First Time 1/4 Mile with a Turbo Charged D-series Hints??

[barefootbonzai]

yeah i'm not gonna set by and let someone like yourself talk shit about my car, especially when it's actually achieved a lot in the honda scene in Australia. Don't forget you're the dumbass that said Luke's car will beat the time i ran over 2 years ago. If i was you i'd feel like a total dumb arse for makeing such claims just to be proven wrong.

and that's the only reason i'm posting, not here to give him advice on drag racing.

Haha,luke will be just doing 2 burnouts,one in the pit & one on the start line,with the thing sitting there on a launch controller with full boost dialled up.

I cant even get my underpowered heap off the line with the LC set at 3000rpm.Its all about throttle control on street tyres

by LC if you mean Launch Control. "Launch control" and "Anti-lag" are 2 different features.

Launch controll is about lowering your rev limiter to your desired level (as im sure you allready know)

Anti-Lag is a Turbo only feature. Designed so you are able to build up your full boost stationary before you launch.

There is another world besides drag racing.

this is the only world that matter jimmy hehe...

Duy if your posting in here just to argu with me. The PM me or add me on MSN. Your car HAS (i agree) achieved alot in the honda scene in australia. Id never try ruin that.

Just remember that mate. It doesnt feel nice when people shit talk you car. Remember this convo next time your laying crap on someone elses car.

I stand by everything i say. I wont wake up in the morning and delete it. Simple reason luke did not pull a equal or better time is he was not able to sustain his 130wkw for 100% of his run, as well as failing deliver 100% of his 130wkw to the ground on launches/shifts(due to simple in-experience)

Your car made 120wkw at 0psi. This means you had 120wkw for 100%. As well as the experience to put it too the ground.

Simple Physics. All conditions equal. (as we are purely compareing setups). 130wkw in a lighter car will go faster then 120wkw in a heavier car.

Say what you want duy. If this were really about the topic at hand and not just trying to publically humilliate me and proove me wrong, you would actually discuss this privately. Rather then ruining lukes thred, as well as your own reputation.

fatboyz (i assume your name is jimmy). If your talking about circuit/track raceing, and that what we were discussing, then i wouldnt be fighting the point that im on about now.

Man some people are just thick. How is it possible for anyone to be at max power for 100% of the trip. If you had half a brain that would mean my car's dyno graph would be a straight line @ 120kw from 0rpm - 9000rpm.... um WRONG.

And since you're too thick to understand basic things, for his mph he is not really making 130kw's. Many have already pointed out that the dyno seems to be a happy one.

[Sexc86]

Some have pointed out it "may" be happy. But whos to say his was anymore/anyless accurate then your dyno readout?

By maximum power im talking about his full boost. (terminology) Hes not makeing 130wkw at 0,3,5,7 PSI is he? No its at 10psi. If hes launching on full boost, rather then 0 and haveing to build it up, as well shifting in a way that hes not looseing boost (and haveing to make it back up again)(Do you know what turbo-lag is?) Its going to be a little different. That is what i ment by his max power, and how it needs to be at that level 100% of his run.

I think your the thick one buddy. I thought you would know that drag raceing with FI setups and takeing into account the amount of time a car is on full boost vs 0psi/boost building, will cause major variations in MPH.

YES luke did 98MPH. YES that 98MPH maxed out with a decent launch may only be good for a low 14/high 13. But that was with his car on full boost for aprox (85%) of his run. Should it have been (100%) the MPH would have been alot higher.. hence representing his power figer. This is the concept i have been trying to get through to you. Mr Naturally Aspirated.

Cause we've already said it a million times, MPH doesn't lie. That's how we know it's a really high reading on his dyno, obviously you have problems understanding the concept.

Once again, i'll rephase what you're trying to say... The setup he has, has a very narrow power band, which is not very useful in REAL life applications.

[fatboyz39]

Luke, post up your dyno graph again.

[barefootbonzai]

lmao @ 100% of the time. It's not possible for any car to run @ 100% of it's max power all the time, boost or na.

[Sexc86]

LISTEN!

No its not possible for a car to run @ its peak power ALL the time.

It IS possible though to have a car be running at FULL BOOST 100% of the time.

Just like it is ALSO possible to have a car running NOT running at Full boost 100% of the time. Such as luke. Due to turbo lag on slow shifts and bad launches (just comeing down to in-experience).

So sorry that prooves your MPH garbage incorrect for FI anyway.

eg. my setup (yes i know its just a crappy 14sec setup like you keep saying like a broken record) over my 30 timeslips (that i all have here) all have MPH vareing from 91MPH to 100MPH. Exact same setup, tune, boost, poweroutput.

Yes i guess its all a big excuse. But end of the day its just the truth. Practice makes perfect, there is alot more left in lukes car then your Stubburn N/A mind can comprehend. Weather or not he gets to that level is a different story.

Seriously think you should do some reasearch on turbo lag if you want to keep pushing this point
