Best Bang for 2500

[zach_435]

yeah of course i did.

I also tried regular drive mode, sport mode, and sst my fastest time was achived in regular sport mode.

The car seems to be falling off from second to third almost like it would slip the transmission. I sent torrie my data logs so hopefully he will see what was going on.

my tires would barley chirp on the launch so i wasn't getting tire spin and i have decent 60 fts.

Im also on the stock exhaust.

[zach_435]

but i agree i was expecting to be in the 12s

Your 60s are actually a bit better than mine but your numbers fall short after that.  Torrie will tweak it.

Zach Definitely need to get her dialed in,is this with a 93 octane tune? check to see if your plugs are gapped per tuners spec's preferably 0.028-0.030,not sure if you have a 170 stat installed but should help a bit in hot weather,also did you remove the engine cover?Preferably  1/4 of gas in the tank? no worries after a few revisions from Torrie you should definitely see some better numbers,BTW might have to move this Topic.  Z   

[zach_435]

this is on a 91 tune.

But i was noticing that too when i look at other members time slips that my 60fts are showing on peoples slips that are in the higher 12s hopefully with the revised tune torrie just sent me it will do better.

And DA about the time i did these 2 runs was 1434

I've never been down the track in any EB car, but I'd say your ET looks pretty darn good for your MPH.  ET is driver.  MPH is vehicle. 

A 93 tune should make a fair amount of difference.

My point exactly

a 1.8 60' and AJP is saying a driver mod
91 doesn't help and Torrie seems to be very conservative on his 91 tunes. Some more revisions with him will get you into the 12's

Yes, I see 12s in Zach's future.  I have no real experience with Torrie, but based on what I see on Facebook and other forums, he can review a log, send a revision and it will have a dramatically positive impact on the times.

Alright lol....wear  your race boots.

Post a log if you want...maybe i can tell you what i see in relation to others....and if i recall you selected a tire that was shorter than stock so you should have a nice mechanical advantage from gear multiplication that i would think could help more than others

[zach_435]

here is my latest log with the revised tune.
