I bought a scanner just so you guys could see my slips Then I could not get the POS to work.. Finaly I figured out away around it though. I wanted to crop the pics because they are HUGE but my photoshop 6.0 decided to break at just the right time. So follow this link http://www.nissanx.net/gall/album20 and click on the picture and then click on it again. My 13.8 run is the first one, I am of course the car on the left. The second slip is of my 101.6 MPH trap, I am in the right lane there.



Also I scanend in two dynoes, one of which my car went into limp mode and also my VIM was not switching over correctly. The other dyno my car was running better but my manifold was still all screwed up. Take a look at how well my car holds power up top now. If I was to dyno again the plots would be much better and I would be making closer to 235-240 WHP. Trying to save now though so no new dynoes.


Ram air and a little exhaust tweeking are comming soon, expect to see a 13.6 second time slip shortly, haha!

 

 

LEARN TO CROP

And thanks Dude.

 

my bad.. i was so excited to see it i just clicked the link and read nothing you said

 

who had the trap speed of 108 mph?

 

That was a modified late model F-150 Lightning. He was running drag radials and apperently he has upted the boost a bit with his SC. He sling shoted past me in the 60 ft and then kinda just held his distance

 

What ever happened to the Z manifold???

 

Good freaking God that must be one hell of a track that a Lightning can pull off a 1.7 60' That kind of 60' is unheard of for a 5000lb truck. 12.4@108mph with a 1.7 60'. That's just amazing. I've seen the some of the more modified Lightning's at my track go 104-105mph, but they never run low to mid 12s. I want that truck.

Nice times... you paint that lip yet?

 

I bet that lightning was on at least DRs, if not slicks.

 

It was on HUGE drag radials.


Dave my track is known to have bad traction in general.



Lordrandall, thanks. The lip is not going on my car. I have a better plan

 

That is a fast freaking truck! I would not mind owning one.
Never the less good run on all motor. Keep it up.

 

you know the responsibilities that comes with fame right? tell us about the plan

 

New England Dragway isn't a slow track from what I've seen. It might not have a ton a traction, but the overall performance is there. I know that NED is where the quickest bonestock 96-98 Cobra ran (13.4@104mph, Bob Cosby). It's also where a handful of new Celica GT-S's have run 14.2-14.3s@99mph with just intakes and mufflers removed.

Believe me, I'm not trying to down play your car's performance. 13s in a NA V6 sedan is wicked, regardless of the track or conditions.

Dave

 

I know but I said I would keep my lips sealed

 

Once again.......congrats.

 

Nice running Ethan!

 

How are you going to do a ram air? Just use some tubing from the splash guard? Exhaust tweeking = testpipe?

 

look at his pics no headlight and extended pipe to the opening

 

i can feel this one already

 

 

We are running a poll to see if anyone REALLY understands him.

 

Oh I guess that explains the exhaust tweek too?

 

phatguy wins why the need for a test pipe when he has the rt cat???

 

lets get ready to rumble..

gentlemen.. plan your strategies

 

no thanks I just stated a simple fact about the pics.

 

I don't know? Why not ask people who switch from RT Cat to Testpipe? Not sure what other exhaust tweek he could do with out taking off parts of the exhaust. Why not let him answer smart guy?

 

 

Dont waste your time on phatguy. He will be banned soon enough.

 

Check out my other post to learn more about my ram air setup. I am considering making my cali-spec Y-pipe into a fed-spec one. I know someone tested this on a 2001 max and only gained 1 HP. I think at the very least I will loose 10 lb's of dead weight on my car and it really looks like it should help too. Now I just need to relocate my 02 sensors and pull off my front manifold .


And hey guys no more spaming please..

 

A testpipe would be a few pounds lighter than an RT Cat as well? Most people who go to testpipes are usually boosting but it might give you a little more top end espeically since you have the y and greddy.

No spam from me in this thread. Couple of kids amusing themselves I guess.

 

Well I draw the line with damaging the enviroment when it comes down to the main cat The RT cat(3 stage cat) keeps my car running clean even with out my pre-cats and thats the way I like it . However if my car was a race only car I would definatly go with a test pipe.
