4g63tcrazy's new setup for 2010 - Page 12

4g63tcrazy · 05-15-2010

Mine too after a deer hitting me and just for the fact that I gave up on keeping it clean. It looks clean as hell from a distance but once you get up close there are scratches and dents everywhere.. I hate it.

We def need to hit up the track. I plan on maybe getting some slicks soon. Hopefully I can just skip running 12's completely. I think that would be pretty bad ass.

lol, loved the car again today.

I love your built motor (stock bottom end + real head studs) lol.

Get a new WG spring and we can run again, i pulled a diff. boost level in every gear when we ran.

L19's ftw! Yeah I was knocking bad. I was getting an even 6-7 counts of knock after the dyno. On the last pull I tried adding 1 degree across the map just to see what would happen and apparently it was way too much and I forgot to set it back. My ecu would pull my timing into the 11-12's so my car was not pulling very well at all. We'll have to figure our shit out and go at it again. (and find a nice smooth road

)

One thing I was suprized about is I raced my buddy Joe who had the blue 4 door civic. He put down 501whp earlier this week and when me and him raced we were dead even from 60-130ish.

I gotta pull the turbo back off and fix the massive compressor housing boost leak. Then throw a tune on it for now, til I take it in to shane.

The car looked awesome on Sat! Sorry the numbers weren't what you were hoping, but the car really looks hot and put down damn good power none-the-less!

350 is damn good, i saw it do work.

Thanks Sheides! I'm sure my power would have been much better if my a/f wasn't in the 9's :/ I'm scheduled to dyno at DB June 3rd to let Shane do his magic.

Things I gotta do before I hit the dyno:

Get stiffer wastegate spring (stuck at 25psi)
Fix massive compressor housing leak and check system again for leaks
Save my pennies.

I see awd or a limited slip in your future...lol

4g63tcrazy · 05-22-2010

I cranked my boost controller knob all the way in. All I can get out of it is 27psi. It basically makes 3rd gear useless now though. Still trying to find where to get a damn 20psi spring for my wastegate, HKS's site is all sorts of wierd.

Still gotta take the turbo back off and seal the compressor housing. Pretty sure my exhaust is melting a hole in one of my couplers also. :/

Mounted some slicks on my race wheels I got from a buddy at work. They're hoosier 26x9x15's. They're pretty worn but still plenty soft. I set the launch control at 5500 and for the first time I actually got pushed back in the seat from a launch in my car.

I put together a quick vid. Enjoy.

Just curious, but why did you pull the e-brake after the pull? The car looks like it pulls pretty good

4g63tcrazy · 05-24-2010

If I brake too hard the slicks will rub the fenders. If you listen you can actually hear it in the video. Not to mention the road is short and I had little room to stop from about 115mph.
