my 60 foot was 1.73 on the 11.11 run benm. I did a bigger burnout that time so i think tyres will help heaps.

I also noticed that the car drops out of boost on every gear change it takes a little time for power to come back up again. So i am going to get this big greddy BOV that i have put on this week if t04 dave can help out and try again.

i have also ran 131 mph before.. so yeah lets see what happens next time. I think the launch control is setup right now.

If you have a spare DI that should fix your issue with dropping boost on shifts, mine holds full boost through shifts with it on. If you are referring to the plug on the switch for the clutch i just cut the wires and soldered new ones to the ecu.

Where's your pressure source for your wastegate?

If you take the pressure source from the inlet plenum, it helps smash the waste gate closed when shifting which helps bring boost on quicker... Especially if you run no BOV it will make a HUGE difference...

you finally cought up to my 2.5l's time congrats e85 is nice, get a real turbo man ditch the 35r to small for a 3.0l, wish i had a decent track to use here in peru but oh well, lets see what my rb26 setup does down here get on msn some times fool

Congrats! Damm fine time you did!

If your running a HKS SSQV it could well be the reason for dropping out of boost between gears, I have removed a few of them now and replaced with the Greddy RS or the Tial 50mm (bit overkill for most) and presto, problem solved.

Im also doing 131mph, but with 2.1 60fts :-( hell I wish he had a drag strip around here.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
