I still feel like I should be getting better 60ft times than I am even leaving at idle but the best I can do is 2.125 or so. I wonder if it's possible I'm spinning even though it doesn't feel like I am or sound like I am. Maybe I should video my rear tire next time at the track.

Tell me about it. I should be cutting 1.5x 60' but I'm getting 1.8x. It looks like they figured out how to get around the issue with the nitrous builds, but us turbo guys just keep waiting for a solution. You should be around 1.8x, so that means you are leaving around 0.6 seconds on the table right there.

Yeah I would love a 1.8x! Mid 11's would be very nice.. it's going to be a nice chunk of change to leave the line hard. Convertor, SS rear end, tune, and drag radials or slicks. $$$

Did you hear about the new differential bushings from H-E? Might help with your 60.

JantzenOKC · 04-22-2015, 03:59 PM

Double post.

Yeah I saw those, I'm not messing with diff bushings until I get a rear cradle/diff out of an SS. Then I will do solid subframe bushings and some diff bushings and whatever else I need.

Well my Mightymouse Solutions Catch can came in today. I have to say the quality is impressive. Everything looks good and this thing is HEAVY, doesn't feel like an empty can like my RX one does. They just came out with this new tall breather, it's 2" tall where their original is 1" tall. We're not 100% sure it will clear the hood but I'm going to try it and if it doesn't they said they would send me the other one.

I also bought the 5th Gen Camaro fan shroud mounting bracket and an oil cap adapter and 90 degree -AN fitting to run a fresh air hose to the filter on my turbo.

To relieve the crankcase pressure when under boost. It's a one way breather so only let's pressure out, no unmetered air in.

Gotcha, I figured it was a boost related thing. Just wasn't sure.
