Hey guys

went to willowbank test and tune last nite

after doin a 16.1 last time completely stock AUTO

i have improved abit with the help of a FMIC

avcr controller set on 10psi

CES racing split dump .

My time i did last nite was 15.2 with a .640 reaction time .

im off saving for my next lot of things to do to make it quicker

series 1 1993

had 122.3rwkw stock

and after those little mods it did 166.9rwkw

so slowly moving up .

Would this time that i did be accurate to the dyno rating 166.9?

considerin the reaction time and all of that?

my 60 ft time was 2.356

and did 91mph.

so yeah dont know whats goin on there then.

i'll get the car looked at and do what needs to be done

next thing is injectors, fuel rail, fuel pump, cams,

trans cooler, stg 2 quick shift, highflowcat, afm then turbo.

so should be gettin a bit betta from then

well done but im sure you would like to do better. Do you only have a dump pipe with the rest of the exhaust stock?? If this is the case then that will be a big restriction.

Also did you launch the car just by planting down the foot in 'D' or did you stall it up as far as it can go then taking off right when boost comes on??

Good stuff Mate , keep pushing it :)

My auto ( when it was stock turbo & ecu ) made a best of 13.4 @ 106mph (280 rwhp)

I didn't lunch an auto until mid 300s rwhp , & even then it was only heat that killed it!

I'm trying "Redline racing ATF" now ( with a bigger cooler!) , I'll keep you informed.....

GO THE AUTO!

when i went down the quarter

i stalled it up to about 2500 and .4 or .5 boost in 1st gear

then changed to 2nd and drive

Should i try goin down in just drive ?

I have CES racing split dump 3inch

Catback 3 1/4 hyper Medallion exahust

AVCR controller set on 10psi

600X300X75 hybrid intercooler

K&n panel filter

APC did a compression test and found the 6 cylinder was 130 and the rest were 150

I havent been in another auto yet, but it feels like my gearchanges between

2 and 3rd are pretty slow or is it just normal.

pulled a alright skid though hahaha.

What other things should i be lookin at to get myself in the 13's bracket?

I aslo have an auto and am about to install a Greddy Profec B-spec II. I want to set the high setting ti 11psi. Will it be OK to have it on high for the entire race. Should I launch on low then go to high. Mines all whell drive so I dont need to worry about traction. Ill have a bigger transmission cooler in by the next meet.

My time i did last nite was 15.2 with a .640 reaction time.
Your R/Times don't count. The timer starts when you leave the staging line and cross the finishing line (otherwise most rotary cars would be doing 2min 1/4's :))
my 60 ft time was 2.356 and did 91mph.
. With some more experience you will easily drop this to around a 2.1sec 60ft which should put you in the mid to high 14's with no mods at all.

Well done on the time. As everyone will continue to tell u....practice on your 60ft times.

Did you have your Power button on & O/D 'off'? Coz I believe that helps with the launches & gear changes.

Gear changes normally are pretty slow in the auto (approx 1 sec....zzzz). If you’re interested, currently theres a group buy for an upgraded valve body (shift kits) from M/V Automatics - highly recommended & will give the manuals a run for their money.

As HR31 mentioned, do the car a favour & get yourself a high flow cat immediately!!! & if after that, given your mods, your tuner cant tune you over 170rwkw, I'd seriously look for a new one.

For a helpful comparison guide search on the drift & drag forums (the ones by 'benm' are insightful). All the best mate :)

burkey22:

I believe with a fairly dead stock Stagea you can safetly tune upwards of 10-11psi - (dont know your mods though). If traction on your launches isnt an issue just stick it on hi.

12mths, 30 runs, ~$3,700+ spent and only a 0.5sec improvement.... Yup you'll learn lots from me :)
  • 6 months later...

i did 15.1 at wsid. auto r32 gtst 3" exhaust,pod filter and 11psi.

O/D was OFF and power was on,even had my mirrors folded in.

can anyone help with launches in fairly stock auto's? at what rpm should i change to 2nd? it feels like it should change earlier,but it likes to redline.

Does manualy shifting the gears make it change quicker? or is it an illusion?

Edited by RSTME

Go the auto

stalling up in N and smaking it in to drive and i through you would leave your gear box at the start

Greddy e manage with ignision harnes + wider tyers

out of interest i have a 250 rwhp auto

how would that go i wonder

james

Sad to say it but thats still slower than a stock off the showroom floor 265 powered auto 1973 valiant sedan.

Good to see you getting some improvement though..keep it up

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
