Just finishing up with a few revisions with Dave. I was getting some overboost every once in awhile and finally decided to go EWG. Daves customer service is second to none. Very responsive. I got tuned a few years ago before the EWG and hes still the same today that he was before. Keep it up Dave!

Does anybody ever loan out a tactrix cable? Looking to borrow one for logging.

 

 

Im just outside of Allentown if your willing to drive 2 hours. I have a vagcom. Your best bet is to just buy one off amazon for $15. It comes in handy.

watching video, I see the following:

1. what's with the rev'ing at start? You're actually rev'ing as the lights change. Put it at 4700 or 5000 or whereever and leave it.

2. As you let off the clutch, bury the throttle

3. upshift to 2nd was about 6k rpm, upshift to 3rd was about 6200, upshift to 4th was about 6k. With the slow shifting you have, you want to spend as much time as you can winding the motor out. Figure out where the cutoff is, and rev to that every time. If you can add a shift light, you won't have to watch for your shift point

4. your upshifts are not very smooth (lots of blur from camera)

5. If you are shifting slow due to stock parts, rev the engine as you pass thru neutral to keep the revs up.

 

1. I thought I saw on here that it helps with launching if you do that cause of building boost while the rpms go up. Ill try holding at a certain rpm next year.

 

2. I thought I did that. Atleast that was my intention.

 

3. I was trying to take it up to redline. How can you tell in the video what I shifted at?

 

4. I dont know what to say. lol

 

5. I guess I need more practice going thru the gears quickers. On the streets I dont normally fly thru the gears very fast like I try to do at the track.

 

Ive only ever been there a few times and with the clutch slipping I think it definitely hurt me. I also installed a new kartboy sts when I did the clutch so next year should definitely be better.

 

Any tips are more than welcome.

So I did 125mph today in my legacy GT

 

ET was 13.2 though - 2.76 60 foot time will do that

 

Gotta love lag and an auto that can't spool

 

Anti lag will fix that next week

Ill put the slip up later. I wish it wouldve been 12.xx but oh well. Maybe next time. Im still on the stock clutch so I think that hurt me a bit. Should put my in the top 20 though!

Thats really weird that you were 20mph slower but that was your fastest time.

82mph? did you mistype that? when I ran around mid 13 I was right about 100 every time did you hit the brakes or something? maybe let off the gas

 

I'll be going in a few weeks with my 18g. hoping for mid 12.

How did you get a 1.5 60'? My best at stage 2 was like 1.8.

Going back in a few weeks with an 18g to hopefully run 12 something without blowing the clutch or something else.

Looking for an inexpensive TMIC... does that even exist???

 

 

If your looking for a cheap stock one I have that. Cant help if your looking for aftermarket.

Anyone here from him? Hope nothing happened to him. Where'd you go cryo

 

Ive been working with him over the past few weeks going back and forth about what to buy and what not. Just put new stage 3 parts on over the weekend and flashed my base map on monday and we did a few revisions already. Hes definitely around and a great guy to deal with.

Is it bad if I cant run the engine to relive the pressure? I started ripping stuff apart to swap the turbo already so I cant pull the fuse and run the gas out.

do it again when it's about 45-55 degrees

 

 

lol I doubt ill run it again till I get a bigger turbo and such.

Went to the track again on friday. My last time my best was a 13.7.

Video wasnt my fastest run.

Is anyone with a OPB lgt interested in some chrome rockers? Mine are chrome and in good shape but I dont like the chrome. Located in eastern PA. If all else fails I guess ill try to paint them. If you need a pic let me know.

 

 

Looking to trade not sell.

here is all the stuff i have for sale http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/fs-n-va-axle-back-strut-bar-sway-bar-grille-203495.html

 

PM sent

Check with Underdog and/or m sprank - both are running specials to the end of this month on Enkei wheels. Underdog has the catalog posted in his thread as does m sprank I believe so see if that's a good deal vs new.

 

AFA the tires - they're throw aways, so you're really only interested in the wheels.

 

Whats wrong with the tires? I wouldnt be doing autox or anything. Just usual driving in the summer. Wouldnt I be able to get a few summers out of them.

 

If he doesnt have the centering ring, do you know about how much they would be?

 

I was thinking of offering him $500 and see what he says.

So someone local to me is selling a set of these http://www.wheelstudio.com/view-wheel/enkei-wheels/enkei-lusso-black-with-polished-lip . Asking 600 obo. I like the looks of them but I searched on here and didnt find a single other person even mention that specific wheel. Is it a bad wheel or what? The rims the guy is selling is 18x7.5 with nexen n3000 tires with about 8/32 left. He said one of them has a small bubble in it. Does that sound like a good deal or not?

Stock parts?

 

 

Yes

 

And BMB, I know you want them. You PMed me before but like you said your to far. Come visit your brother and stop by.

Anyone want a used DP or UP from an 06 manual? Located by Allentown, PA.

so far, run #1 is: 13.652 @100.64

i did a second run and winded up with a 13.9 @99.75

need to let it coold down for a bit. oh, and i had to wear a helmet for my second, so my awareness was a little off

 

nice run, I wonder why my mph was so low. Maybe im a slow shifter....idk

 

What kind of 60ft are you getting?

are you at high elevation? im like 40ft above sea level. higher elevation makes you slower. i'll post it by saturday

 

Its like 500ft where i was. what mods do you have done?

anyone interested in a stock up or dp from an 06 mt? just have to make aure i pass emmisions first.

yea you should be able to trap much higher than 99mph. at least a 102 with the mentioned mods. even more with an infamous tune. i just went stage 2 last week with a dp and an accessport tune. shooting for a 13.5 or better. i'll post it up by saturday

 

i had about 6 runs and i couldnt even hit 99. i doubt id be able to get 102. post up your results when you go.
