105° - 107°F during the day and 80°'s at night.
Not bad, but I haven't had any time to go out and beat on it except at the track on the weekends and I'm a little to preoccupied to datalog at that point.

 

This summer has actually been rather mild.....I think it's Arizona's way of trying to make me stay LOL

 

Did a challenge with another turbo 8 over the weekend

Any SC guys want to join in ? OD ?

 

50-80mph 3nd gear?
I can do tomorrow if my new car isnt here. hehe.
OD

 

50-110 in 4th is what we did . If you do a log then email it to me i'll put it up in a chart form .

 

uhhh-- i dont have a strip of road that i feel comfortable doing that.
I have a flat long interstate entry in which i can get from 30-100 ok on--i have to shift--3nd to 4th? Can that be used?
Right now replacing power window motor and regulator in my sons Mini Cooper S--1st time doing this and it is a head banger.
Fun later today or even tomorrow
OD

 

do from 40mph to whatever speed you feel comfortable -but in 4th . good reason not to use 3rd ....

 

Ok guys I dont know how to do a screen shot transferred from my dude so here are some numbers---you can believe them or not:
30.4 mph
2748 rpm
@307.0 sec

80.1 mph
7172 rpm
313.0 sec

maf max of 338.5
load 181

I am on oem size tires
Lets see you finds the something "different".
It was a 3nd gear run---all I had room for--pretty congested around here on Sundays.
OD

 

What was your differential ratio? (stock is 4.4 or 4.7)
I want a 4.10 or a 3.9 ratio.

 

diff is 04 oem
OD

 

olddrager whats your setup? i just did a log and loading the info rite now

 

here are the results of my 3rd gear run 30-80 mph (no boost controller 8 psi dropping to 6.5 psi) i was getting some bogging under load..i have too large of a water meth nozzle, need to downsize and work on my mixture

30.45 mph
2911 rpm
2.09 time

80.78 mph
76.86 rpm
7.82 sec

**5.73**
im running 19x9.5 wheels and 265/30 tires
(the next chance i get ill turn on the boost controller and run the log again)

 

OD your gearing in 3rd (with the S2 g/box) must be very close to mine

This is an old log :

2636 rpm
29.1mph
413.2 s

7100 rpm
79.4mph
419s

So **5.8s**

can't remember tyre size for that run - probably 245/40/18

 

Can I play? :D

 

don't forget to adjust speeds for diferring tyres and wheel sizes! Your speedo on OBD II is assuming its running on 18s with 225/45s..

I should dig my logger out and do this at some point!

 

sure - that would be kinda interesting . Let's see what a v8 can do .
what does your 3rd gear wind out to ?
30-80 is unfair on the torqueless renny .
can you do 40-90 in 3rd ?

 

That should be doable. I'll try to get out and get some EFIlive logs this week.

 

OK - 40-90 and lets see if I can pwn your ***


My old log says

3603rpm
40.3mph
156.0s

8072rpm
90.0mph
162.2s

So **6.2s** 40-90

If you can beat that I'll go out and have another go ....

 

S2 box is the right answer --ding, ding, ding!!!
So I am geared a little taller than the cars with the s1 box--hince the lower rpm.
I have oem tire size

For those that do not know--i have the Pettit system with approx 9lbs of boost.
w/m also--not tuned for w/m ----only insurance purposess .
Now guys remember there are too many variables to really compare car--to car---but it IS fun.
OD

 

There are a lot of variable but I have to say that was a really good time considering the gear ratio . Did not expect a SC to get that close ...

 

he, he. I wish i could figue out how to get the image up? I right clicked the screen when the dude file is up and got nothing. Tell me how and i will try?

Some (not yall) may not think I am as honest as I am
OD

 

/\ easiest way :
With the image on sceen click the 'print screen' button on your keyboard
Go into MS paint and click edit then paste
Then click 'file' then 'save as'
In the top box save to 'desktop'
At bottom of box give file a name
Change file type to Jpeg
Click 'SAVE'
Now you have the image on your desktop and can import it into your post via the 'go advanced' button .

If you wanted it to be full sized you then save it into your photobucket account and inport it from there
Good luck

 

Quick tip: If you hold down ALT while pressing print screen it will only copy the active window rather than your entire desktop.

 

Thanks - i've been doing the 'edit' -'crop' thing up till now .

 

Thanks for the advice guys--if I have time I will try that tonight. The wife is making me go out and buy a new suit. My youngest Daughter is in the homecoming court and wants me to walk her out. Kinda proud moment, i need to enjoy that--time flies by so damn fast.
