Well Today was a Fun day. Went to Moroso for the First time. Wasn't able to race cause I wasn't running slicks but still fun none the less watched some cars run 4.9@150mph in the 1/8th mile and then hit up the GO-Kart Track at Moroso.
The rest of this is all Fiction:
Anyways to start on the way up there I was stopped at a Light and a Modified Porsche 928 Flew past me trying to make a yellow. Had a loud exhaust and really had some get up and go as it he canned it through the light. Luckly right as he went through my light turned green, I start to catch up to him "slowly" as to not scare him off, he sees me coming and I get to about 2 lengths behind him when he punch's it. I happened to be in a 3rd gear at probably 6K RPMS as I was already trying to slowly catch up. And here is a video I found a long time ago of someone else who must have had the same type of race but this would give you and idea.

Logs showed: (peak Power) 22psi@92oct Creaping to 25psi by 9K
Knock:0.0
Timing:14.2 deg
InjDuty:90.5%
A/F Ratio:14.47:1
RPM: 8701 rpm
Front 02: .94V
CoolTmp: 210F
IntTemp: 85F
AirFlowlb:56.8 lb/min
AirFlow: 429.1 g/s
Airflow Per Rev: 2.96 g/Rev
Now Onto A Tech Question:
How do I get my DSMLINK to give me the Fuel trims up to 9K instead of 8K?
from 8-9K my rpms go up and down the entire time while climbing in rpms looks like this:
8500,8300, 8650,8210, 8700,8540 rpms. I don't get it. The Airflow keeps climbing but the rpms are speratic.
Back to the excitement:
On the way home from Moroso a WS6 with Skinny's and Slicks and a Cage pulls up to me on the highway. (wasn't ready with the camcorder otherwise I would have filmed it) Anways He Revs up on me, and I downshift into 3rd at like a 45mph roll) I was really in low rpms so I punched it as I new it would take a while for the turbo to spool, and I started to pull a head slowly put about 1 length on him(on like 7psi 4400rpms slowly going up to 10psi by 5200rpms) when he hit his Spray. He was pulling like a bad out of hell, got to about 2 lengths in front of me when my turbo finally went into full spool, and I held him at 2 lenths all the way through 4th. When he shut it down. We gave each other the thumbs up. I wish I'd asked him what he was running in the 1/4 that night that way I knew where my car would have been at. But Jenny and my Brothers wife were in the concord behind us and said it was an awesome race/extremely close once we got moving.
