New Car New Build PART 2
Yeah that video was a tease.
Anyhow. I went to the track tonight. Made it a hole 30minutes befoe I decided I had to run the car. Wasnt really prepared. I just lined it up babied it out of the hole and let it eat at the top of 1rst gear.
Here is the Slips:
The night didnt really go as planned. On the second run you can see that the MPH really dropped off. Trouble stuck again. I blew the pressed in upper radiator hose out of the water pump. Never seen that one before. Anyway, the MPH shows the car has potential. I just have to get everything sorted out. Both runs were on 7lbs of boost, 11.5:1 A/F, and 17* degrees of timming.

Yeah I fixed the timming 
. It felt nice to be able to run the car. I wish the second pass would have stayed together. It felt real good. I just have to get the car moving the first 60'. Been a while since I was int a turbo car. Gotta get used to it again. I topped off the tank with 110 leaded before going to the track. I still have alot of tunning to do and suspension adjustment to make. I just have to keep all the other little things in check first.

Water pump got replaced. I swapped the 10lb spring into the WG while I was at it. Made a few changes to the VE via the XFI, and me and a buddy went out for a drive. rolling into the throttle in 2nd gear gives an impressive tire spinning smoke show on the 315 BFG DR's. We decided to make a sprint down the interstate to see how 3rd felt. To say the least it feels like a raped ape. It pulls hard and fast. I need to get it on the dyno once and for all and see what its putting down on 10lbs.
For what its worth. the interstate log showed 11.5A/F, TPS 70%, MAP 180's, Timming 17*, Inj DC 89% (Motorn 60's).

Thanks guys. Hopefully I will be able to get in on the dyno tomarrow. I hope I can nail down some decent numbers. It felt nasty tonight on the street. It is Buick GN week in Bowling Green. Lots of fast cars out. Had to come on home before I got in trouble 
.
If I can get it on the dyno I will have pics and vids as well as the graphs.
Wish Me Luck.
