My drag results

N/A,

Shaun from Boost Worx tuned my car.

Steve,

What did you write to start with mate? EDIT: Forget that, just saw the bit you deleted. Yeah dude I ended up getting a Turbosmart Type 2 V port. I'm not interested in big trumpets and lots of noise, just high CFM capability, and the ability to hold big boost. Ben's Supra runs the same valve and it's never even looked like leaking, even at 28psi. Quite a few big boost/power drag cars use the same valve without dramas. That's good enough for me Annnnnd maybe it might have something to do with the fact it's blue/silver

I told a GFB rep about how much power/boost I was running with the GFB "Basic", he gave me a wide eyed look and said, "no wonder it was struggling, it's not made to handle those levels! It's actually a stout little BOV considering it didn't leak until ~18psi.

Lach,

Really well actually mate. He had a best ET of 12.1 and a best MPH of 120+.

Near on 210rwkw and bugger all weight certainly makes for a quick little car! Shaun can drive too! 1.7 60ft on one pass.

Cool, yeah driver and low mass certainly help.

Matt, you ricer:p I had one of those, they are nice and shiney, match your engine bay beautifully. Thank god you didnt get the type 3, they leak like a sieve.

I seriously think you should just borrow shaun's slicks, just for one run - just to see what you can do - my money would be on mid/low 11s:) Go on, as Danny would say, dont be weak....

Hahaha, yeah Steve deep down it's all about the Rice baby, itz fully sik mate I had a type 3 a while back, yep it wasn't the best.

I've been thinking about the whole drag tyre thing, I'm not that keen on full slicks (doesn't go with the street car theme - HPI drag challenge) but a smaller rim and larger profile might be on the cards... 15's or 16's with a bit more side wall. Shaun ran Yoko A032R's on a 14 or 15" rim and they were brilliant! Those ET Streets down at the workshop actually belong to Ben.

Lach,

Yep good call, low mass is another very big help, so much easier to get it moving off the line.

what car does shaun own?

[TIMMMAYYY]

S2 RX7 I think.

[whatsisname]

Series 2 or 3 RX7 with a fairly tidy 13B turbo. It's all been parted out now. They don't muck around!!! Ran the car on Sat' and the parts are sold already!

[TIMMMAYYY]

[whatsisname]

Yeah mate that's the one.
