Running a cut of race gas with 91 would get damn expensive tho.

But if he's just doing it when he's going out to play it's better than driving all that way

i did some reading on that stuff nitro is an explosive and has to be mixed with meth and has a crazy rich a/f ratio you'd be lucky to get 100kms per tank

But what about those moments driving home from work, someone pulls up to race and you lose by a couple lengths. Sad panda lol.

My play days consist of an empty tank and pure race gas. Taylor and I just may go play when he comes up here next month haha.

Proper boost ramp is what's mostly going to save your tranny. You aren't going to make enough power on 94 or even spraying meth to chew the tranny out unless you're being dumb.

Ask Tom how much we talk about other fuels. Yes I can get 94 and have meth but is it E85??? NO!

I'm sorry Tom but boost ramps suck buy a bigger turbo get the same spool as the "boost ramp" with more hp

Well oil pump is oil. The pick up tube can be rotated by hand so that's not good. Going to see if Kevin can weld the pickup in place. If not I got a new pump and pickup tube ready to get thrown in

This is interesting. Dustin's car on the same boost level, 23psi, on 91 vs. 94 fuel, no meth. There may have been a little bit left in the 91 tune, but we are also still working on the 94 tune a bit as well. It's amazing what just the quality of fuel can do.

Lol I have lots of free time during the day at work this time of year! It sucks haha.

If you want another random VD picture, here is a 30-31 psi pull from the other night. My lights hit a reflector in the middle of nowhere at 1 am and I slammed on the brakes, so the pull is only to 6,700 rpms Started running out of injector up top anyways when I did a hit earlier, so I have to raise the base pressure.

i would call that some hardcore evidence, those who say 91 is better then 94 should reconsider. that's ok with me, they can continue to use 91, I will continue to use 94 nice work taylor. I think you got that dyno program down.


so kevin that lucky dog is at the football game tonight.


I just had the pleasure of sitting in a mineral salt water hot tub and pool this aft. damn I feel so much better.
