Drag track or road course?

Beauty of turbo cars are $500 for a tune and they really wake up even with no other mods. Plus awd from a dig helps. Are you fully bolted and tuned now? Should be fairly even from a roll unless they're really cranking the boost. Those cars fall flat up top stock

Watkins Glen track. Froma dig, it was no contest for them. I was as slow as a Pinto. Looking at their mods, nobody seemed to be going crazy. I know Evo's are pricey to start modding as well.

I'm fully bolted other than LTH's/Manifold work. Ecutek tuned. Just curious to see what I make now and how it'd hold against other fun cars. I can run a freight train on the genius modding his base model Civic that says Type RR on it....

Weird that yours would be crashing like that. I am over here with a single screen setup when just on my laptop and plugging into my dock via thunderbolt 3 allows dual monitor wallpapers to run. Right now, it's the Matrix screen with rainbow lettering that spells out my name lol.

Ahhh. Yeah all about the launch with a 6MT. I was never really good at it but wonder what was done if you felt that slow against them.

Yea. I need to find time and a closed spot to really mess around with LC and different percentages of TC. The few times I have tried LC, I am chirping the tires going into 3rd. I cover no ground from 1st into second. Then again, i am launching at the default 4,200rpm. I need to lower that and I think I need to reduce tire pressure as well.

Definitely lower it. Try around 2500 rpm.

^ This. I used to launch at 2500-2750. Seemed to be the best range for me where I wasn't spinning and didn't look like a total noob wheel hopping down the road.

Leingod 06-26-2018 10:02 AM

Hopefully this weekend I can test out everything. Haven't had many chances.

Damn I miss manual. My Q is definitely faster from a dig than my Z but there's not much involved in launching that car lol.

Well considering we now have people like this genius trying to sell junk, you're better off with the Q. The Z is cheap enough now that the morons can pick them up.
