Any time.... I have race gas and a full bottle. Im slow w/o those two.



We had my plugs out 3 times during the course of the evening. Once to put in the br6es' that I bought (Im not very smart). After I called mike C and he told me I was an idiot, I put the 7s back in. Didnt help. We took them out to regap them down a bit but As soon as I hit boost, Studder stumble. My Vac line fell off the fpr and I ran a 20. Aparently the redneck in a t-bird next to me thought I was trying (with a 20 second slip) and showed me how excited he was by doing a burn out in the return road. He ran a 15. I hate white people.

Not bad for a POFS. I think more nitrous will take care of the misfiring Ken. :D How much boost creep do you get when the nitrous hits? What did your plugs look like? Nice Job man, you had Mikey pretty worried.

it goes to about 26psi which may very well explain the sputtering. I am quite aware of a few boost leaks that need to be addressed.

The plugs dont look bad as my o2s were still .98 or 1 the whole time.

Ken simply isn't afraid to do things with reckless abandon like the rest of us are. :beer

Honestly, to say I "tune" it would be giving more credit to my efforts than is deserved.

The 95 ECU sucks in that I can only get 10 reads a second which in a 3rd gear pull, is nothing. Basicly I check how much timing Im getting at the top of the gear and lean it out on the safc until i reach 15-18. I keep an eye on the o2s but I have never been below .98. Of my runs on friday, I had a sucessful long on one of them.

I think i can give most of my credit to the DSMChips ECU chip that I have that corrects for the injectors so I dont advance the hell out of my timing when trying to lean it out.

I dont think Im anywhere near the edge nor do I have to go there to reach my ET goals [faster than MIKE].

you didn't HEAR that i run 10's yet?

was this a lucky pass or did you get a couple other 11's? i don't want you to be holding onto a timeslip that was made possible by the planets being aligned, the increased distance from the moon reducing gravity, a strong tailwind, and a consistently inconsistent timer. kinda like that ONE 12.99x that you ran eons ago, making you a proven fury to be reckoned with.

i'll see you at the track.. :p

Ken,
Good job man, you seem to drive that car like it oughta be driven. Seems like a lot of people should learn to drive their car at the track the way ken does!
