mas28O Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Just got back from the track (Sacramento Raceway) and I had some good runs. I still need to work on the tuning. My car was shifting at 5200 and I need to bring it up to about 6100rpm. I am going to try and get some dyno time in next week. 11.812 1.68 60 ft 7.49 1/8 @91mph 11.812@114.4 All motor I think that I can get the car down to 11.4 with some dyno time. The R230 is workig good. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRAD D Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Nice times, what kind/size of tires did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mas28O Posted November 6, 2003 Author Share Posted November 6, 2003 Engine-- I ported the stock heads and put in a small cam. I still have the 24lb injectors but I have some 30lb ready to go. The car is not tuned at all and it is only shifting @ 5200 so I am not in the power band that long. I am at about 5000 rpm at the end of the track. I am using 235 drag radials 26" tires and as Scottie said it is all in the 60' not the power. I also pased tech with my new roll cage and 5 point harness that i put in last week.

BayAreaZT Posted November 6, 2003 Share Posted November 6, 2003 Congratulations Mike Those are impressive numbers. 60 ft is killer. Are you using CVs with the R230? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie-GNZ Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 While the trapspeed seems low, it is not that far out of line for an NA with a quick 60'. Key is that he gained 23mph in the 2nd half and that is a positive indicator. If I guess the weight w/driver at 2,750lbs, that's an estimated 320rwhp. Mike, can't you launch with the shifter in 2 and shift the 2-3 manually at your desired RPM? If the cam raised the powerband any, you have lots to gain but running out 2nd to a higher RPM and staying in the meat of the power curve in 3rd. Would love to see a video of the car launching.

mas28O Posted November 7, 2003 Author Share Posted November 7, 2003 Scottie I just need to program the ecu some more. The day before the track the car was shifting at 6500 so I then programed it for a lower shift point but I went to far with it. I want to get it to the Dyno before I drive to Texas for 2 weeks. I think the 30lb injectors might help. I just need to put the WBO2 on it for some tuning. I would like to see the MPH in the 118-119 range. BayAreaZT The R230 is out of a Q45 and I am using the cv from the Q45 also. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mas28O Posted November 10, 2003 Author Share Posted November 10, 2003 No pics, but I will be at the Dyno on Monday so I can find out how much HP I am making before and after. And then I will be back at the track Wednesday (Sacramento race way). Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nic-Rebel450CA Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 Have you tried shifting manually? I'd love to see how much better of a time you could get. I never new there was anyone with an auto that would let the transmission shift itself when racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
