I'm doing the 3.91's to get the 1LE differential brand new, feels like my axles are going to break because of the awesome power my car has. If 3.91's are too much I will change them to 5.10's and do wheelies everywhere like a boss.

This is why I follow what you post.

Need YouTube vids of these wheelies!

Wheelies like a boss.....gotta love that!

MagnumForceGB · 07-11-2014, 11:47 PM

Only managed a 13.6 tonight, DA was 3000. My IAT's were 120 starting out and never went below 100, even with meth spraying. No detonation, but the AFR below 5000 is destroying my runs. Runs too rich, then leans out and on the GoPro camera's you can see my car finally putting distance on my wife's Mustang.

I will post video's and time slips tomorrow, but next time I'm going to try a different tune, this tune is not working because it isn't constant.

Other news though, my wife ran into the 13's with her new tires. DA corrected she ran a 13.195 @ 107.132 with just bolt-ons.

Over 9000# of boost can do that...

Only 5# at that RPM, only managed 10# due to the intercooler heatsoaking badly. My IAT's were 121 then dropped down to 86 by 3rd gear. The car pulls hard and produces the boost when the intercooler is cold, track is a different story. I will research more and see what I find out. A V8 Camaro was running 14.1 @ 103, V6 was running 15.3 @ 93 mph last night. Think I even saw a 5.0 running 13.9's.

Might be time for a different front end? SS or Z? Might help to run the AC when you're idling - that forces both fans to run. Just thoughts.

Front end would help, I can't run the AC at the track due to water condensation.

I've been thinking about doing the ACS T2 splitter with the Cool Rad option, it opens holes in the bottom of the bumper to allow more air in.

One of the runs from last night:

MagnumForceGB · 07-15-2014, 12:49 PM

I have a digital gauge now and a boost sensor. It holds the max value which today was 12 psi.

DSX_Camaro · 07-15-2014, 01:03 PM

Just watching the video I can tell that yes, you probably would gain some with 3.91 gears.

Splitter would help definitely but you still aren't really changing the air into the grille. Though you'd have to change off of the V6 front end and Idk if you'd want to do that. I personally do, hence the Z or SS suggestion. Any other thoughts?

(Can you perhaps tune both fans to come on sooner or via switch perhaps?)

Jason@JacFab · 07-15-2014, 01:14 PM

Have you thought about one of those Co2 sprayers for the intercooler?

Seems pretty expensive for what it is, I bet you could make your own for a couple hundred bucks or less.
