alky control and turbo tweak come through again!!
went back to another track tonight with john to help him try to get a little more out of his car that put down an 11.18 last friday and got booted for no bar
this is on a TA49 93 octane and MT drag radials
details here http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/al...ch/266276-11-18-117-ta49-93-alkycontroll.html
added a little more fuel bumped timing up a little and pulled some 1st gear fuel and brought boost up to 24psi , he made an 1/8 mi test pass , the egts were down to 1615 , then he let er' rip , and it launched so hard he knocked the DS cable halfway loose from the ecm and that shorted the ecm out which led to a few pops and a loss of power ending up with a 13 second pass @78mph , he didnt know what happened it ran like crap down the return road and he thought he took out the motor and was preparing to put it on the trailer
fixed that reprogrammed the chip and told him to get back out there
congrats john !!!
heres the results
1.522
4.436
6.951 @ 96.92
9.152
11.052 @ 118.95
and the track official was waiting for him on the return road asking that he not run that fast again and advised him to lift at the top or get a bar
not a ten slip but im sure hes really happy about it

When they came back into view I heard the loud pop and had visions of pistons and connecting rods hanging out of the block!!! After checking it out Pauly said "you didn't hurt it...get back out there and make me proud"!! I think I accomplished that!!!
