Made it to the track

[delong_1]

Last night I finally made it to the track for the first time all year. Made two 1/8 mile passes both 7.2x at 98 then 96 mph on the full pass I only ran a 7.4 1/8 11.4@121

Still have a lot of trans tuning to do went with stock shift points but it was shifting at just over 4,000 and every shift would hang and every pass it got worse but I don't think it was terrible for the first time out with the new motor, turbos, etc

This was at bandimere also elevation of 5600 iirc

Congrats Nate !!!! Give me a call if you keep having problems , its one of the main hurdles i had to fix with my truck when the power started getting up there .

Thanks guys, even as it is i didnt think it was too bad for a true daily driver

 

[Righteyeblind]

Awesome! Especially at that high of an elevation. How is the drivability these days? Are you still having the smoke/spool up issues you were a while back?

 

[delong_1]

Still hazy if I'm in the throttle enough to accelerate tried everything I can think of. I stepped down to 28lpm nozzles, it helped but still an issue. I went as far as putting a precision 4294 on it and that really didn't change the smoke just a bit easier to drive in traffic
