Osiris does allow switchable tunes using the cruise control button so that is a good possibility. I think that may be the VDC light though.

Ok I just took this video of my car. A stock 07 350Z VQHR. As you can see the car absolutely will not rev above 7500. I can keep my foot planted on the floor all I'd like

VDC light? It kinda looks like the check engine light. The other light is lower tire pressure

OzzyruleZ

Well let me check. I uploaded it with my phone

OzzyruleZ

Ok it's public now. Sorry about that fellers.

MillerCycle

I had the VDC off, that what the light was for. The video from last December was in DS automatically shifting at 7500, if I manually shift it will go 7800-7900 rpm.



hmmm interesting

OzzyruleZ

Well as you can see a stock HR refuses to go above 7500.

MillerCycle

Are you auto or manual?

OzzyruleZ

Manual

Is there another way to check for a tune? If the car has one, Miller is totally unaware of it. If he finds one, he'll honestly admit it I'm sure. As I said before, his dad bought it used and then sold it to Miller so it's possible something was done to it.

Ive started to somewhat believe Millars claims, mostly because my GMS1 cobalt is way faster than it should be as well. Perhaps there is a bit of a stars aligning type of thing going on

Also a lot of things to consider

Full weight car VS a car with the trunk stripped and no spare
Full or near full tank of gas VS a car that puts in 1L per run or w/e
A fat 350lb person driving vs 150lb person
A good tank of 94 vs a poopy tank of 91
Some cars will have more intelligent computers to adjusts itself to the weather/ the way it uses the traction of the track(auto or manual)

I trapped consistent 108s with 60fts of 2.7 lol.. just GMS1

OzzyruleZ

Your traps were so high because of your consistent crappy 60'. Crappy 60' inflate trap speeds a good deal

cranemaster

How does that work?? You would think the quicker the 60ft, 1/8... etc.. the faster the trap... seems logical... you cleared the distance sooner, you would likely be traveling faster :S

Your saying a 2.1 60ft, id trap lower?? I doubt it lol

Quicker you get to the finish line the less time you have to get your speed up im guessing....I had a friend that had a horrible 60' and ended up trapping 118 on a stock tune lnf with a few mods which don't do anything without a tune.

for a given car, the lower your 60 ft, the higher your trap. I believe it's because if your 60 ft is high, you probably wasted too much time spinning but you'll be going faster by the time you're done spinning.

OzzyruleZ

It comes down to how the timing system works at the track. Ask anyone with any drag experience. Spinning tires through the 60' will get you a worse ET but higher trap speeds.

Area47

lets google that!

cranemaster

I wasn't spinning, it was from wheel hop and horrid 1-2 shifts lol

Cobalt_Daddy

lol people never seem to understand ET vs trap speed.

the faster you get to the finish line, the less time your car has to go faster.

hence why an AWD car will have an awesome ET but a low trap speed.

getting off the line quicker and saving time makes up for it's slower top end.

hence why an sti or evo will slaughter a tc in the 1/4 but lose from a roll.

Praise the lord someone understands this. My car would trap 110-111 when I had 2.4 60fts.

OzzyruleZ

lol its hard not to understand after a few hundred passes or so.

MillerCycle

I have trapped the same mph regardless of my 60 foot. That's with g35 and accord.

Accord I have ran anywhere from 14.0 @ 101 mph to 14.9 @ 100 mph, trap speed has NEVER gone up with worse 60 foot. The only time trap has gone up(ironically with faster 60 foot) is when the DA has gone down, or if I hold out a gear a tad longer.

Heard about this theory, but evidently has never applied to ANY of my cars.

MillerCycle

So I raced a full bolt on Cobra on drag radials(LCA's, headers, x pipe, intake, etc.; BUT no tune and STOCK gears).


Also raced a 2003 Mach 1 with exhaust and 4.10's, it was bumper to bumper to 120 mph.

Area47

you mean to tell me. my stock ass camry will potentially hose your modded super duper race car accord?

lol
