Actually mr cocky, Idid not have all that stuff at the track, I was on a 2.9 and 42s, plus the car was not tuned for methanol as the cable was stolen so I could not change anything, So I was pig rich and no timing. Just an FYI chad, in Swift I trapped 104.8mph on a hot day without meth. So yes my tune was def. off at SIR. I proved this by dynoing the car that weekend and it showed I lost over 20whp peak, and about an average of 17whp through the curve, and lost 18lb ft of torque through the entire curve, with power falling off hard at 4800rpm. (In short I lost alot of power.)
But if you want to go again, lets do it now for some fun, Me on 2.9 w/ 60s and you with yours.

 

That clears up the misconception that untuned water/meth is a power adder.

 

Mr. Cocky!!?? Sounds like yur kinda sore about the whole thing. I'm just stirrin the pot i know yur car was runnin like ****... But i still won

 

hey fight nice!!!

 

Ha ha, I know your stirring it up, and I felt your stirring it up by being cocky, because you did win, except the last one. You ran a faster time but I killed you off the line giving me the win. nanner nanner nanner.

Yes, it does clear it up on meth w/ no tuning, the only thing I havent tried w/ the meth kit on the dyno is seeing what happens if you just run water. I think you would still lose power.

 

oh so your one of those " i beat you throught the intersection" guys? i kid i kid

 

Still gotta give props though cause I never was able to run those times on stage 2 the one time I was out at the track with it.


I was pretty surprised at how hard it was to get the meth setup so that it actually helped make more power instead of less. Would never have imagined how much of a difference there would be without multiple dyno pulls.

 

holy everyone is angry ahh!!! run for the hills

Just did a quick buff on mine with a dremel and a polishing wheel

 

Looking good.
The 'semi-polish' is the best part... quick results!

It's getting all the little pockets out for the 'high polish' that is the real bitch. Hours and hours of sanding in those little pockets.

 

how much does it cost to get that done

 

Semi-polishing, or high polishing?

Semi-polishing can be done yourself with a few rotary tools and bits.

High-polishing, though, can either be done by many hours of work, or shipping it to a polisher for $300-$500 + shipping two ways.

 

semi polishing

 

I wouldn't bother paying someone to do a semi-polish job. You can go down to Princess Auto and buy a dremel, as well as an assortment of wheels and buffs for less than someone will charge. And it only takes a few hours to do the job.

 

So are you volunteering your efforts for my cash?

 

I've done a few polish jobs and I wouldn't touch that blower for under $500. There are so many little corners to get it takes a lot of work. After doing my valve cover I don't think I will polish any other parts. It looks like **** after 2 days cause it gets dirty so fast.

 

Ahhhh.... Jen would kill me.

 

if you listen hard enough, you can hear the cracking of a whip off in the distance...

 

You laugh... but it's true.
At least she has given me 100% freedom over the garage!

 

WE ARE GO GREAT!!!!

BTW... in case anyone missed the Alberta fail thread of the month...

 

Stupid sask party. That must be the first good thing ever they did for this province. And it still doesn't affect me.

And at the AB fail of the month. What nimrod posted that?

 

Sure it affects you. No tax on another $4000.... only another $440... but none the less, more in our pocket.

 

Oh ok, i got it now. I'm an idiot.
