Not bad for how hot it was

Ya and I left the Short ram but I'm happy for my first time on a strip.

eclipsercr2006 · September 18th, 2011, 05:56 PM

What kind of tires cause I noticed your 60' is a little high

stangcobra · September 18th, 2011, 05:57 PM

Sorry, these times are just sad, even if it was hot you're not gonna be running 10 second 1/8ths
driver mod will help

trevroar · September 18th, 2011, 06:52 PM

^^^ for your first time there, its ok, but your car is much faster than that. Next time lower your tire pressure if you haven't, and try to do a quick burn out. I was able to run a 10.7 with my GS, you should be running a low 9's 1/8

eclipsercr2006 · September 18th, 2011, 07:03 PM

Well in his defense he has an auto and the way the humidity gets down here in Florida and we dont know of the track conditions

And being a previous mustang owner myself I suggest you keep the bad comments to yourself I would like to see your track runs with the same weather conditions we deal with down here

Steveo · September 18th, 2011, 07:12 PM

Haha ^ love it our cars are just as fast..times should be better but the heat deff is a factor. my first few runs were like that 9.6 9.7 but as soon as I got the hang of it I saw 9.1,9,3

eclipsercr2006 · September 18th, 2011, 07:19 PM

Ya seriously this guy being a previous eclipse owner wants to talk bad but here he is with his super car prob. running mid 13's if he is a good driver.

stangcobra · September 18th, 2011, 08:01 PM

I will talk as much shit as I want, my GS times were maybe 1-1.3 seconds slower in the 1/8 with very similar weather conditions(middle of july, 97 or so degrees, ridiculous humidity) and hes got a full bolt on GT.
This was a GS with intake, header, pulley

bullet06 · September 18th, 2011, 08:59 PM

Tires are nitto nt555 fully inflated. Had the short ram in stead of cold air. Also running realy rich with a 3" exhaust. Plus auto maybe not the best times but for the first time I am happy. You can see a difference in my time so I did better each time. With a full street set up no little burn outs. Let's see your slips for your gs Jake. My car is for track witch means top end and not strip witch is bottom end.

trevroar · September 18th, 2011, 09:21 PM

did you happen to get lost on your way to the track, and went to the drags instead!?

No bro the tracks are 3 hours away we have a strip 30 min away so thought it would be fun. It was I will put on the cai next time. May pull some air out of the tires but I realy want to see how it does on dd set up. Not all out drag I'm not a drag racer but it was fun and ill try for better times.

trevroar · September 18th, 2011, 10:00 PM

Air pressure is key, it will definitely help you out

bullet06 · September 18th, 2011, 10:05 PM

Ya I know I thought about it too but I was more into seeing how it would do the way I drive this time. I don't drive around with low air. But next time I will drop it down for real times.

Suprsaiyjinbroli · September 18th, 2011, 10:14 PM

...Stangcobra is correct btw. He may have come across a little harsh but he is right.

2.5 60 foots on Nitto Triple 5s is a pretty horrid launch.

If you're running that high in the 1/8th then the car should be stock. Reality checks hurt sometimes...but they're needed.

PS...I'm from FL...and the baddest 4Gs to show up at a drag strip have been automatics with Short Rams. So you can throw that out...Now that the reality check is outta the way...

You gotta drop the PSI in those tires man. Have to. Also, try rolling into the throttle instead of hammering it down. Try launching with the traction control on as well. You should be cutting 2.1 with those tires or better if you can drive it from the dig.

Next goal should be to learn to launch her...try for 2.3...consistantly...then a 2.2...keep at it. You'll get there with practice.

bullet06 · September 18th, 2011, 10:44 PM

Ok. I lunched with tc on the first time and that was the 2.4 60 foot. Over the 2.5 with it off. I Wont three times and got a little faster each time. I will bring the tire pie down next time. Was thinking the sr was bad because of the heat? But still happy for the first run the 3" exhaust can't be helping though.

Good. At least you were switching it up. Thats good. Try different things. Those Triple 5s probably like some heat also...dunno...try that too. I know the Triple 5Rs do

Man...I've said this before. You gotta understand the community around you feeding you information. Everyone here gets on a built motors balls, they love body kits...they love boost or the mention of it...they tell you CAI makes more power and a SRI is worse than stock...Just look at how everyone jumped on Stangcobra...the guy was right...but everyone else is getting on him telling him you did ok for your first time. Look man, you didn't do well. But its ok. Because you're going to learn from it and move on. You wanna race her? Then you gotta practice.

Reference other vehicles man. Just to give you an example. The Vararam intake system for LS engines makes LESS POWER on a dyno than a lot of the other intakes but it fucking makes the cars equipped with them faster than anything else...why? Its ram air. Dyno air flow vs real world air flow is different. I've been saying this forever. I think the SRI is better IMO for this car. Somebody wanna argue that? Come on with it...

The SRI, if you have the stock "flow thinger" pumping air in the filter is gonna flow some serious air..."ram air" style over a stupid ass CAI. Plus, the SRI is gonna eat hard up top in the band...which will help you get outta the hole. Again, IMO...your SRI is the way to go.

Next time you hit the track, pull the filter off the intake...you'll pick up a lil' some something.

And yes...I'd assume a 3 inch exhaust would hurt...sounds a little large but I dunno that for sure. But I'd reference other vehicles...like big V8s run 3 inch exhaust...3.8L isn't flowing exhaust like a 5.7L with TRUE long tubes and no cats...

bullet06 · September 18th, 2011, 11:18 PM

Ya the rsx was taking off the filter. I also lunched at 1500 rpm the last run but still had the tc off. I'll try heating the tires up next time as well. It may have not been well but I have to start some were.

ptr149 · September 18th, 2011, 11:22 PM

I have an AEM sri, 3in headerback exhaust, and i'm also auto and I ran a 14.5 in the Texas summer. Just need practice or maybe a better prepped track.

