ran at the track...ran a 15.21....very dissapointed after intake mani and tune. i am taking off the intake mani and going this weekend

 

Still a very respectable time though. Look at mine. What was your trap?


BTW, did you dyno after the IM and tune?

 

93.26

and no i did not

 

Thats a nice increase in the trap. Throw some slicks on there and you will have a 14.9

 

Thats not bad for an intake manifold man, thats probably like 10hp on top(going from 90-93mph)

 

yeah i had really really bad wheelhop at the line i tried alot of dirrerent methods. I think my next purchase will be the solid front motor mount.....and btw i won the street class and i was the slowest one there...i won 6 rounds

 

93mph in a probably 3200lb car sounds like 180hp+ to me man...not bad.

Youre good tires, a wicked launch and a tailwind away from being the first in the 14's.

 

I don't think the intake manifold was a failure. You gained over 3mph in trap speed. That's what you want. Now you just need to work on your launches. Get some good tires and you'll be 14's no problem. 93mph trap is about 180+whp BTW. You are probably over 200 crank hp.

what was your 1/8th mile et and trap speed?

 

9.82 at 73 best

 

man, I don't see what to complain about. You gained everywhere! especially the top end! Don't take the intake manifold off.

you need tires now to utilize the power better.

 

haha i just figured i would have gained more especially after tuning

 

3mph gain is pretty decent though considering its basically a canned tune. When you get a chance, throw it on a dyno and see how much more power than stock cars you are making.

 

i have to admit it is wicked fast on the highway lol

 

dude, 3mph IS A LOT for a N/A 4 cyl car to gain from just an intake manifold and tuning. I don't see what there is to complain about. In all seriousness, you pickup up about 20-30whp. maybe even a tad more.

 

haha i should just quit and boost the bitch

 

If you are wanting 100+mph traps, then you need F/I. It's not gonna be easy getting there N/A.

and you beat me too it. lol. Boost will be way cheaper than trying to go really fast n/a.

 

Yeah, if you want a trap that high you probably need a Patriot performance head, comp stage 2 cams, and a race gas tune. lol

Boost it after you become the first n/a 2.2 on here to get into the 14's.

 

yea no ****, you are a set of tires away from getting into the 14's N/A!!! DO IT!! then boost it.

 

you my friend just made it a goal lol

 

you hit just a 2.1 60ft. and you'll be 14.8/14.9, just don't miss a shift. Power shift that bitch.

 

the wheelhop is so bad on launch though

 

slicks, lol

 

wouldnt that make it grip more and then make it hop more? i would think that spinning would be better i do have 205's on the car

 

No, it won't hop with slicks. Thats the way to go if you want great traction. You are more likely to hop if you have radials on because of the stiff sidewall.

 

how wide of slicks though?
