Nice job man! I had heard about some of your issues. It's always something! Glad to see you're working through it all, and putting down some awesome numbers.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Thanks Kevin!
Thanks Brian. Just let me know when you're back in the cities so maybe a ride will make you want another dsm again :D
Thanks, haha had to ricer it up on the way home and made a quick stop.
That'd be nice, I really need a driver mod though.
Thanks sir! It does always seem like its something though.

I think the reason why my nitrous didn't work was because my solenoids were old. You could hear them click but didn't really feel anything move. So hopefully that is all thats wrong and I can abuse this motor some more

Re: Beater 2g
 

Congrats!
Did you have to use the boost a pump to make that much on e85 without nitrous?

Re: Beater 2g
 

Nice! I'm glad my radiator worked well :)

Re: Beater 2g
 

Nice numbers!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Fun day at the shop watching your car Brad.

Thats me creeping in the showroom window on your dyno vid!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Yep had that boost a pump on at what they call "rich." Thats the only thing that changed between last year and more boost.

Oh yea due, you are a life saver! Thanks again!

Yea that was a long but mighty fun day!

I'm pretty sure I figured out tonight that my nitrous wasn't working because of a bad relay. At least I hope it is only that, I'll find out on Friday for sure. I also think I'm going to have Shane order me a Felpro MLS headgasket:drive1:I was kind of thinking maybe put some springs/retainers in it while the head is going to be off so I can rev it higher but we'll have to see.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Nice one man. Your car is sick. I can't believe that motor is holding it

Re: Beater 2g
 

5xx?

Re: Beater 2g
 

Shane's tuning + nitrous = ftw

Huge thanks to Brian (1quick4) for staying super later and helping me put in my l19's and my headgasket the other night and Shane for the awesome tune and always staying late and helping me out. You guys rock!

Not too bad for a stock motor besides DKS cams, L19's, and a nice head gasket.

Re: Beater 2g
 

I seriously OFFICIALLY hate you.

Re: Beater 2g
 

What hg did you go with?

How much boost with that turbo to make those numbers?

Re: Beater 2g
 

haha thanks.

Went with a Fel-Pro Permatorque MLS headgasket which i got a pretty killer deal from Shane @ DB. Boost peaked at 33 and was around the 32 most of the run. Those numbers are with a little shot of nitrous.

Re: Beater 2g
 

lol, define little. what nitrous kit is it? It's making me re-think my thoughts of even running nitrous..

Re: Beater 2g
 

Nice numbers man!


Way to represent the DB stock motor mafia

Re: Beater 2g
 

Sweet!!!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Same combo im running, L19's and FelPro Permatorque, seems to be working pretty good.

Re: Beater 2g
 

damn stock motors. :)

Re: Beater 2g
 

This is a 3065 turbo right? Damn good numbers!!!

Re: Beater 2g
 

fu-king su-wheat! Those numbers are detarded.

Re: Beater 2g
 

That is awesome. how much of a shot?

Re: Beater 2g
 

Fantastic!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Fricken sweet! Crazy numbers this year from everyone!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Brad, member back when I had my dsm and you thought it was fairly quick...yea well um....uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wow.

Re: Beater 2g
 

amazing. :) maybe I should do my best to be a copy-cat.

Re: Beater 2g
 

Sweet! I'll be taking orders for stock bottom ends.

But really congrats

Re: Beater 2g
 

The car went 10.8 this weekend at 137mph and had its highest trap of 140. I still can't believe that it really went that fast on stock suspension and stock bottom end.

haha you should, we always joke I have a munchgsx stage 1 block and make more power than a lot of people with built motors. I also did a compression test tonight and 3/4 were 160 and #2 was 150 which I was pretty damn pumped about.

I'm hoping to send in my coilovers to get rebuilt tomorrow, figure out any way to get some weight out of the car, figure out a good tire setup, pray I don't blow up, and try and make it to the track at the end of the year with possibly a bigger shot and see what this bad body has in her before it blows.

Re: Beater 2g
 

The things ricers do to get into the 13's :nod:

It started out as just taking out the carpet to take some of the sound deading stuff out then kinda turned into might as well do this while I'm in here and now I'm left with a torn apart car. When its all put back together you should never be able to tell that there are a couple random brackets and some other little things missing. haha

The goal is to try and have the car weigh around or just under 3000lbs with me in it and not very much gas. That weight is without a passenger seat and the backseats though. When I weighed it up at BIR it was 3055 with me in it so I think its an attainable weight goal. If I can't I'll probably get some sort of after market seat when I have some money instead of that heavy 2g leather power seat.

I'm also buying some slicks this week, have my coil overs hopefully being rebuilt at the moment from tein, and I also have a bigger nitrous jet sitting on my desk waiting for the last track day at Cedar falls. Attempt to go big or go home right? haha

Re: Beater 2g
 

When is this event? I wish to be present..lol

Re: Beater 2g
 

Gawd damned ricers!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Time to start buying a carbon hood, trunk, doors, lugnuts, steering wheel, bodykit, etc!

Re: Beater 2g
 

Don't get him started. He's already been talking up a CF sunroof :lol:

Re: Beater 2g
 

how bout some lexan windows? at least replacing the rear hatch would take some major weight...

Re: Beater 2g
 

October 24th at Cedar Falls, should be a good time.
I learn from the best! :lol:
I've got a carbon fiber blitz body kit, extra light lime green paint coming, big aluminum wing because its lighter than stock, and a cool looking guy pointing decal for the side of my car.. Does the hp stickers add actually transfer over to faster track times or does it only make your street cred go up?
I would kind of like to get a carbon hatch and lexan rear window for when I go racing or ricering but I'm broke and the weight removing I did was free, just took some time.

Re: Beater 2g
 

tell me about it dude, i cant even afford a headgasket right now lol

Re: Beater 2g
 

Re: Beater 2g
 

I don't know if you have any video of your 140mph run @ BIR and I finally got a new computer so here it is...
