Last track day results...I'm stoked!
 
Today was a good day at the track, I upped my timing to 20 degrees intial and have switched to Magnaflow mufflers. I also tried shifting it higher in the powerband (5800 instead of 5300). I was rewarded today with a sticky track (but hot air) and ran new best 60', ET and MPH. New times are 13.186 @ 106.09 mph, 2.059 60'. My old best was 13.47 @ 103.93 and 2.095.
This is all in 100% street trim, 17" totally bald tires, stereo in the hatch, etc.
Next year I'll be back with coilovers in the front, wider tires out back, and a Novi 2000 blowing some boost in there. :D

good runs man. i hope to be there too. my best is 13.2 at 112:eek: spraying with a 2.1 60' time. With seeing your times, i should be in the 12's with some traction! well done;) i hope to go one more time next friday and see what i can do!

Ya the car was looking good out there today. Too bad things didnt work in my favor with my car. We'll see if i have something for you once my next project is done. And remember you said your going to help me not sabotage me. But I cant wait to see your car with the blower on it. It should be nice. cant beat it when a clean car walks all over you.

The Novi 2k is a MONSTER of a blower. You're going to love it. How many #'s do you plan on running?

I just finalized the order today. I plan on converting it so I can run a blow through MAF, and run as big of a powerpipe as I can in front of it with stock pulleys. If I see 11-12 psi I'll be happy. I'm hoping to peg around 470 rwhp on a Mustang Dyno with it next season... :D

Good luck on the blower setup.

12 psi for the 2K is CAKE. I can't wait until you really push it...I mean REALLY push it. 20+ psi :D :cool:

***SHAMELESS PLUG WARNING***- If you haven't already checked it out, go to www.novipower.com and poke around. There is a wealth of information within the site!

Thought about turbo but didn't do it for 2 reasons. 1) Way too expensive for me as a college student to drop that kind of dough at once. I got a good deal on the Novi through a group buy. 2) How much is too much? I'll surely make enough power to jeopardize the stock block with the Novi and can grow way beyond that yet. Why do I need a turbo? :) You can use the power under the curve argument but I don't buy it...I can't hook the power up anyways down low...
BTW I am a member of Novi Power also, just haven't got around those parts very much yet.

Say goodbye to Mr. T5 and the stock short blocks don't like blowers either but hell its all in fun hu?

Stang_Crazy 10-07-2003 09:56 PM

LOL Sedanman. His poor T5 will be begging for mercy!
