This is Duys thread, dunno why ur hijacking it with ur 150kw honda.
Sorry if i offended u B20B, but this is just my opinion.
I know.... we just ended up talking about how bad i am at doing the drag racing thing
13.5 is a great time i think I'll wait till winter and try again
from talking to others about the drag times they have informed me that if you do run after run (like I did) there times went from 13.5 and ended up doing 14.1 in there rx8 ..Cool down of engine is very important..popping the bonet on the drive back after a run is a good idea and having it open as long as possible
and they informed me there girlfriend does 1.8 60 ft time preetty good
i thought my mph should be a lot better than what I ran
How it felt behind the wheel was that i used up to much track wheel spinning in stead of excelerating quickly..with less track left to gain speed hence the low mph
actually, the basic theory is that with a better launch ie: less wheel spin you cover more distance initially with a lower speed. therefore you reach the 60' mark with a lower mph. and then that leaves you with less distance and less time to reach a top speed.
so as mentioned, less wheelspin and a good launch will actually result in lower mph.
i'd put your car on another dyno. while the numbers wont be the same, different dynos should still be close enough to show whether you're being had, cos you're mph is way off for 150kw.
to put it into perspective, a B20 powered EK over here with ~ 175hp atw (130kw) was getting trap speeds of around 106 - 107mph (ET 13.3).
is that what a mugen twin-loop sounds like?.... i thought it might sound a bit more ballsy... than again its hard to hear anything over the howl of the b18c lol
nice, i'm trying to do a conversion with a B18c7 within the nxt 3 months in my EK, not running itb's just running stock for a while except headers and intake..
did you do a run on the dyno with the stock B18c B4 you strapped every thing on.
BTW what suspension setup are you running?
I have tein with the EDFC i like it, id like to see how it goes on the track and strip..
Cheers Rob, would have been cool if you drove my car around QR to see what it's really capable of.
Lol about the mugen twin loop. It's main purpose is to keep it quite :P (need to hear the quads man!)
Yer Kiet told me about you doing swap, asked how for cain's or rocky (i forgot) was from me so i could give you a hand if you needed it. They got no idea lol.
