Deep in the 8's!

Ok, not really but I got it.
Should have been way more aggressive, but was also tuning my buddies car.
Good way to polish off the season.
Soft 60' Should have upped the launch, but when I did it just spun.

That thing is cookin' ! How much boost/timing?

RonSSNova Oct 15, 2017 08:25 PM

18 psi in low and 24 2nd on. It really kicks ass after the shift.
E85 and 17* timing.
I was leaving at about 6 psi.

svslow Oct 15, 2017 08:27 PM

Its working pretty good I'd say.

Outstanding, congrats

Congrats on the 8 second pass. Impressive for sure !!

RonSSNova Oct 15, 2017 08:44 PM

Thanks guys. I drove it there. 80 mile round trip.
Had a state cop on my ass for five miles on the way down. He must have come out of my trunk! Saw the big hat flipping back and forth as he moved right up on my ass checking on his computer......

Nice pass. That off a transbrake ? What converter and gears ?

B18B1LS1 Oct 15, 2017 08:57 PM

Congrats!!

RonSSNova Oct 15, 2017 09:04 PM

Footbrake off the two step.

gsxrred1000 Oct 15, 2017 09:08 PM

Damn I need your tune up. What is your actual timing in timing table when ur on 2 step and how much is 2 step taking out or adding ?

RonSSNova Oct 15, 2017 09:25 PM

The two step doesn’t control timing. I’ve tailored the timing table to ramp the timing down when I stage. So the timing is at 13 when the two step is on and I’m floored. It builds boost before the tree comes down

Nice job Ron. That’ll make winter a little easier to tolerate! We’re you on bias slicks or radials?

RonSSNova Oct 15, 2017 09:40 PM

MT 275 pros.
my buddy went 1.26 on his. Mine are old and the shocks not adj correctly on mine

hell yeah ron! got that 8! this nice and cool, autumn air makes 'em run good!

RonSSNova Oct 16, 2017 09:20 AM

Thanks guys. I’m actually a little disappointed in my driving as well as making adjustments to the car. The 60’ should have been much better.
Oh well, next year.

I also noticed oil dripping off the pan after each pass. My guess is too much crankcase pressure caused by the added boost and the fact that my breather setup is really sad. So some work to do over the winter.

Great Job! Videos?

RonSSNova Oct 16, 2017 02:32 PM

There actually are videos. When I get them I’ll figure out how to post here.
