Ok, after i switched to "short" exhaust( thanks to BUDOBOY) and put in a 9.5LB BRAILLE battery, penny wanted to smash her 11.75 PB. Almost there....................... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBxW2KlsUp0 Getting closer........................... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FfUlN6VpxA And here it is!!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xmheR5OBoE But it get's even better................... Can't wait to see what happens in OCT with the cold air that we may get!! She was a pretty happy girl!!!
Extensions. May as well be open header. She drove the car 63 miles to the track, raced for 3 days(we stayed at a resort) and drove home yesterday. Everytime i say something she says "what?" lmao. Thanks jeff! It works good! lol Gonna catch ya one day ron!
niiiiiiice!!!! gotta love seeing these LMI users going fast!!!! congrats to penny and adam!!!! can't wait to see what you guys do when the weather cools!!!
Did you notice much difference running open headers ? Any noticeable difference in where the power peaks ?
I never did any data logs but, our/her best was 11.75 previous and all i did was drop the mid pipes and center section of exhaust. I already removed the mufflers and tips previously. I also switched to a 9.5 BRAILLE race battery as opposed to the optima blue top we usually run. I got about 6 passes out of battery before it went dead in staging lanes. I never charged the battery before i left though. I think the biggest gain was because of the extensions BUDOBOY suggested . I may be wrong though?
LOL.....She was texting me all the way to the track because she couldn't hear anything! her text, "WOW, this is pretty loud in here! You want to drive to track?" My response via text, "NOPE, you race..you drive it there" lmao
I would really love to do some dyno before and after runs..... I know the open pipes should change where the HP and TQ max out, could be its slight and it changes max torque from 4500 to 5100........ I would be interested in finding out myself. I think I might punch out the cats in my Kooks HFs and drop the catback and see whats up
I went from catback and cats to extensions and it didn't move the curve left or right at all I actually made more torque without catback too
