Auto Addictions Atco tonight!!

[autoaddictions]

Well the weather looks good tonight. Im going to try out the manual boost control to see if i can get more boost in 1st and second gear. Im also going to run a dump on he exhaust for the first time. I should get there by 7:00.

Re: Auto Addictions Atco tonight!!

Just got done installing the dump. i started to remove the hks boost controler and i relized that for the last 9 years i had it hooked up wrong. I was only hooked up to one nipple of the tial wastegate like a single actuator not a dual. I made the change and took it out for a test drive it feels like it spools up faster. I dont know we will see what happens tonight. Id like to see 30 psi threw all the gears not just top of third.

Re: Auto Addictions Atco tonight!!

Well the good news is the boost was up higher than before in 1st,2nd gear26psi. 28 psi in 3rd. It ran pretty well.10.90@127 1.53 60 ft. However I lifted the head gasket a little and it started to overflow the puke tank. I said the hell with it, emptied the overflow and went again. 10.78@ 128 spraying antifreeze allover the windsheild . Looks like upgrade time. I just payed all my credit cards off too!!! Run looked like this:

60ft 1.61
330 4.503
1/8 6.936
mph 100.56
1000 9.026
1/4 10.787
mph 128.33

Re: Auto Addictions Atco tonight!!

so you think the dump helped more or the boost controller change? sorry to hear about the head lifting, i hope the heads are good and its just new gaskets and studs....

Re: Auto Addictions Atco tonight!!

sounds good... Don's 92 ty back when it was running actually picked up something like 32hp on the dyno when he opened his exhaust cutout so im surprised you weren't running one before.
