New 0-60mph RECORD... with proof >?

All right well guys I was thrilled today when I beat my record for 0-60mph today. I had the gtech in the car filled up at sunoco with some ultra 94 and figured hey lets do some tuning/racing/time trials.

So Mods are in my sig so I don't gotta list them.
THis was done in a full weight 2g AC PS BS all there i had my gym gear and my heavy as school bag and a full tank of gas too ;)

Now I apologize for the crappy quality picture it was getting dark out when I did the run and I had to turn off the flash cause the glare reflected too much on the screen BUt you can just barely make it out. THe bottom number is the 0-60 I will try and get a clearer pic later or just upload the data when I get my cord.
0-60mph in 4.157s 60ft 1.757s 1/8 8.2s

Now I know what you are thinking I can't see a damn thing ...
You are right...

Thats why instead of pulling a 0-60in2 moment I am backing it up with my DSMLINK LOG

At this point in the log you can see my speed is 0.00mph (middle column) and the time is 7.94s

http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j294/steviekallday/41602.jpg

At this point you can see my speed is 60.9mph and the time is 12.03s

WHICH if my math is correct ... And I know it is.
Puts me 0-60 in 4.09s \ With the Gtech reading 4.157 I would say this is Verified!!!!

This summer I am hoping to crack into the 3's! you guys will see ;)

hmm for some reason my pics aren't showing up so i just added links

Haha nice burn, 0to60 can do it in 2.3 seconds though... really... just ask him.

That g-tec thing seems pretty sweet. How much/where did you get it?

That is too funny but this thread is going to become another flame thread w/ statements like that. I know he talks a lot but seriously lets keep this clean since it is Steviek's thread.

Congrats on the 0-60 dude!!! I will shit a golden duck if you hit 3s and seriously we need some vids cause I deff. need my fix as I'm sure everyone else does too.

O well, you have a little more work to do to get to the 3's then. Whats the 1/4 mile on that car? Should be in the high 12's or very close to it.
Im very jealous of the AWD

steviek
03-23-2008, 02:30 AM
Yea thats exactly right high 12's 12.8's 12.9's on pump.
with bad runs taking me as high as 13.5's mostly cause my third gear is abitch and i miss it sometimes.
shepified tranny??? maybe soon.

Holy shit man, congrats. My GTech is on stanby cause i lost a piece that stabilizes it but its pretty damn accurate. if it is of its usually less than a tenth off.

Steve, can you find the small cap that tightens to hold bracket in the u[pright position? I can't find oneover the web anywhere?

steviek
03-25-2008, 04:28 PM
damn you lost that piece? Know what I would look for.. I would try and find the whole mounting bracket again rather than looking for the little piece my bet is no one has one. The entire bracket may be for sale somewhere and probably isn't that much.

yeap I missed this post before too bad. My file is on my computer at home with the attachments so I can't put up the net horsepower log until the weekend. so soon i guess should be no problem.

Yea I agree not even close.

dude that actually makes your car go alot faster and the sparks it generates create and extra combustion cycle in your engine.

Also did anyone else notice that "10 s" race had like 2 minutes of in car footage for each driver.

HAHA. This thread went downhill quick.


Also, how many gears do those cars have? This "10 second car" takes 2 minutes to do the race, and 20-some-odd gears to go through to get there. WTF?!?! I beta Viper takes long too, especially since it's RWD :lol:

ned032002
03-28-2008, 12:11 AM
Yeah because it doesn't have any traction so that makes it slower than a near Stock GSX. Hey 0-60, I think you should race pink slips against this infamous Viper and see what happens.

now that i think of it not one car in that race had awd right? cause the eclipse was a 420A and therefore fwd then there was the rx and I can't remember what else. But that explains why the race took so long no one had awd and therefore it actually did take them 2 mins and 20 gears to finish.

