So some new LIVE ACTION PACTION GET IN HURRRRRR! New setup this year, now that I'm no longer beholden to anyone (yes this means you Uncle Sam), I'm going to every track event I can get my hands on! The list of mods is as follows:
- Hellraiser 2.7 Pulley
- IDX 1050x Injectors
- Kenne Bell BAP (about to yeet this bitch for a bigger set of pumps)
- FI IC Spacers + Heater Blanket
- Pinned Crank
- S&M Drive Shaft Hoop
- DSS 4" Drive Shaft
- P4D OG differential Brace.
- HHP Racing Springs
- JLT Intake
- JLT Catch Cans x2
- RaceStar front skinnies wrapped in Sportsman S/R
- ForgeStar D5 Beadlocks wrapped in Mickey Thompson ET Street R.
Today was the first day with the new pulley and I am working with OST Dyno on getting the tune dialed in. Mike has been 100% awesome to work with and even identified some trans troubles I may have to address soon. Currently on Rev3 of the tune and it is a baby tune. As insurance at the track I added 2 gallons of Sunoco 104 oxygenated (aka 260 gt plus). The car was a beast with what little timing was in the tune (still running 93 and I don't want to go boom.) which is around 9* maximum. Here are the times from today's run:

Right now as the car sits. I have a 10.50 index bracket car for sure. But there is plenty left in it and this is only the beginning. Unfortunately my go pro died after the first video. I have to buy a new go pro, think I cooked it in the heat last year and it never recovered lol. Also the most important part. That zero is no mistake.

So lets talk about trans issues... I don't know if the trans it hurt but in Street Mode at WOT, the transmission does not want to shift. I drop the trans into Sport (most agressive, fight me) and it shifts like a charm, I wonder if the line pressure is not enough or if there is something more nefarious going on, only time will tell, worst case scenario, I'll be getting one of those fancy WAR... transmissions.
It feels good to be back and I can't wait to go faster. Shout out to
@ostmike for helping me not blow my car up!
