Nealoc187 and I installed my MEVI last night, went well except for a wrong vacuum system connection.

Took it for a test drive last night and DAMN am I impressed...the car just pulls...and pulls, and PULLS!

Went to the track today....ran a few 14.5s and the on my last run of the day, I ran a 14.4@97.2mph....with a 2.14 60ft. time.

I give the MEVI my stamp of approval.

oh yea....BTW....we have a video of one of Neal's runs that everyone here might like to see.....we'll post about that later tonight

 

2.14? Were you on slicks?

 

I was on all-season street tires...

 

Jeez, so you are gonna tell us what Nealoc did or what?

I think I have a good idea........

 

In a few weeks you guyz can come to my house and help me install my VI

 

We want to TRY and make the video available first...and THEN post about it....but we don't know if we can locate a firewire cable to connect my video camera to my computer.

You'll find out soon

 

hurry up... i am growing impatient

 

Sweet!!! I guess you guys haven't read my dyno post in the 4th gen forum yet. I gained 53fwhp and 46fwtq at 6500rpms. No joke fellas, this thing works.

yeah every time i post about the VI i always say it gives 50 - 80 hp gained on top end.. i guess i was being generous.. but i begged my cousin to buy one.. because i know this **** is impressive..

 

Thats not an impossible time at all.

I was able to click off a 2.104 on michelin XGT-V4's

Glad to heard of the raise in trap speed. I know there is going to be a n/a 4th Gen in the 13's before too long.

 

i have a strong feeling thats what neal did tonite.. his prev best was 14.1 .. and he got the ECU.. so if he had run 14.0 .. he would have posted already saying.. so close.. so close

 

actually he DIDN'T get that ECU yet....BUT.....I think VeeTec is on the right track....

 

wow your engine is making good power. do you run to the top of 3rd gear or do you shift into 4th at the end of the 1/4 mi?

 

I ran out third and hit the rev-limiter when my car was about halfway over the line....worked out kinda nice.

 

After watching Neal and Brian run with their VI's today I know this will be my next mod.
I had to leave early so I don't know if Neal go the 13.9 or not, He was awfully close when I left. I was in the lane next to him on his first run and made me look foolish.

Mike it was good to meet you man. When did you leave? It was cool having so many Max's (and I30s of course) at the track.

 

I took off at 2:30. Had to be a work at 4pm, got there at 5
Congrats on the 13.9. I had a feeling you would get there.
I am way to embaressed to post my 1/4 times, I need Tons of practice on my launch. I missed a gear almost every run
I think we had 6 or 7 org members with their cars, was pretty cool.
See ya soon

So Nealoc broke 13s?!

and is this without the ECU?

Just wondering how well you can do with all available Naturally aspirated mods...

 

Good question... JWT ECU, UDP, catback, ACT clutch and maybe cams if they ever come out. Hmmm I wonder

 

OT- What about the GTP (Brian I think) who came out there with us. 14.0 1/4. Smaller pulley, intake, cat-back. That was pretty impressive!

 

hey brian, are you going to be at busse woods on saturday? i know bobby will, as well as just about everyone on the .org within 500 miles

 

Brian were you running the BFGoodrich GForce TA KDWS tires on the 16" SE rims?

 

He was running on my other 2 millenia wheels and the crappy general 500treadwear tires.

 

nah...I won't be there...I'll be down at U of I for the Illinois - Purdue football game....sorry guys!

 

it's alright. i have a few friends down there; it's a nice campus.
