ok ive noticed this more an more..i got on it a couple times last night bout 4 2nd, to 3rd gear pulls an 2 of the three times the car broke up @ the top of second..now iam bout to o an oil change this week think is time for New plugs

 

yea defintley, make sure ur gap is .35 with ur setup. You may have fouled them if your running rich all the time.

 

dude; are you seriously still running that 2.6 with NO supporting mods?? WTF...

 

sounds like not enough spark

 

Phshh...who needs suppourting mods...I certainly dont...thats for wimps

 

your temps were too high cause you did back to backs with no cooling mods.

im guessing it didnt studder ont eh first pull it happened on subsequent pulls, because of the temps

 

Reading your sig and info:

Your car's not a lemon the person who modded it was either an idiot or an imbecile (I think the two or the same)

The anwser is go to 2.8 pulley, or 2.9.
New plugs. (check to see if they're fouled and will know if your running real rich. Also get a wideband!
Let me scan it to see where it's at and I can see what the tune is.

 

thought the cobra he was on already....

ew dude 2.6 shouldnt go on even with cooling mods. You will gain more HP sticking with 2.8 and proper tune.

 

Yeah back to back pulls is not good. Just do a pull and let it cool down for like a couple of minutes before you do another one...Let the iat's drop a little bit...That's what I do....

<---- on my 2.5 pulley not one single cooling mod or engine/tranny mount and my car ran strong.....

 

Im sure it runs strong but you would be suprised if u slapped a 2.8 on and compare your dynos.

 

yeah, but what size injectors were you running, and what size is he running??

 

He doesn't have a Cobra H/E
He's using a B&M Oil Cooler as a Heat Exchanger.

Also a 2.5 even a 2.6 puts the Eaton out of it's effencieny range.
All the people here who think going with smaller pulleys to get more boost (PSI) need to understand I can run faster than you on 12lbs of boost than your can do with 20lbs.
Why? Ask Ralliartist...... I don't feel like going into it right now.

Someone said dyno difference between 2.6 and 2.8. Yeah, big difference as in 2.8 will make more power than the 2.6.

 

and one morefor good measure.

 

I'm just proving that my car lasted 40k miles with a 2.5 pulley and i've taken down a c5 vette 75-140 mph with no cooling mods. In m opinion my car is pretty quick. But I now have cooling mods since the turbo obviously haha i'm not going to push it that far

 

you never answered the question though...what size injectors were you running??

 

yup i have a 2.8 and a cobra h/e sitting on my room

blah blah falqin blah back to my question! i need part numbers plz o and it broke up the first an third run..i went to bout 115 in third i really reved it on the third run o an each run had bout 5-10 crusing time in between

 

if it broke up on the first run you have a shitty tune and or fouled plugs

 

yea i know the tune sux cuz it runs rich even @ an idel(sp lol) u can SMELL the the unburnt fuel. i also havent had a chance to get it tuned(kind of in between jobs...)

 

don't beat on the car if you are not on a good tune, thats is how things blow up.

 

yea dude.....

rich ass tunes will destroy your plugs very quickly

 

then I wouldnt be out doing WOT pulls if its not tuned properly.

 

keep in mind your cat can clog later too if you keep running it that rich

 

haha uf u loo
i made a thread last week cause i completely melted the cat lol

sooo plugs...anyone????

 

How much damage can he do running that rich...besides a clogged Cat.
