#16799, "my luck sucks"


          



my car with 18 psi on pump gas



my car with 30 psi (for a split second) falling to 20 psi with a big boost leak somewhere.

nitrous still doesn't work (electrical problem now emoji)

I just wish my car woudl do right for one day. at least I know it has the potential to make 430 FWHP without nitrous......one day.

Actually, 30psi isnt really unheard of. There are lots of 4G63 boys boosting that much, and many many Honda, Nissan, Mazda and Toyota cars boosting that much. Maybe you just dont read emoji

if you can just bulletproof your hoses and piping, by golly I think you've got something there emoji keep up the great work. 30psi is a lot for a NT engine to be running with basically aftermarket pistons and rods, so i think thats a pretty big accomplishment. Atleast you drive your car, mine always seems to be under construction, it never ends.

Oh, I'm not saying its not impressive. Extremely impressive emoji I was just messing with Dave as if he'd never heard of any car running 30 psi. emoji

It is getting there Armond. You are dealing with the same problems that other people do at that level. Hey, it could be worse, you did not complain about breaking parts. The best part about that power is how solid that little 420A really is. emoji

Oh, I am impressed with two things - the power on pump gas and the super smooth curve on race gas. You are breaking up a lot on the pump gas. Why?

How does it feel on the road and how are those axles?

Oh, anyone else notice the rpms? emoji

We have two fuel cuts.

1st one - 7200 - fuel

2nd one - 7800 - ignition

How much is a DFI?

well.......actually I am complaining. I broke my driver side stage 2 axle today emoji

the pump gas runs is really rough becasue I asked ed not to put any of the smoothening in the graph on the dyno for that chart. that is what a hp and torque output graph looks like with no graph smoothening. IF I had not lost boost presure on the 30 psi run, the hp curve whoudl have just continued to skyrocket.

>How does it feel on the road and how are those axles?

feels good. really smooth power on the street. still breaks axles.
Guess I won't be going to the track on fri. emoji

>
>Oh, anyone else notice the rpms? emoji


yeah. half of my run sI wound it out until i heard the BANG from the tailpipe telling me my stock timing is done :-P

Armond never ceases to amaze me.

How about this....get a bunch of guys to push you off the 60' mark, then you grandma it to 145mph at the trap? emoji

That *may* prevent your snapped axles lol

seriously, how can you even drive the car on the street? you must be really feathering it...must be a torture.

hehehehehehhe. true that! it's wierd. as long as I don't give any sudden "shocks" to the system on the street, it usu. just boils the tires and goes on down the road. it's when I try to power shift into second spinnig at 6K or dump it in first is when it gives me fits. it just snapped at the track though. just couldn't take any of it.
