Going to the track.....
I am going to the track in Valdosta Ga Friday night. I hope to run some good times .2000 max 5 spd turbo 8psi, I might bump it up to 10 or 12 while I am there, never can tell, lol. Any Ideas on some times?????!6 inch wheels and 245/45/r16 Tires, are drag radials but a sticky tire that comes factory on porsches. http://2000turbomax.piczo.com

ever dynoed the car?
any tires the come on any car from the factory will be worthless for drag racing
proboly somwhere in the 13s alittle over 100mph but thats just a guess need more spacific info to get a closer guess

Cool That doesnt sound to impressive. I want better lol, any ideas???? I am think of taking the boost up to twelve it is at 8 now.I am also gonna have someone else drive too that races alot more than i do. So hopefully some good numbers will come out of it.

Just practice driving is what I'm getting at. Maybe you will be really good right out of the box but most people arent. Also I was going by those dyno numbers you quoted. I know you said they weren't a real dyno but I was taking them as if they were. I would expect an 8psi turbo max to put down more like 340whp or so and trap like 108ish. With 108 traps you could get into the 12s if you drive it very well.

Sweet thanks nealoc, i hope so, I am going to have a guy drive that runs 11.43 in his integra, so hopfully it will be a good run, i was think low 13s because i do some street racing. but on a supervised road around here.I am gonna try it too do you guys think 12 psi will be safe?I dont have upgraded injectors but my car runs rich already?I have a cartech fmu and a safc2 .
#10
I would definately not up the boost to 12psi without knowing whats going on unless you like swapping motors. Going from 8-12psi is adding 75-100hp... you don't just do that because you think it might be ok.
#11
With out a proper tune 12 psi is a recipe for disaster. If our cars had a map senser it would be a different story, but with a maf and no timing control you will burn a valve or a piston in a heart beat. I would not go past 10 psi with out some kind of retardation.

with an FMU and stock injectors you can't just go turning up the boost 3-4 psi. Especially on stock timing. Not a good idea. If your at 8psi now then your injectors are most likely at 100% duty cycle.
I would guess mid 13's at 107-110. I would drive your own car, that is how your going to get better.

Just because our car has a MAP sensor (it does) doesn't mean it is used in the same capacity as using a positive boost MAP sensor with an emanage or standalone or other engine management (it's not.) Your engine management has to be set up to tune by MAP, which yours is definately not. Don't raise the boost man. Infact I'd be nervous beating on a turbo car at 8psi without knowing what your tune is, let alone 9, 10, 11, 12psi.

I had it tuned with the safc2, the guy had it for days, and i have a cartech fmu.I ran some 112 through it and raised the boost to 10, if ran great but the best run was 13.92 @100.02 and i missed a gear. My clutch was horrible, I am ordering a new flywheel clutch and lsd. Then I am going to get injectors and a walbro. Has anyone ever used a megasquirt?It has been tuned by a guy with a rolling dyno he had the car for like a week with a wide band also. Oh yeah i am going to order that too.

There's not many options for LSD. There's the stock VLSD trans you can get, there's Quaife but you'd have to find it used, and that's it. I think someone might make one of those phantom grip things but I don't trust those things. Nismo makes an LSD for the 94+ altima I heard, it is possible that would work, but no one really knows for sure because no one's tried it.
As far as your times go, we can't really analyze anything from that little bit of info and a botched run.

definitly needa clutch what one are you going to get
yes ive heard of MS what do you want to know about it
#21
I am not 100 percent sure what clutch would be good for what i am running. I want to know if anyone has used the megasquirt for fuel management.How good did it work,would you recommend another company? I also need to get some drag radials. I am gonna look for a lsd, hopefully i can find one. Here is another time slip.

Nothing really looks out of place in that second timeslip... it just looks like your car isn't making the power one would expect from 8psi. From 8psi I'd expect at least 300whp, more like 325 unless you have a really restrictive exhaust setup or something, but with that trap speed I'd say you are making more like 230-250whp. Something's not right I'd say.
I'd look into clutchnet clutches. They are typically a little more expensive than other brands though. If you are hoping for 400+ to the wheels (which I think is what you said somewhere) you'd probably want the 6 puck sprung hub that myself, mardigras, ian, and some others are using.

I dont thinkt he vias is working properly at all, I need to fix it i have fixed it twice and it keeps breaking. The car definitely pulls really good, and i think the times would have been better with diiferent tires. The car cut out a few times too from the filter sucking in on itself.I have some issues i need to work out but it will get fixed and be looking for some 12s here soon from me.The car has been dynoed on a rolling dyno at over 300 to the wheels.The car was hopping almost all the way through 2nd gear i mean it definitely has traction issues I am going to do a bunch of stuff to remedy this here soon.I am definitely looking for 12,s and be streetable.I need some help finding a new intake manifold or a new Vias i am tired of fixing mine.
