Got the N20 hooked back up

Got the car tuned on the N20 for the new H/C setup. It put down 563rwhp & 585rwtq SAE on a 125shot. I am very happy with this combo. I made a few test runs with 1st gear lock out on to make sure the track and my little Nitto DR's where liking each other. Then I gave it a shot with 1st gear lock out turn off.....

11.13 @ 130.52mph on a 1.84 60' ..... tire pressure was set at 24psi.

Getting Better!

Well I made another trip to the track tonight and got to make 5 runs.

1st 12.39 @ 117.6mph on a 2.04 60'
2nd 12.31 @ 118.7mph on a 2.09 60'
3rd 12.14 @ 118.5mph on a 1.97 60'
4th 12.17 @ 119.2mph on a 2.03 60'

and last but not least......

5th 11.95 @ 119.1mph on a 1.86 60'

All runs were made with 28psi with my 275/40 17" Nitto DRs

The last run I finally found the way to leave the line with this new setup. I can't wait to get the 60's down into the 1.7's and hit the car with a nice size shot of N20

The temp on the 5th run was 72 degrees, 88 percent humidity, 29.9x barametric pressure.... not sure what the DA was

Sep 26

Made a couple clean runs with the new setup.

Here is a break down of my runs tonight...

1st run R/T .300....60' 2.02....12.33 @ 117.3
tires @ 30psi slipped the clutch @ 3000rpm spun

2nd run R/T .104....60' 1.92....12.13 @ 118.3
tires @ 28psi slipped the clutch @ 3000rpm bogged

And since I had the shifting issue last track outing, I was taking it easy between the gears, for me that is. I think my shifter problem is fixed though. Next time out I will try shifting at my regular speed and see what happens.

Oddly enough, I am very happy with the results this early into the fall season. I think some solid 11's N/A will come soon with a little more practice (been away from the track for over a year & a half)

Awesome SS. It looks great and so does your list of mods. It kind of makes me want to trade in my V6 for an SS.

Thanks for the comments. Good to meet you the other night also. You have a nice car. Maybe we can get together one day and go to the track . I have a few more things to do but I'm itching to go.
