First Run

[dzx]

I finally managed to get my fuel to a setting where it would let me run 15 lbs. The 550cc injectors really make the car run rich. So tonight i got bored with sitting at home and took the car out to drive. I ran into an R32 at a stoplight on arapahoe which is a 6 lane road. He mentioned that he hadn't been ready at the last light so I said its ok, I got a real crappy tune, which i do. So the light turned green and I didn't get a launch so he was at my driver side door and creeping up. Then i hit about 4500 rpm and the power came on and i pulled half a car length between 4500 and 6500. Then shifted to second and the car bounced around a bit then started pulling again and i pulled another half a car before 60mph.

The car is really jerky after a shift but it pulls hard after it settles down. The guy with the R32 was pretty cool and we attempted to talk between cars as we were driving for a moment before we went our ways.

Kinda makes up for the whipping i've been getting from ford explorer's and other people taking advantage of my no boost situation i was going through before.

Skyline or Golf?

[dzx]

Golf. One of the cars at Superrupair dynoed 399.9 uncorrected hp today on 91 octane. I raced him, since I know him. It was ugly.

[THAWA]

For you or for him?

My jerkiness after shifts was a poorly adjusted BOV. Fixed now and all gravy.

You are still using the stock MAF, just a different intake manifold, fatter injectors, and cams, right? But your using a T3/T4 or stock VF11? And an SAFC to adjust shit?

[dzx]

Yeh. Stock MAF, different manifold with 550 injectors cams and an apex'i safc with the t3/t4. The wastegate leaks so it lags horribly.

I think what is causing the jerkiness between shifts is the MAF is just kinda hanging in my fender. I'll probably secure it soon so it stops bouncing around between shifts.

Oh, the race against the sti with 399.9 whp was ugly for me especially since my engine was bogging down from too much fuel but it was good for a laugh.
