We had a great weekend at The Texas Mile in Victoria running car 120 a 2006 Z06. Would like to congratulate Bobby Weige on his new best of 218.9mph and his great driving. Every pass was 213+mph this weekend with 10+mph head winds. We managed to speed up every pass with just tuning changes until we maxed our fuel system keeping us from hitting our 220mph goal.
I would like to thank everyone who fought the wind and cold with us this weekend, it takes some great friends to help from Thursday-Sunday.
We have ran this 400" Dart LSX from Scott Herzog at Arrow Machine in Brenham at 200+mph at the last 5 Texas Mile events and just changed the oil and plugs. We are about at the limit of our blower but we are just getting getting started on making power with this motor. It makes tuning so much easier when you have such a solid engine to work with. Besides 30 runs at the mile all at over 200+mph it has countless Dyno pulls on it making over 1,000rwhp.
It still has the stock e38 ecm, running a 3 bar map SD OL tune we did with EFI Live. We use one of our custom autocals with serial wideband inputs added for logging.
Im not even using a custom efi os, just tuning the virtual ve tables. In efi live in E38 they have 3 VVE tables for OL and 3 for CL.
NA, (15 kPa-105 kPa)
2 bar (15 kPa-201 kPa)
3bar (15 kPa- 255 kPa)
Thats just what they are labeled in the software, its obviously not a true 3bar.
