    What track is consistent when it goes from 40 degrees in the morning to 65 degrees during the day and back down to 40 degrees with the sun down? Case in point both cars were on the same track and nobody got "the hit" Carey's car was just tuned for the track conditions better.

    is anyone planning on attending/racing at this event? I've been there the last 4 years and i'll keep going every year as well. huge crowd,tons of racers imports and domestics going at it. watch the videos of past years. huge vendor midway setup with parts for sale as long as apparel. if anyone has the weekend free head over you won't regret it. fri/sat is qualifying and setup then sunday is all elims with the car show and bikini contest

    it was a great race... i was behind you in first round watching you guys go at it instead of doing my burnout. I knew it was going to be close. Yes James knows his car very well been racing it for a long time so being that close on a car you don't know very well was awesome. hope to see you out again.

    yeah the 4 ports are a lot better but the boost is there quicker and holds steadier with co2. no need to wait for manifold pressure.

    go down toward the bottom and you can download the pro data software. instructions,wiring,editor is all on it under help menu. Really the only thing that takes a bit settin up are the PID's

    Interesting that these boost controller companies are running the co2. With these mac valves and their algebraic formula for inductive reactance they lag until then end of the rpm. I notice people are running the co2 to get them to a desired target, Hondata wrote software to hold the waste gate shut with a solenoid until you reach a target psi then it would creep to the final few psi. Hence the quick spool feature on Josh's integra.

     

    using co2 is just replacing the manifold pressure. except the pressure is always being applied to the solenoids not having to wait for manifold pressure to build up. when you set the boost controller to run 30psi weither it be at a certain gear/time/rpm it's always there. spool time is faster, holds boost more steady than manifold pressure, and you can run the lowest spring pressure you can and still run pretty much as much boost as you want. running a small spring on the wg off manifold pressure and you won't see as much max boost so you would have to run a higher wg spring then you run into issues controlling traction off the launch and in lower gears. after running co2 and getting it dialed in you won't want to change back.

    Had the ams...don't get me wrong I liked it but wasn't the most user friendly to setup quicky between passes. I'm on the msd 7562 which is basically the same direction the ams is with co2 it's just laptop controlled and also datalogger. It's time based Also like the ams...oh and a lot cheaper

    testing out new boost controller on first pass. not bad considering no data from this controller yet. very promising considering what the logs looked like. once i get boost where it needs to be in first and 2nd short track will drop a lot. i let off twice on this pass in first and 2nd gear to calm it down.
