Kaan, some of us are planning a trip to Santa Pod as soon as the weather warms up; I'll pop you details once it's organised As far as I remember his built engine let go shortly after he built it and he was on a stock engine, he did great times when auto, soon as he changed to 6 speed he could not get in the 10's anymore. First RWYB of the year is on the 20th January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First RWYB of the year is on the 20th January. I would like to go mid year giving me time to do a few bits and get it mapped properly and not at a "safe" level for the stock auto box it had. Prefably after april when its not so cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What power was it running? A 10 could be achievable with more boost I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 2.1 60ft time, so I would guess normal street tyres? Certainly low 11's should be possible I'd guess. Edit: Ah just seen your sig, if that was drag radials you need to work on the launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Ah just seen your sig, if that was drag radials you need to work on the launch. Thats where I got confused, it certainly should be launching harder on drag radials but it depends on what the actuall stall speed is. Alot of these converters dont even flash to there rated figure.

Alot of these converters dont even flash to there rated figure. They need to be up to working temp to work to spec, if running big coolers without an oil stat, the torque convertor can't do what it says on its tin.

I also heard stall speed will increase with more power, of course only to its rated stall though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 YEs running MTs, im definatly sure i can run low 11s, just new to the hi stall, plus the gearbox bounces off the limiter when it changes up. Going to get the gearbox oil strainer changed and then work on my starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
