i think it might would be a good idea if someone had multiple car to show each car.. i know it would get kinda confusing but if someone would be needed to help out with this thread id be more than glad to.
98 neon- 11.4@127(parting out)
04 srt-4- 13.1@108 on street tires
92 tsi awd- 2.3 built bottom end and 16g (for now)
97 dakota- v8 5-speed 4wd (soon for sale)
heres the results from tonight at carolina dragway
today was not a good day.. thankfully nothing really broke, but i only got one decent pass in out of four..i kept having trouble with the coldside pipe popping off.. i thought id gotten it back on good but i guess not.. i was kinda rushing but oh well. it popped off 3xs.
10.79 @ 127mph with 1.53 60ft without spray on stock motor with a eaton and some bolt-on's and alot of suspension and slicks and skinnes. Now I will take number 1 spot b/c of alot of hard work and time and most of all the driven skills
well to start with the wastegate stopped working tial 38mm the whole head spins and doesnt open under boost like it should
i had a few bolts back on on the exhaust manifold and 2 backed out all had locktite on them and one broke off so in turn when the wastegate wouldnt open the manifold gasket blew out and have a horrible exhaust leak
and my 3rd gear syncro decided it wanted to start to act up grinding going into 3rd and i didnt find that one out til a few days later when i drove my car a half mile to the store and it didnt want to go into 3rd i was pissed so now the car is on stands tore apart and im trying to get parts to get the exhaust leak taken care of and then i will worry about the transmission
im in need of a 38mm or 44mm tial or turbonetics wastegate if anyone has a good one laying around hit me up
so that about sums all my problems up, this is the first time is broke stuff caused by beating the hell out of it at the track but she run asweome at the track!-charles