I'll argue somewhat I have the injen where as you know converts to both and I have ran with both I dont really notice any difference either in time slips or a first dyno now on the other hand aftet multiple runs in theory the cai should come in a little handier being ad its not soaking all that engine heat and our peticular application where our "ram air" sits doesnt really work as ram air the air isnt forced directly where the ram air is positioned at least not the injen selection and as far stang cobra being right I dont disagree to an extent but as harsh as he came across and claiming his gs did better thats why originally stated to Bullet that it wasn't bad this new forum wasn't meant for any kind of discouragement regardless of what it was riff raff like that was never and will never be tolerated here not that I have any say reason as to why I went to Bullets defense

The K & N Typhoon SRI works like "ram air". I should have been more specific because thats what I was referring to.

Any intake that can "convert" itself I'd worry about...this isn't transformers.

You should notice something...either on the dyno or on the track. Either one. There should be a difference down low or up top depending on the intake man.

Stangcobra said, "Sorry, these times are just sad, even if it was hot you're not gonna be running 10 second 1/8ths driver mod will help". I don't disagree with that.

Your original defense...doesn't make sense and is unfounded. The fastest 1/4 and 1/8 4Gs are in humid states...and are autos...

Just tell Stangcobra to lighten up...and move on.

eclipsercr2006 · September 19th, 2011, 12:01 AM

Ok I didn't want a pissing match but now it seems to be going there can you get more specific on fastest 1/4 Mile by state's and whom you are speaking of and specify all motor vs forced induction that you might be reffering to!

bullet06 · September 19th, 2011, 12:07 AM

I think ssjb's fastest time was 13.2 on 75 shot. What would a 9.7 add up to in 1/4 mile my car is more top end.

Relax a little. I'm not here to argue man.

I'm trying to help the guy out instead of telling him a 2.5 60 foot is good for your first time out...He ran slower than stock spec for a bone stock car...he has power mods and weight reduction mods...and badass tires. He drove poorly. Period.

Check your leaderboards. Its a FL boy with a crappy automatic.

12.9, 75 shot.

13.7, Motor.

9.7 is in the mid to high 14s...I think...

eclipsercr2006 · September 19th, 2011, 12:23 AM

Thats good for nitrous and I would like to thank him I may look into trading up for the k&n which I didnt recall being available 5.5 yrs ago when I bought mine I may purchase one to replace my injen cai and we will have more fast times to post in 2 weeks my fastest was 14.0 at 104mph on garbage tires untuned all motor so theres mine until further notice and no sir did I want an arguement just a little friendship amongst the members on these boards your a mod so you've seen plenty go by untouched I just dont like seeing fellow eclipse members get bad mouthed however the severity

I'll sell you mine...and it comes tapped for nitrous already too.

Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

I would be intetested in your nitrous but I am one of the beta testers left in the dark for the reflash and aparently my timing is advanced 3 degrees but I have no way of knowing for sure as of right now and I invite to join us at bradenton in 2 weeks if you'd like

I lived in SoFla for a while, I understand how hot it gets there, it felt like that here
didnt mean to come across as such a douche, but there was something wrong with those launches and 60' times.
People over on the SVT forums say for every .1 you take off your 60' thats .2 off your 1/4, the 60' time is incredibly important.
Yes bullet drove poorly, I did too my first time at the strip, a couple tips though.
Heat your tires, even if they are street tires youve got a lot of shit on them from driving to the strip, a little( and I mean little) burnout can go a long way towards improving grip.
Second, brake launch, starting at 0rpm and trying to get up to mivec hurts.
My launches were 2500rpm brake launches, and if it helped in a GS itll help in a GT.
I'll get my timeslips if you still care, theyre somewhere around my house.
And yeah I agree with supersaijin(sp?) youll get better with more runs, but its just about finding what works for you.

bullet06 · September 19th, 2011, 08:52 AM

It's all good bro that is why the thread was posted so I can learn. I'm more in to the turns but the tracks are far so I will be trying out the track. I know the tire pressure thing but though you didn't burn out street tires but now I know.

stangcobra · September 19th, 2011, 08:53 AM

double post is double

stangcobra · September 19th, 2011, 08:53 AM

well you dont do giant burnouts on streets, but you wanna do a little one to get some of the shit off of your tires, and to heat them a bit

GT isn't what it used to be. She is my DD. She is paid for so no point in getting rid of it I guess.

I'm basically down to bolt ons now...and I'm trying to sell that. Or trade it.

Corvette should be in the 11s this year though

So you can throw that out...Now that the reality check is outta the way... You gotta drop the PSI in those tires man. Have to. Also, try rolling into the throttle instead of hammering it down. Try launching with the traction control on as well. You should be cutting 2.1 with those tires or better if you can drive it from the dig. Next goal should be to learn to launch her...try for 2.3...consistantly...then a 2.2...keep at it. You'll get there with practice. __________________ Last edited by Suprsaiyjinbroli; September 18th, 2011 at 10:17 PM.

Over the 2.5 with it off. I Wont three times and got a little faster each time. I will bring the tire pie down next time. Was thinking the sr was bad because of the heat? But still happy for the first run the 3" exhaust can't be helping though. __________________ BULLET's Modification Link!!! [^](",")[^]

I also lunched at 1500 rpm the last run but still had the tc off. I'll try heating the tires up next time as well. It may have not been well but I have to start some were. __________________ BULLET's Modification Link!!! [^](",")[^]

I'm more in to the turns but the tracks are far so I will be trying out the track. I know the tire pressure thing but though you didn't burn out street tires but now I know. __________________ BULLET's Modification Link!!! [^](",")[^]
