Not so happy with my track passes tonight. Took my car out to PIR and traction wasn't an issue tonight. Power and falling on its face after launch were. The last pass it almost completely stalled out. I was only trapping 111-112. I trapped 116 at Woodburn on my one pass. I didn't try launching without my 2step but I did notice my injectors were maxed out to about 118% at one point. It was nice to meet Larry (agformula) and check out his sick formula. I've got a set of greentop injectors I'll put in this week hopefully.

I've just tried dialing the afr in more. It's between 12.2-12.8 it was a lot richer then. I can't figure out how to get an afr error percentage histogram in hptuners so I've been slowly hand adjusting it and I have not touched the timing at all since I started.

I know you have the green tops but have you thought about swapping for a set of ls3? The injector data is readily available for those I believe.
Oh and bring your *** out to a streetcar syndicate event!

Great to meet you man.
Wish we could have had more time to hang out.
Car is really nice and you are a fast shifting fool!!
U and Mike could go head to head for the shifting champs of the PNW.
Look into a Wolfe sway bar. Will make a huge different in the launch.
Give the other injectors a try and lean it out some.
I found out my wideband sensor is dying so the fuel I added last night was not needed so that is why my mph was down.
Replaced the sensor and adding a second one on the driver side.
Also found my crank sensor wiring melted on the passenger side manifold by the starter.
On jack stands for the next week or so to fix these little things amd replacing fuel filters. Think I going to turn it up as soon as my license comes in.
Managed a 1.49 60 last night which while not awesome, was a nice surprise for PIR.

In another forum someone mentioned when their car launched hard his battery was rocking back and grounding out. This sounds like what possibly could have been happening to me. I have done pulls with my dad's ls3 vette that trapped 116 and I pulled on him on the highway. There's no reason my car should only be 60ft 1.9 with mickey Thompsons and the way it comes off the line.

I haven't had any luck hooking full throttle off of the two step. My best 60fts at Woodburn are 1.70 leaving at 4500 at part throttle off the two step . My rear is IRS so I cant say what shock setup will work for sure but I had good results going full stiff on the rebound and pretty stiff on the compression too.
I use drag bags in the rear springs and having less air in them worked better.
My clutch is a monster 2 ,3.91 gear and 26" hoosier bias ply at 13psi.
I had same results At 15psi tires and full stiff on single adjustable koni shocks.
I think a stiffer sidewall would work better for me with a heavy stick car.
Your running radials right? They were pretty inconsistent for me and hard on parts!

I am an auto so it is different for me.
2 step set for 3200, so leaving on no boost.
The trick for me was the burn out. I was not doing well until I got really aggressive.
Up to 6K in first, and 6K in second.
Poncho: what psi on your tires?
Also, what is the exact size?
