suds2250 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Just ran my car for the first time today. I still have to work on launch and shifting also. My car is a TDC stage 2 with a perrin TMIC and tubroback exhaust. I had half a tank, the sparetire and my kids carseat! 88 degrees, high humidity, crosswind. Consistantly ran low 14's to high 13's. My best was: RT .562 60' 1.867 330 5.602 1/8 8.678 mph 81.93 1000' 11.366 1/4 13.599 Mph 101.30 There were a couple of z06 corvettes running too. Consistantly in the mid to low 11's . :eek: 335HP/360Tq VF-22/1820 clone with Meth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suds2250 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Mattg, its funny, the grip available in the box is crazy. I started dropping the clutch at aroud 3300rpm. That is not the way to get a good time! My better times were with a 5000-5500 rpm drop. Those would give a bit of wheelspin! After about thirty runs, my clutch was getting notchy on the 2-3 shift. 335HP/360Tq VF-22/1820 clone with Meth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suds2250 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 you made 30 passes at one time??? It's highly addicting! We had the track all afternoon. We would do 4-5 passes, then cool off for 15 minutes. 335HP/360Tq VF-22/1820 clone with Meth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKLGT Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 even i quit after a while. most i did was 12 in one session! and that was because it was opening day at the track and i was running low 14's, high 13's on my new set up!

If all else fails just hold down the gas when shifting gear. No lift a shift ftw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all else fails just hold down the gas when shifting gear. No lift a shift ftw I needed to shift earlier to keep it in the torque. Starting out I was shifting at redline, and launching at 3500rpms. My times improved when I launched at 5000rpms and shifted earlier. Unfortunately, I started missing gears more! 335HP/360Tq VF-22/1820 clone with Meth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKLGT Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 sorry folks! didn't make it the track on Sunday (last day for drag strip) so it'll have to wait til next May before I get the next chance to 12.7's and lower.

what Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Has anyone ran the 1/4 mile with the vf40-18g? All I have heard is how much better this turbo is then stock. It may be better in certain areas, but I want to know if its any faster on the track. I think Subiesport had either PDX or TDC put one in their car and they ran a 13.45. Which doesnt tell me much. I dont know what the temp was, 1/8, or 60ft time. Has anyone else ran one on the track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rao Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Did you read it? He states to email or PM him the information What's wrong with that? It is kind of funny that by insisting on full disclosure the number of people who have asked to be on the list is much smaller than the people who say "my car runs low 12's" Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
