Guest Slash Guests Posted 21/06/10 07:26 AM Share Posted 21/06/10 07:26 AM What was the initial goal? To build a 10sec car with the tightest budget known to man & to piss as many people off along the way as possible?Hope it all comes together for you, but I wouldn't be too cocky about the BTR holding together just yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I got the 3200-3500 histall....who knows.Who cares, track mph will let me know roughly. Even if I hit 12s and do 125mph ill be happy.You cant put a number on how much RWKW a convertor chews.. Its a fluid coupling. EVERY convertor is unique, even if the same convertor shop makes 2x 2800, they will both show different results.. the smallest amount of clearance in re-assembly causes a world of difference in how a convertor stalls, drives, torque multiplication...Your convertor is the washiest convertor I've ever driven. Absolutely sh*t drive in it.My Initial convertor, which was developed for APS back in the days when there was no "EDIT" but just Unichip, They had to make sure the convertor was still as tight as factory to avoid hitting the limp mode. In Fact, the convertor had MORE drive than the factory one did, with higher stall... But of course, it was built by the Best... Grant!On the dyno with that convertor, my car showed 398rwkw, Show me any car with a 4 speed auto, and the factory turbo make power like that. When Grant rebuilt my convertor with more stall, that instantly dropped to 375rwkw.MPH will be easy.. But you will have better luck sucking a bloke off than getting a ET in the 10's. I read 10.79 and 131mph on the ET street forum? LOL.. Good luck..What was the initial goal? To build a 10sec car with the tightest budget known to man & to piss as many people off along the way as possible?LOL!!! Funniest thing I've read in this thread..Hope it all comes together for you, but I wouldn't be too cocky about the BTR holding together just yet Yeh.. No Disrespect to Dion, but a couple of days of having at tune, and its the car and auto feel the strongest they have ever felt. But really what other tune have you got to compare with? The Modified Rev limited AVO tune I left in your car? lolmy goal is to hit 10.89 to piss off more people :D LOL... Good luck..Try that in full street trim, full exhaust, with only semi slicks, then you might get some credit. But even so, that's so 2 years ago..

Guest Slash Guests Posted 21/06/10 08:05 AM Share Posted 21/06/10 08:05 AM my goal is to hit 10.89 to piss off more people :D lol @ tightest, ive dropped like 20k already into the ba but sure!Let me guess, the 10.89 is to piss of Danny as he ran 10.90?You're a douchebag! His car was an unopened BA with stock motor, not an abortion that has bits of this & bits of that. Never met him myself, but I have the impression that Danny's a stand-up guy that got fed up dealing with cheapskates as his thread a few weeks ago suggested. You come on here bagging him & predicting you'll run better times is laughable.Does the $20k include tyres, oil changes & car cleaning products? I bet you have all those receipts tucked away in your glovebox or something Seriously, you're better off just keeping quiet on here until you go out & run some decent numbers. I don't think many people on here are reading your thread for anything but entertainment value as your last few have been crackers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
