Hmm, low 12's are definitely not going to come for me until I get the new converter in which will be sometime after this weekend.

Just did some more tuning to, added 1deg between 0&4psi to try and get rid of the boost plateu, pulled a bit of fuel out from 2000-2500rpm coming on boost and took .1ms out from 5000 to 7000rpm and 10-14psi. It was basically at 10.6:1 for that whole time.

I don't think I am going to have any trouble trapping close to 115mph at 15psi with this turbo either. It certainly doesn't feel any slower than the old girl and is coming on boost a lot quicker as expected.

[-==L=a=N=c=E==-]

well me personally, got 14psi running at 12.5:1 AFR running a total of 30degrees of advanve from 2500rpm to redline of 6000rpm.

I've also put in 2 degrees more timing below 2500 to help with off boost torque and cruise which has help a fair bit.

In the process of filling in the 16psi load point, to get the AFR at around 12:1 and then pour some timing in, im looking at around 28-29 degrees advance from 2500 to redline.

So.... runs on the weekend will entail getting the launch right, and adjusting my maps.

I will be going to Willowbank on the weekend, but only to spectate. I will come and say hello if I see you around there.

[NO-WAY]

on the other hand for me was not so good
day started well

best RT :.404

Best ET : 14.7 @ 136 kph (85 mph)

got 4 runs in before i had a drama on the start line

story goes like this:
start burnout in 2nd gear
release brake , roll along a little
clutch in , foot off gas
all goes haywire from here on
revs scream up to rev limiter , (foot is off the gas)
switch off IGN , car contines to run even though switched off
(starter guy is signaling turn off the car )
i show the keys to show him i have!
they all stand back as the engine has been redlining for about 10 secs or so now
after a few loud bangs from the engine is screams to a halt
my head hangs in fear while i hop out and look underneath as do the fire mashall and starter guy
no oil (sigh of relif cause i havent caused an oil down )
push it back to to the trailer and pop the hood to look at ..
crank angle sesor cover has smashed into the arm of the sensor taking chucks out of the gear for the sensor
remove the cover
crank the engine , few unhealth coughs is all she lets out
on the trailer and home
my drive way is steeper the mt everst so unloading the car proves quite i nightmear but eventually get the car off and run the trailer back
my neghibours by now have heard me cursing at the top of my lungs come out to see what the noise is all about
20 mins later the engine is half out the car and i rip the sump off(thanks to all my neighbours who let a hand to get it out so quick , here i notice no4 piston is in not so good shape drop the crank out and remove no4 to see valve smashes all over the face of the piston , shine light up the bore to see few nice gouges in the bore wall

be4 we start with the if you did this , i have thought about it all since
u know

let the clutch out in 5 and stall it
i have the fuel pump on a switch , could of turned it off (risk leaning out)

so now ill have a ECU switch so kill it no mater what happens

and im yet to find the reson i still had IGN on power with the key off and out . have dissconted just about everything and its still on , so thats the hunt for tomorrow

PICS AS FOLLOWS:
first is about 5 secs be4 the mayhem starts
second is the result
3 is my 2 best slips (only got 4 passes)
well thats my lil story
