Re: my 1/4 mile time

It's probably fsater with the bad O2, LOL! 1.8's is good on a stock clutch, best I did was 1.72 on worn shit tires and stock clutch.

Re: my 1/4 mile time

The o2 sensors are ignored at WOT, and the LTFTs should be as well. So it shouldnt affect your times.

I'm not sure why you would say this. I've been launching at 5500 rpm with up to 16 psi on the stutterbox for the last 4 years, 6000 is not an uncommon launch rpm either. Sure, this will wear the clutch out more than if you drive the car like a pussy. But this is racing we are talking about. Doing it once or a few dozen times wont ruin the clutch unless it was already completely worn out, or if you slip it way too long like a bonehead

Re: my 1/4 mile time

Just to continue that thought, I used to get a full year out of an ACT2600 launching at 5500 rpm, about 15 psi on the stutterbox. Thats 35000 miles, over 200 track launches, and countless street launches. Lately I've been getting shorter life out them partly because of problems with tranny input shaft seals, and partly from increased power (and still full weight 2g). Just to give some more perspective on it.

Re: my 1/4 mile time

I "launch" at 2000 RPM thinking im deshiznit dude, i cant launch for shit either, wheel hop scares the life outta me. it happens every time i launch so i just dont launch anymore. most races are from rolling stops so...oh and on the freeway, which is always fun unless theres a piggy involved.

Wow, that's good. I've always underclutched my cars, back when I was still running 11's I only had a 2100, WAY overtaxed... I'd get about 20,000 miles and 70-100 or so track launches out of it. I'd launch at about 5600 no stutterbox.

I got real good at swapping friction discs! Glad ACT sells em seperate, not like Centerforce,them dicks won't sell a friction disc, you have to buy the plate too.

Re: my 1/4 mile time

Went to the track again last night and did better.
I ran [email protected]. Still the same with no other mods as listed. My 0-60 foot was 1.884
