Here's a compilation of track clips from back in June. These are my first two times at the track.

Had the 2.6" on back then, and nothing to combat that nasty wheelhop. I've since bought CABs, and poly trans mounts. Now I just have to install them.

Nothing special, but enjoy!

nice

 

you run very consistent, props on that. buddy needs to practice though!

 

Thanks!

I think my buddy Brian messes up the 1-2 shift a lot.

Although, if you look at my 13.68 run, he pulls one of his best of 14.7. That would put him at #6 on the forums bone stock SS/SC quarter mile list. I think he may have gotten a 14.5X at some point as well. I should tell him to get on the forum more.

 

I have some more from another night. Some good ones of me wiping up a WS6, and a real close one with an 05 Mustang GT.

I'll also make up some clips from an old dyno, so you guys can hear what the Thermal R&D sounds like. I know everyone who was interested in buying it, wanted sound clips.

 

damn you I was expecting a turbo 2.2 or 2.4! change your name!

nice runs btw

 

Hahahaha, I knew people some people would think that. I have this username because my 04 cav 2.2eco was a turbo.

I just kept the name when signing up for this forum. For people who don't know me, I'm sure the name turboeco has made no sense.

Thanks for the comp.

 

dont worry eco, your a cool guy here. we alknow you.

 

yeah i believe i would be at the top of the stock category, except my only runs are 1000', in which i ran 11.85! which is about a 14.1-14.2 quarter with my trap speed but i cant remember what the trap was. oh yeah most people call it not stock becuase i have a different muffler, that is actually hurting my car

speaking of which, what 1000 foot are you running, and what did your buddy run it in

 

My slips have 990' times.

Either way my 13.6 run was a 11.5, so you are def. mid to low 13's.

 

Sweeeeeet video. I love to see a nice quick SS/SC.

 

what was your trap in the 990'?

 

MPH1 was 81.26

 

nj but i think i can do that in my 2.2 lol jk but seriously...the downhill on the track has to help out....man that grades down alot...i thought it was supposed to be level lol fun track....better times from downhill lol...might just be the camera angle...but i see that big ass uphill shutdown area and that track just looks like it would be good for sleding

 

nice video!!!

 

do what in your 2.2

 

You said you have the stock cat? Damn there was quite a bit of black smoke, I can't imagine what mine will look like since I don't have a cat!

 

i checked it out and it does look like its going downhill a bit. idk but what do you think.

 

nice runs bro! i would love to throw a 2.6 on my car but then ide have to get some 60 pound injectors i think i can hit low 13's or mabe even a 12.9 on 42 pounds but i wil have to upgrade alot of stuff lol

 

Hahahaha, I doubt the track runs downhill.

Next time I go to the track I'm heading south, to Maple Grove or Cecil County. This strip is in Numidia PA, up north in the mountains. A lot of guys I talk to say they run a consistent .3 tenths quicker, at Maple Grove/Cecil.

I just ordered the HAHN header, downpipe, exhaust. So I'll be sure to get some new videos.

 

Freaking awesome runs man! Car is looking awesome as well

 

Thanks Merc!

Maybe me, you and cvenom/xenozx can meet up at Cecil some day. We'll get some clips of us all running.

 

Nice runs and a great vid! Props to the camera man for a steady hand and good job on focusing down the track to catch the times. I hate watching vids from 1/4 mile runs where they always cut out the times or it's blurry.

A couple questions if ya don't mind: Do you have any mods like engine or tranny mounts? Looks like you take off pretty good. What rpm's do you usually launch at, and what are your average 60'? Sorry for the questions, and grats on the runs! Oh and what did the KB Cobra run against you in the first vid?

 

Thanks, credit goes to my good friend Robert. He goes with me to the track, and gets every run on tape. Just in case I get that one great run, I'll have it on film.

No mounts of any kind, stock pirellis. I was getting tons of wheelhop. My rearview mirror would get shook vertical, my sunroof cover would open, and the dash was a bangin!

Best 60' I could manage was a 2.2. I recently bought CABs and poly trans mounts, to take care of that wheelhop. That combined with my new Toyo tires, 2.5" pulley, Hahn header/dp/catback, I'm hoping to improve my times.

Mustang ended up running 13.57, got me on topend. Think it was a GT with Kenne-Bell S/C, I have a video of it with its hood up while we were in the staging lanes.

Thanks again for the compliments!

 

Cool vids , the car sounds really good .
