Any one got any idears?

from what ive seen at the race track, similar setups run mid to high 12s with amateur driving. after a few trips to the track, you get much more comfortable, which will ultimately net better e.t.s

I would love to see some 12s just hve to wait and see. I'll just get use to everything and stick with my 255s and then when I get some experience I'll throw on some dr's. I want to drive my carr !!!!! Its been garaged for about 4 months now Indiana weather sucks.

got a friend with some drag radials you could try out? it's a whole new feeling when you don't spin as much

blakehunter316 · February 23rd, 2009, 07:45 AM

superbean · February 23rd, 2009, 09:37 AM

you've got some pretty low expectations buddy! haha its not a bad thing! shoot a video of it on the dyno...what chip are you using? good luck

Hey blake, if you have time to safe... ditch the fmu, and boost retard if you have that aswell. Get a nice big maf, 42lb, and real dyno tune on a chip. Small injectors and an fmu are simpily not the way to go. 6lb on bigger injectors maf and a chip vs using the fmu, you will notice a difference in hp.

I agree ditch the fmu and get the car tuned right.. the fmu is merely a band aid if you don't have the bigger injectors to support the mods.. Sure the fmu will work if you don't have the time/cash

flattusmaximus78 · February 23rd, 2009, 11:15 AM

I was going to do it. I scavanged around for a while. Found some 42lbers for 180, then an 03 cobra maf for 65 bucks which is a 90mm, then a adapter for the maf 39 bucks. Then get a power pipe. You'll see 8 psi on a 6psi pulley combo!

blakehunter316 · February 23rd, 2009, 11:16 AM

Time isnt really the big deal its the cash.... i may be able to do injectors and a tune maybe but i have about 600 ish dollars right now... my birthday is coming up and my tax check so maybe i can get it done without an fmu. they want 550 for a tune with a chip supplied by them. but i still would need my injectors and a maf. wich i dont know if i can do. Can i do it without a mass air? o wait no cause its got to be calibrated to the injectors...... this is my problem i dont have another 1000 to spend on tuning. SO... i am getting a fuel pressure regulator and timing as of now wich will let me run safe. now if for some reason i can find a mass air and injectors and come up with money will it hurt my mileage more than the fmu/fadj fuel reg setup. because i drive it everyday in the summer.
