Well, more boring stories for you guys.
Thursday after work, install my OBX LSD in my van, got to bed at 4 am, back at work for 8:45 am the next day.
Get to the track Friday after work, install slicks, boost is still set at 20 ish PSI from the other Friday night, van has been parked as my Jimmy needed some tlc. I put 20 litres of 94 oct Chevron in my empty tank and 1.5 gallons C16. Hit the burnout box and do a f*cking wicked burnout, but engine cutting out and chugging, clear out the engine and stage, bog off the line and it coughs and splutters the whole run, #$~!$$##%, run a 15.7@88.2 mph, 2.4 60ft. Its neat having both wheels spin in the bleach box.
I change out the custom cal chip and install Shel-Games chip. Make NO OTHER changes, do another wicked burnout-YES, I know, your not supposed to but I wanted to beat on my OBX and plus, its FUN- 2.37 60ft and rip a 14.4@94 mph, still at 20 ish boost.
Give the MBC 1 turn and go back out, pitted against a mint condition Datsun 510, its also eerily quiet!!!!!!!!! I bust a .564 time, him a .747, I get a 2.3 60 to his 2.9, I am ahead pretty good, not looking at my tach it starts to cough and splutter, sh*t, the lifters pumped up at 6200rpm, I pedal and float gas to try to let it catch, 510 boy goes by me 3/4 track, van comes alive and I catch and pass him just at the line, me-15.7@87 and him 16@66??????
No changes, but I am thinking of my crappy 60fts and how it bogs off the line than catches, I realize I need more boost off the line and now I have hot slicks, I can try it. I have been launching at roughly 6-7 psi.
Line back up with 510 again????? and off we go, another wicked burnout, I launch at 11 psi this time, me a .334, him .887, It launches pretty hard, I feel this could be a 13 sec run, cut a 2.14, him a 2.33, I rocket to a 14.1@93, him a 13.7@104-little bugger has a turbo hidden under the hood. I leaned out pretty good in 3rd gear on this run.
Turn up the fuel pressure 1 1/2 turns and go back out. Another wicked burnout and stage, I launch at 15ish psi and holy sh*t, it pulled out of the hole like a freight train, I cut a 2.009 60ft, racing a Ion supercharged Ecotec, he cut a 2.47, It was pulling hard then the valves pumped up again, Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, slowed down and ran a 16.7@67 to his 16.0@98.
All in all, had an awesome night, van again was the most popular vehicle there and learned alot, my old cal was the problem all along and now, just need to play some more and get on the dyno. BTW, if your thinking of drag racing, spend the money and get the Quaife or OBX, they friggin rock,
A bud with his Rotary blew the turbo-first run, he had just had it rebuilt and on the way home, I was playing with a new Porche, he passed me so I pinned it and passed him, he wouldn't play though,
