Made 859 whp on my Talon with a PTE 6266 - Page 3

EclipseGST · 09-09-2012

Yeah... John Wood. He has a nice setup.

I want it to stay a 5spd too. I think I've talked him into rebuilding the manual gear box while piecing together an auto setup.

He NLTS into 4th but he turned off the clutch cut in link so the car was bouncing off the rev limiter from 8500-91xx and when he let the clutch out, there was just too much for the gear to hold. He is use to keeping his foot on the clutch pedal and just that little amount of pressure causes the clutch switch to activate NLTS in link, so it is constantly on and creating a 6k rev limit, thats the main reason he turned it off.

I want to try to fab something up that will allow the sensor to have more travel so he can be more comfortable with the clutch cut on, that realistically should help keep 4th gear together for longer than 3 passes.

This car is bad ass!!

Great numbers Shane, I'm jealous you can get E98 out of a pump down there! Tha power band is huge, what is the exhaust housing on it? We're you out of gear at 152mph? Cause it sounded like limiter trough the traps?

Are you planning on sticking with the 5 speed?

evotuner · 09-13-2012

wow thats some crazy powa, congrats on the build....hope to see this thing sometime

EclipseGST · 09-13-2012

The E98 is in a 250 Gallon tank that you have to pump it out of but it is available every day which is nice...

T3 - .82 exhaust housing.

Not out of gear, if you look at the vid, you can see him cross the traps and keep on it a ways until the rev limiter. Close to being out of gear but that shouldnt be an issue anymore.

I am rebuilding the Trans this weekend as long as we have the parts in by then. Going with an OEM 4th that is suppose to be stronger than the Evo III 4th gear and 6mph taller which will help with not hitting the limiter through the traps.

Just need some seat time and he'll have a 9 in it no problem!

turbotalon1g · 09-13-2012

Great news, good luck, hope it gets to make some more passes this year.

EclipseGST · 09-13-2012

Oh it will... Ordered all the trans parts from Tim Zimmer earlier this week and they should be here by this weekend. Put it together and figure out the shims and order them next Monday hopefully, take a day or 2 to get them and it should be back together by this time next week!

Any thoughts about getting 4th shot peened and cryo treated?

EclipseGST · 09-13-2012

That would be sweet if I knew a place around here that could actually do it without being down for a long period of time...

I would actually like the intermediate shaft shot peened and cryo'd over anything if I could get it. Thats what actually lost all the teeth. 4th gear actually just chipped a few teeth but I can imagine that just happened because the intermediate shaft was shred into a million pieces.

Sweet looking forward to that!

5 speed FTW, all these auto cars and not one of them in MN has went quicker than a manual

What kind of tires is he using seems to spinnnnnnnn 1st and 2nd hard?!

EclipseGST · 09-13-2012

M&H Racemasters...

Unless he gets sick of the car and decides to part it out, the car should be getting an auto over the winter!

URV8SUX · 09-13-2012

So it's going to go from 10's to 13's like the rest of the auto cars here in MN?

EclipseGST · 09-13-2012

Hopefully not but we will see. All it takes is the right settings to get it up on stall and boom... low 9s. lol

Says the guy that has owned his car for 6 years. I've only had mine for 2. Next year I'll put down a 10 and you can quit your bitching.

Lol I didn't even think about you!

SHOTS FIRED!

Caugh Santa

Regardless I like the car keep up the good work!

**Goat Blower** · 09-13-2012

There should already be a threaded adjustment to push the clutch pedal switch back a bit, if not, make a bracket to mount it to activate with the clutch on the floor.

I don't know if the cryo treatment would help any here, I think the clutch cut would help immensely.

lol, he is giving up on his car it sounds like. He should of left it a 5spd for sure.

I think steve is right, there is an adjustment for the switch itself.

Any dates in mind for the track? I'd like to come and see some faster cars for once.

The problem is, by the time you hit the switch, you're pretty much already in the next gear and if you lift the clutch a half an inch off the floor, the clutch is still disengaged but the car will jump back up to redline.

I was thinking of some sort of pressure switch on both sides of the shifter. So when he pulls it to 2nd/4th and when he pushes to 3rd, it simulates the clutch switch.

For now I think he is just planning on lifting to shift.

That should be a lot less harsh than using a clutch cut or not lifting hopefully keeping it together longer than 3 passes.

what happened to kevins car?

santa · 09-13-2012

The stall wouldn't work right at pg... cause my exhaust wasn't on the car. It works great now. So, ill see what she will do soon.

Ps. Nice numbers out of that 6266!!!! Let r rip!!!!
