Default Track results are in!!!!!

Made 4 passes today, track was hooking well. Best pass came with 2 step at 4500 rpm, left at around 8 psi.
60 ft. 1.51
1/8th 6.25
1/8th 120 mph
1/4 9.50
1/4 150.05 mph
It would dead hook, and then hazed the tires on this pass through first gear.
I have stock shocks and springs on the car, and I feel that is the fix for that. I will order a set of double adjustable AFCO's tomorrow.
Boost was set on 17 psi on this pass, and it felt awesome. This was a great baseline test, and we are planning whittling the 60 ft. down from here. The car ran perfect, with no issues.
Videos will be uploaded soon, I am too tired tonight. Not bad for a street car, huh?

Excellent pass. What size and type of tire are your running and do you run them on the street and how do they work? Still trying to figure out what tires to run on my car.

I am running 325/40/18 M&H drag radials. With the C5 ZO6 chrome wheels. So far so good, the tires seem to work well. Yes on the street they are excellent.

We did not have one issue yesterday, coolant stayed where it was supposed to at 17-18 psi and 24* timing on E85.

Thanks, I am getting ready to call Madman and ordering the Afco's, I believe that will help dial in the unloading of the tires 50 foot out. Add a couple more psi at a time.
The window net will be here today, working on getting a parachute, a couple other small details to wrap up, and it will be a NHRA legal street car good to 8.50's.

Smokin'!! You can hear the tires hazing down the track. Shocks will be the hot ticket. Are you getting fitted for a suit? LOL

I am looking into changing out ecu but so far not sure what to get. Was interested in aem as its plug and play but supposedly it can't give obd2 codes and just spent 600 plus on three interceptor guages. LIke to monitor knock and all that in real time and without a laptop.
Does bigstuff three output od2 data thru the dataport..does it have traction control like aem or fast xfi? I would assume it has two step, antilag? Can it run low impedence injectors without an add on box. Is it plug and play like aem?

It does not communicate to the OBD2. It can with a harness from Speed Inc. allow you to keep the factory ECM in the car to run the stock gauges, might be able to keep emission stuff happy, I don't know on that.
You can get the anti-lag and traction control option, they come together. That will be an upgrade that I will look into soon. They will run the low impedance no problem. I street drive 160's with great drive ability.
It is plug and play to all the sensors, and simple fuel pump and fan connections, and a + and - to the battery.
