If it is something I overlooked please post the link along with the timeslip. Or were you referring to a "corrected" timeslip?
Also, when you stated "Can you imagine what kind of power I would be running if I was at 17 AFR?", I hope you realize you can not just keep subtracting fuel on a car and it will keep making more and more power. Cars do have that "zone/range" you can tune within but if it was as simple as subtracting fuel to make more and more power then we would all have 3000whp dragsters when we ran our tanks out of gas because then we would have a 0:1 afr lol.
It was when I sent back my mani's to have them coated, and installed the stock mani's back on. It was only an 11.99 and not better than my best of 11.97 which is now 11.96 in AZ. What you dismiss with the mani's because of the cost is the fact they lower boost and still outperform the stock mani's. Less boost means my motor is not running as hard as others without the mani's. Test it yourself and come back with the results.
I know your sore that I don't acknowledge your 11 sec pass because it was on spray. Good job on driving, that deserves an atta boy!! There it is put it to rest or run an 11 without spray. Check the meth discussion on mb. I do believe it may cause some corrosion, but we won't know until someone like you tries it for an extended period of time. I give you credit for risking your motor for the forum. Another atta boy!!
On AFR's are you serious? That's not even a discussion.
Couldn't I have been anymore sarcastic for you to get it?
The only reason I encourage members to use DA readings when running at the track is so they can compare to other members with similiar mods under different conditions. At least they know there is not something wrong with their car. I know you disagree anything I say about DA, but that's ok just like we have our difference of opinion on the use of meth. Oh well.
Distant -- you will be there and I'll be happy when you do. It gives me hope to search for the same conditions and add an 11.7 slip to the mix. 11.6's that's a whole 2 tenths and it's hard enough to pick up a tenth, so don't think that will ever happen for me. I'm ok with it. I'm almost done with the six and will start saving for an SL55 a couple of yrs down the road. I'm sure Rob will have some goodies ready by then.
I'm done with this one, at least for a good week. LOL