I like the this software setup, very detailed, yet simple to glance at. So, forgive my ignorance, this DSMlink is a live datalogger through the OBD port?

steviek
03-28-2008, 06:14 PM
you are correct sir. It comes with an adapter which transfers the data from the obd to a db9 output then I have another adapter to change db9 to usb cause no modern computers use db9 anymore. But it is fantastic software you can make changes on the go no problem and easily see whats up.

Also you can check/uncheck boxes so that there data lines are toggle either on or off and that can help you focus on things you are concerned more with in certain situations.

Thor06
03-28-2008, 06:18 PM
Yeah, its not just a data logger, it can make fuel and ignition adjustments, stutterbox, no lift to shift, anti lag, and a host of other fun things. Check it out: www.dsmlink.com

stutterbox?

That's some pretty cool options in a relatively user friendly format. :thumbsup: Sure as heck beats dealing with a tech1 or pathfinder. :(

So can you have this running live as you drive?

Thor06
03-31-2008, 12:46 PM
Yessir. You can make a pull on the street, pull into Hardees, review your logs, make adjustments and save the changes, then pull out of Hardees with your new tune.

A stutterbox is a rev limit that takes control under two conditions, A) when the vehicle is stopped and B) when the clutch is pushed in. This allows the person to pull up to the line and hold the gas to the floor, but a rev limiter keeps it at a desired RPM, I think 4500 rpm is recommended. When the clutch is released so is the rev limiter allowing the revs to head toward redline. The stutterbox and anti lag allow the car to build boost at the line which would help with 60' times and such. The NLTS (no lift to shift) is the same concept except it engages when A) the car is moving and B) the clutch is in. This gets the RPM's to a good shift point and combined with the anti lag keeps boost up between shifts. Those two things combined with the adjustable overall rev limitter qualify DSMlink's rev limiting capabilities as a three step I think, someone correct me if I am wrong.

The stutterbox, NLTS, and antilag are very powerful tools... I think I read somewhere that a normal street car can pick up as much as .25 of a second in the 1/4 mile with just those.

So, in a N/A or auto-transaxle, theese items are the non-existant?

Man, I feel like a newbie all over again. Only "real" exposure I've had with turbos is the inlaws srt4, which when you're looking at everything, it all kinda makes sense. So on his, he had this "black box" underneathe the air intake with all the hoses for this turbo junctioning at it. This item would be the same?

david-b
03-31-2008, 01:00 PM
N/As can still use a stutterbox and the NLTS (not from DSMLink though) but have no need for anti-lag (since we have none).

Seems like autos should still be able to use the rev-limiter, but since there's no clutch, you may not be able to use with DSMLink.

See, any real dsmer drives a turbo 5 speed, so I guess I really dont know. ;)

DSMlink is only available for turbo DSM's so where the NLTS and stutterbox can be used on NA vehicles (both available on Hondata for example), the antilag is useless for anything not turbo'd. Obviously the NLTS is obsolete for auto cars, and I am totally unsure about the stutterbox and anti lag. Between shifts in an auto the antilag wont have time to help anything and the stutterbox runs on a clutch wire, so unless there's some way to jerry rig it I dont think either of those will work with the autos... atleast not via DSMlink.

I guess I have no idea what you're talking about as far as a black box, but if its got hoses connected to it I'd guess its either a factory or aftermarket form of boost control. DSMlink cannot do this, but a $40 Joe P manual boost controller or $200 and some odd dollar Greddy Profec electronic boost controller can.

stutter box is by far my favourite. 1.7 60ft on a daily driven full weight car is very nice ;)

So in a nutt-shell, while you're 'staged' at the line, it allows you hold rpms at the start of the max powerband and builds boost for the launch.

steviek
03-31-2008, 01:55 PM
exactly almost effectively eliminating "turbo lag". On the line I built 8 psi of boost while my Rpm's are held at 5500rpm (my desired launch rpm) and my pedal mashed all the way to the floor. No feathering it to get it to the right rpm and boost on the launch equals great launches almost everytime.
