI
Eibach pro kit
Hotchkis sway bars

No KR present and timing advance was 30 degrees on that run according to my aeroforce scan gauge.

I don't run it that often so therefore it isn't an issue. Maybe once or twice a year at the most.

This doesn't really make sense.

Are your tires spinning or your clutch slipping?

You dont seem to be sure. Because of that, all the advice here really means nothing.

What kind of tire pressure are you running in them.Id run anywhere from 18-20 psi.You might also try running 100 octane.C16 might just be too much octane.Im not trying to sound like a smart --- but Ive done this once or twice.Also the D/R take a few runs to break them in.They seem to work best wore about half way to almost bald.

I moved the TM wheels on SRTs posts here

Spinning at the end of 1st into 2nd gear. Clutch started to slip in 4th going through the traps. I fried the clutch on that run because next round in the burnout box proved it, clutch smoke not tires...lol Comment about my advice??? :confused:

12psi seems to work best for me with no wheel hop present.
