solstice race... nao!!!

 

Kay, here's one!

YouTube - Stang v. Blown Ecotec Cav

me vs. blown cav vs fully built procharged stang

 

I've beaten a supercharged m3 do you want a cookie vids are on here
Lolz nice run

 

To bad You live in Canada it would b nice
To run 30 psi against 30 psi :-)

 

You mean 30 vs 25. Ive ran 30 for a total of 3 pulls maybe when I went gms1 and realized the malt tables are touchy as ****. Sorry but unlike some toolsheds I understand the meaning of turbo efficiency, also lolringlands. Ps. Supercharged m3s are slow. But BROOL STORY CO nonetheless.

* Edit: But yes, too bad.

 

Ill try that. WHat do you guys think the optimum RPM is to shift at when you hit peak torque? 4k?

 

There are so many variables about launching. Tires, road type (concrete, asphalt, prepped, not prepped), is the road dry or not, blah blah blah. You have to practice alot to determine the feel of everything. It is a skill that must be learned, not taught. IF you stop at a light going straight, even if you aren't racing try launching through second, eventually you will get the feel. Thats what I did with my older rides.

 

unless I've missed something, your car is a totally different ball of wax;

from the factory our ECM limits torque somewhere around 2k rpm - it literally flat-lines....

lemme see if I can find a pic...



I have probably been launching at too high of an RMP according to some info posted here - but I normally shift somewhere around 6k rpm ~ I am unsure if my RPD is to accurate and the tach is slow or not (can only watch one at a time!) ~ but wehn I used my RPD for the shift light feature, I could have sworn I slowed down (eg: shifted a smidge too early)

 

mmmkay

 

what?!

I'm seeing a debadged car in your sig, and this text behind it;
So I'm posting under the presumption that your sig is your car.

these guys have been talking about running their LNF cars;

I'm actually trying to help - and since advise they have given might be geared purely towards SS/TC's
~ I wouldn't know where to start looking for an LSJ dyno chart (let alone one that might match your car) to figure out where you make peak hp/torque - so don't ave a clue where your optimal shift point is.

What you want to do is shift just a little past peak hp - so that when you are in the next gear (keep in mind you loose a little bit of revs during a shift) you will be right at the sweet spot...
if you shift too early, you chance bogging...

 

Sorry. I TOTALLY THREAD JACKED!!! Its so early, just got home from a long day at the prison and I need to go to bed. My apologies to all.

 

Some people make it sound like a HP tune is something universal ...like trifecta . You can have an HP tune from someone like BYT or Term.......... Then there's joe blow at the local performance shop. It really makes it hard to get a true gauge of performance with a HP tune ........ they can be all over the place. Where as Trifecta's tuning stays fairly consistent . ( all thou some cars will data log different than other... and be able to run more timing or have to run less ..... ect ect ) We could see video's go each way forever with all the variables.

 

Pretty much this, in a nutshell.

 

I'm a newbie to the tuning side of things, and even I understood this...

I had equated some of some of the earlier posts to an online version of an endowment contest;


Now if I could just get this moates device to datalog my OBDI car... I might have a hope of getting the car actually set up right - rather than doing totally blind changes...

 

I remember replacing a obd1 93 corvette CCM with a tech1 . I was helping my buddy who was the service manager at our local chevy dealership . It had a digital odometer and during the reprogramming it asked for the mileage .... we could have put in anything we wanted lol....... Those where the days hehe.

With OBD1 everyone was chipping this or that ... I still get people who ask if my car has a chip in it or been chipped hehe.

 

yeah that's the way I do it, I physically bur a new chip, and replace it with the one from in the ECM;
iirc both OBD1 & the transitional "OBD1.5" were both that way...

 

Only homos drive Solstices... just saying.

 

ok, you took my manhood allusion, to a whole new level...

how's this;
if you have something legitimate to contribute, post up - if you're only looking to raise crap STFU.

I'd love to Have a Solstice GXP - make mine an '09/'10 coupe with the manual transmission please!
(of the few coupes I've seen, they have all been automatics; and only recently did I find out that a couple 2010's were built!)

 

i think the sky looks better

 

either as long as it has the hard top in dark silver.... drool

 

if by hard top, you mean the coupe, that was a Pontiac only deal...

 

\remeber that lolz il spank your cobalt in my trifecta solstice any day boy[/QUOTE]

bud first post says c my signiture for mods.....

 

hahah well show me how to drive without NLS lol

Edit: i also forgot to say this is on a **** motor too

 

Only homos ride 768's... just sayin'.

PS: RWD bro.

 

What is a 768?
And I was just messing around. I hate when someone drives a different car, comes to this forum just to faff the other members here. Everyone seems to get flustered by it.
