Default BOOMCASE

Hi Boomcase,
Your tines are impressive with the TCI3000.
I now have mine from Jeg's and plan to install it tomorrow.
How do you launch - brake stall or flash it?
I'm hoping for a nice punch but very mild on street
Thanks.

With my 273s the car likes the flash up better than loading the converter.I braked stalled it to 2900 and the 60ft dropped my car likes the just smash the peddle launch better.It pulls only 1.80 to 1.85 shorttime all day.But ill take it.It hooks on the street the same way so it works well.Need to talk drop me an Email. good luck on install.

Street tires are useless <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Hoping to get some BFG DR's to hook
and get a reference time (using G-Tech Pro)-
no "official drag strips" here on island <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
I'll let you know how it goes <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" /> hopefully

Got the BFG's..almost as useless..but since there is no track, let alone "track prep" <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> understandable.
Anyway, the best I could get was 14.16 s @ 105.7 mph, spinning all thru 1st. That was launching at idle and flashing the converter (about 3100rpm). A friend (a mid 11 sec Z - N20)suggested trying some VHT. He feels my car should be good for 12.9-13.2 sec. Because of !track, high temps and avg 90% humidity, our times are probably as much as 0.5 sec slower than in USA.
