STRIKE 2 ! so far, i have spent about $800 total on intake mods... kspec intake and evo fusion BBTB... i have managed to make my car 4 tenths of a second SLOWER than what it was doing before using the stock manifold and stock TB..... WHAT GIVES !
car runs 3 tenths slower than before with the BBTB.
It also idles higher for some reason...
I have not yet utilized the Split Second fuel tuner...
but after i got home from testing.. I played around with it at idle, ..
the car idles at 1000 to 1000 rpms ...
if i turn down the low end fuel setting to -4 it idles back to stock levels... this means that its getting WAAAYYY too much fuel at idle... which may also be the case at WOT...
so, i'll go out again tomorrow and test again with various fuel settings... and then we'll see what I can come up with...
here are the times, in the order which i actually ran them:
15.99 @ 92
15.98 @ 91.8
15.99 @ 92.1
15.78 @ 94.2
15.58 @ 94.3
15.84 @ 92
15.76 @ 94
15.86 @ 92.7
15.86 @ 91.8
and just for reference.. here are the previous best 1/4 mile times with just the stock ported manifold and stock ported TB ..
#1. 15.78 < Warmup @ 93.x
#2. 15.43 @ 94.x
#3. 15.34 * Best time with this combo. @ 95.1
#4. 15.48 @ 94.4
#5. 15.41 @ 94.2
#6. 15.48 @ 93.9
here are the pics...
