Losing to a Viper
I think I did pretty well for less than half the cylinders and on pump gas. Yes, I did ease out of the hole. First time launching the new turbo. http://media.putfile.com/dsm-vs-viper

Too bad he let up in 3rd.. Where my car shines. But yeah, my car doesn't like making power at all. I've got some parts sitting here waiting to be installed.
On my SCM61 I only managed 260whp on pump gas. So far from that setup, all I that's the same is the head, intake mani, and intercooler. Head's comin soon, I already have cams and SMIM waiting to be installed.
So if they don't make the changes I want, next up is the intercooler. If that doesn't make it, another new bottom end haha.

Re: Losing to a Viper
Man, hate to say but that race was over the first 100 feet. You got spanked. Next time launch the bitch. It may be a whole different outcome.

Re: Losing to a Viper
So launch it against a civic or stang.
At least you know you could ease it in a still win.
I know its about opportunity.!
