Just home :)

Buzzing... absolutely buzzing!

I made an error too... there was a lot of jumping around done at Calder and in the jumping around I misread the timeslip...

The car actually ran 11.116 @ 124.69MPH (thanks Bluepower!)

1.71 60ft (thanks Jet!)

100.67MPH mid track.

Sorry about the quality... off an iPhone from back in the stands.

Thanks Freaky!

.12 of a second from a 10 :)

A breakdown of the run...

Good burnout, not too much. Footbrake, handbrake and right foot to the floor. Didn't move an inch. I would estimate about 2400rpm on board and away we went.

No wheelspin, just dropped the backend and stuck on hard and away we went. I could feel it was fast. Smashed it through the 1/2 change and then also the 2/3 change. So strong on the change. Literally felt like it was leaping forward with each gear change. Crazy biggrin.gif

Then... I'm screaming at the car through my helmet not to hit the limiter on the 3/4...

Hit the limiter again going to 4th gear... boost cut. Maybe another 10th or 2 lost on the boost cut/limiter hitting. The car feels like it loses all momentum when this happens! Oh what could've been!

All good Jet. Thanks for the rev up mate!

The time vs the MPH thing is something that interests me. For only 124 MPH it is a very fast time. Without the boost cut/limit hit on the 3/4 it could've been an 11.0x or better. Which going by common belief (and I tend to agree with them mind you) that 124 MPH isn't enough for that time.

As can be seen by the one and only dyno printout I have for the car it is a pretty soft tune. Getting 100 MPH in 200 metres is fairly motoring along but to then 'only' pick up another 24.xx MPH says that something is lacking up top. On this point I agree whole completely with GTX that I reckon the stepped PWR cooler on the car is doing 2 parts of 5/8ths of sweet FA once I'm moving at any kind of speed.

In saying that though, the GTX turbo is dragging it up the track by the scruff of the neck lol

Combine that with the engine being unopened. Never has the rocker cover been off. It is still running 97,000 km old factory 2008 valve springs. I have a feeling they are on their last legs though as after each run last night the car was surging coming back on the return road. More mods to come :) haha

Yeh as I said in vik chat it usually took a stalled ba (4speed) a perfict run to nett 11.0-10.99's at 124/5 mph so u really have pushed everything it had so to speak power wise

But the 60 in theory has some trim left in

It and that can bring u into 10.99 area ( still lol jack )

Yeh up top its a bit tapered off but its only a tune away and concidering your using 98 very good results also definately valve springs put a awsome kick in its step so that coupled with a bigger cooler ud be well into the 10 bracket

It would be bloody impressive to see a pwr do a 10 though very impressive

That 60 he ran last night should have netted the 10 but the run had some other areas lacking so it just missed out obviously.

I think you should ditch the PWR jack as it's holding you back a little and working the turbo harder than say a PW3 would.Basically the better cooler will make more power at the same boost or same power at less boost.

Give me a GGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Give me a TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Give me a XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

congrats mate!!! Mine was exactly the same felt like it was lacking up top, you wouldnt know the valve springs have gone soft unless you go to the drag strip, how often do you go from a standing start to winding it out to 200km on the street? (the correct response is never lol). Im still running stock 09 springs, booked in in a few weeks to have them changed. My mph I could only manage a 125 so next outing I will be hoping for 130ish. But very well done my times/60ft didnt even come close to yours I think I need more practice :scratchhead:
