Guest tbutera2112 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 did you get all your safety equip finished? or you plan to get booted after one pass and just see what you can do that first pass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomicfusion1647545515 Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 10 point cage is completed.... Parachute is installed.... NHRA Certification to 8.50 and licensed to boot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 With the pulls on the dyno this morning, traction is going to be a night mare out of the hole. We have some boost dialing in that needs done, and some more chassis set up I have a feeling. But we dont have a whole lot of time for testing until norwalk an super chevy.

Are you running a digital boost controller? I hope someone gets this on video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know yo guys are good but anyone think about getting a controller to set boost per gear and how much and when. They make controllers that increase boost with rpm...

Evolved8 Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 apexi avcr does that by rpm, i know on honda's the hondata s300 does gear dependent boost by rpm as well, im not sure if there is any v8 computer tuning software that does that without aftermarket boost controllers?

They make controllers that increase boost with rpm... He has got an Apexi AVC-R controller in the car now. Just need to sort the new tranny out a bit more and then dial it in based on that as we get some more passes in. It really needs a set of slicks to come out on boost...
