Are you experienced enough to NAIL down my RWHP/Torque/ET Time?

Default Are you experienced enough to NAIL down my RWHP/Torque/ET Time?

Taking into account the mod's in my sig below, how much power/torque do you think I will make on my first dyno? If you predict within 4 RWHP AND 4 lbs torque AND get my first ET time within .4 seconds, well, you can have my 3.23:1 OEM ring/pinion gear set (with bearings and kit) that came from my '99 T/A which only has 28,000 miles on them and they look like new. I will pay the shipping, as well. Dyno run and time slip will be posted prior to 06/30/04.

Since my car will have a tune when it's dyno'd, I will gladly substitute my '99-'02 Superchips MAX Programmer for the gear set if you would rather have that in leiu of the gear set.


If more than one person guesses all three parameters within said tolerance above, the prize will go to the closest participant.


Key thought: It also has 245/50ZR/16 Goodyear Eagle HP Ultra Plus tires which are dry traction rated 8.7 (on a scale of 10) and I'm in Central Florida as far as sea level is concerned. I'm said to be a very effective driver. Good luck and may the best man win.

That sounds a little low and it feels a lot stronger to me, but, if I'm wrong, then, you may have a set of gears coming your way.

Default Updated sig

I forgot to include the shorty headers and the Superchips programmer tune in my sig. If Irk and Donny would like to adjust estimates, please do so. I apologize for my mistake ... sorry guys.

Assuming you mean the first pass you make, not your best ET.

ET : 13.2
Dyno: 333 rwhp

Default Updates ... please submit your calculations before 06/15/2004

OK ... here's the latest. Please feel free to estimate my first dyno and ET times, based on the mods in my signature below. And thank you for participating.

Member Name

RWHP Estimate

RWTQ Estimate

¼ Mile ET Estimate



Irk322

343

350

12.91



C4VetteLS1

333

????

13.2

SEE NOTE ****

Berno

332

346

12.95

SEE NOTE ****

LittleDonny

343

347

12.9



JRP

323

335

13.2



**** NOTE – Due to the late update of my signature, please feel free to update your numbers, anytime. Current numbers will stand unless you update. If you update, your updated numbers will stand.



Guidelines

You must be within 4RWHP > 4RWTQ > .4 of ET(as stated) to win the 3:23 gears. This is my T/A‘s 3.23:1 OEM ring/pinion gear set (with bearings and kit). They are flawless with only 28k miles.

The ET used will be the average of my 1st three (consecutive) runs at the drag strip.

If no one wins, there will be a nice consolation prize for participating.



Thanks,

JEB99TA.

If you're in Central Florida, I think everyone needs to rethink their estimates. Our weather has been near 100 degrees lately and the humidity has just begun to set in. If you're going to dyno and run and OSW, I think:

315 RWHP
322 RWTQ

13.450 @ 105
