**Halon** · 04-24-2013

Good stuff man! I wouldn't be worried about your engine so much, but I wonder how your transmission will shift at 10k.

Yeah the engine will be fine. I have a PTT twin disk clutch and a stage 4 shep tranny so theoretically it should shift at 10k lol. But I'm not sure how many miles are on the tranny so well find out ha. I know swift wound her out to 9500. So once she's tuned we can mess around and see how it shifts

**4seasons69** · 05-02-2013

So a little update on the car. Last Saturday I was going to take it out for a drive and the belt was squeaking pretty good. I figured it just needed to be tightened but come on its me and my talon that would obviously be way too simple. It looks like the main mounting bolt for the alternator broke. Yes the bracket did appear to be just fine lol. I haven't actually dug into it yet I've been sick of this car ha. I'll be looking at it tomorrow night or Saturday morning.

Also I have a call in to get back on the dyno so I'm just waiting to hear back when we can get her back on the rollers.

Keep putting easy miles on it, at least now you can do some light/low boost pulls with it.

**4seasons69** · 05-03-2013

Low boost? What's that? Low boost on my car is 35psi lol.

But yeah I hear ya its nice to finally be able to drive the dang thing! I should be ffinding out today when I can get the car back on the dyno too

Hope it gets on the dyno soon. At less you can drive the car now and you were able to fix your problem. If you can put down mid 700 HP at db you will be a fun race for the liter bikes. If you can bang some gears i am sure you will walk the bikes. Josh's evo would of done work if he was banging gears. Can't wait to see this car in action. Good luck on the dyno next time.

Dyno time is officially set. I'm getting back in on Tuesday.

As for banging gears we'll see how the tranny shifts when I can actually beat on her. Not sure I'll put up a good fight for the liter bikes on the tires I have on the car right now. I think I'll have to look into getting some drag radials

**goodhart** · 05-03-2013

Save the banging of the gears for the track

The track won't be until this fall at the earliest. Unless someone wants to donate some slicks and trailer me out there for free

**goodhart** · 05-03-2013

I thought you had slicks!?

I do but I don't have rims for them. Plus I have them posted for sale right now. If I end up keeping them I'll eventually get rims for them otherwise if they sell I'll probably just get some drag radials for my kosei's

**goodhart** · 05-03-2013

Are they 16's or 17's? Just get some of the M&H Racemasters and use them for the track and street.

My kosei's are 16's. That's what I was thinking. Or at least some type of drag radials. Drag radials might not perform as good at the track but this car will be seeing limited track time for probably the next few years. So i really don't need a dedicated set of track wheels and slicks

35 is low for a 6766, that birch will do 50!

Lol touché. But an untuned 35psi isn't worth the risk ;-)

turbotalon1g · 05-04-2013

I thought it was tuned at 35?
I mean I thought Shane tuned it at low boost?

We were getting such a big drop in fuel pressure he couldn't really tune wot. I mean if my fuel pressure issue is fixed if I do a pull right now it should be dumping a ton of fuel and go really rich. I'm getting back on the dyno on Tuesday so I figure I will just play it safe and wait till the tune is finished. Hell I've waited a year already what's a few more days lol

turbotalon1g · 05-04-2013

True. Make sure you learn something when you dyno, that way if something happens on the street you can adjust your tune and save your car.

URV8SUX · 05-04-2013

Good luck, hope you can get you goal!

Watch out for the liter bikes there can be a 10-20mph trap difference!
