I finally got her tuned after installing my bolt ons one by one. I'm pleased with the results and especially with the bottom end torque. I plan on hitting up the track this weekend so I will keep everyone posted! My best time so far was a 13.4 1/4 mile, so hopefully I can shave some more tenths off. Videos were taken from my phone.

I like those numbers! It's getting me excited for when I have to do my dyno.
The 1/4 mile of 13.4, was that time before the tune but with mods? I'm subscribing 'cause I want to see your new 1/4 time.

Nice. How do those forged TSW's feel?

Nice numbers man, Right on with what I would have made it I didn't part out ..
In for 1/4 times good work man!! BTW did you up the shift pressure? I was thinking about doing this in the spring when I put my "new" project together.

Good videos, my man. I'll be having mine done in two weeks or so. I can't wait. Hows the car drive since the tune? What type of tune did you get?

I believe at the time I just had HPS intake tubes with K&N filters and the grounding wires. This was on stock 18"s as well with the intake filters removed. I was surprised that I dropped from a 13.7 just with the grounding wires, but the colder weather did help. After that, I installed my wheels and RHFC however my time stayed about the same (weather warmed up a bit as well). I went to the track each time after installing the exhaust then CAI, but the weather was extremely hotter so I ran high 13's.

They feel nice and are lighter than the stock 18"s even though they are bigger. I suspect my time was a little slower because of the larger rims, but it could have also been the warmer weather and untuned mods. I do want test out the stock 18"s at the track again after this weekend.

Thanks! I'll post my time slips once I can find them and have some time. I'm not sure on the shift pressure, but I will shoot an email to my tuner.

Thanks, man. It drives nicely and I feel myself accelerating every chance I get. I haven't had a chance to practice launching since it has been raining. I got an UpRev tune.

Nice post, solid numbers too. I take it you never dynoed when they had just the tubes/filters/wires, correct?

Geoffrey_PNY

Correct. I only have a baseline dyno from a couple weeks earlier with a 30 degree temp difference.

Geoffrey_PNY

I'm getting closer to 12's! I'm the one on the right obviously, with 13.26. Next track day I will test out my stock wheels to see if they make any difference.



I also found my previous 13.46 time slip. I was running FI RHFC, HPS intake tubes with no filters in, grounding wires, and stock 18" wheels.

Darth Kinetic

You emptied your intake ? As in removed the filters?!?

Nice slips, 3mph trap gain in the 1/4 isn't too shabby! I would be interested to see how going back to the 18s will be... get some radials for that beast and cut a sub 2.0 60'!

Geoffrey_PNY

Yep, in my early quest for speed and before my CAI.

Thanks, the trap speed was the most noticeable difference. I should be going back in Feb and will put the stock wheels on the back. My 60' doesn't appear to be improvable since I cannot launch at higher rpms and I'm not really slipping of the line (7AT). The best times I have achieved are launching at 1300-1500 rpms and higher than 2k will bog the torque converter down. If anyone has other tips/tricks then I am all ears!

How about a higher stall TCC?
