Track Tuning for this weekend

[steviek]

Got a couple quick vids of me prepping for the track this weekend.
Of course I will update you with the Numeros!

I only am giving you the sample from the first two runs cause I don't want to ruin anything. (these are 60 pulls)

Leave questions or comments and feedback/ratings

See you at the track

Steviek
all day!

Yea second launch was good but my shift was too slow. Bah well didn't make any records today but I think I am getting in pretty good shape for Friday!

Those cam's make alot of diffrence?

[steviek]

yea they certainly pull harder in the 5000-6000 range unfortunately I think after that I lose a lot of power being on the stock IM.

Stevie, what are your 70-90 times in DSMLink?

[steviek]

2.8s

[tfoti]

Ok. I posted in a thread on the Link forums about the HP/TQ estimates. It includes a log that i took a little after my 50 trim install showing a 2.18 70-90.

According to that thread they say the original poster's 2.2 is about 370-400hp. I just don't believe that i have that much power at 14 psi. Maybe you can find it on there and take a look at my log.

[steviek]

yea i jsut read your posts and looked at your log. You are flowing less air than me so to be making soo much more hp than me it can really only be two things. A you are a ton lighter than me. B your speedo or props are incorrect.

[tfoti]

I don't have A/C or spare tire. Other than that I don't have anything major removed.

There are no props to change under the "speed" value other than changing it to metric. Or were you referring to a mechanical issue with it?

[steviek]

no I was talking about getting the right aspect ratio for your tires andsuch
also the right drivetrain loss etc

Should have bought the JM SMIM I had along with it.

You know what I wish I had was it for a 2g head? You did sell it right? Cause I will buy if you still got it.

[scottsee]

Yeah, I sold it ages ago. it was the 2g pollished race manifold w/ nitrous bungs.

Music sounds familiar...

I also just realized how badass the speedo looks when its in kmh instead of mph and the needle just flies to the top. Gives a warm tingly feeling right in the ballsack.
