nice looks like a handfull with auto even!

Car looks & sounds great J!
That car of yours makes some serious steam bro!

Do you have a line-lock?
Doesn't seem like your holding your burnout long enough.... maybe something to think about?

Car looks like it pulls to the left some & then you steer it back right....maybe a little ARB adjustment could straighten that out. Or maybe you just got out of the groove a hair.....kinda hard to tell from the camera angle.

What kind of 60's are you pulling?

Are you launching off of a transbrake in the video?

Sounds great - sits great - and runs AWESOME!!! Keep the vids coming!!

like i said before,bad a## car !

[biminiLX]

Thanks guys, looks like the upload worked.
I apologize for the motion sickness, my dad was learning the cam

The dyno vid was on a loaded Mustang dyno at about 15psi.
Unfortunately the battery died by the time we got to tuning at 19psi, but I can tell you it sounds much more pissed off at 19psi

Rob:
Yes, car has line lock, 2-step, AMS 2-stage boost controller but unfortunately none of those were working that day as the auto swap was finished the day before. The vid is from a track rental in August only off the wastegate spring at 13.5ish PSI. Hell, I had helped finish installing the rear gear at 4am and had to load the car at 7am, so quite a few things weren't perfect---not to mention the 92* heat.
Those were my first burnouts and track passes ever in an auto, huge difference compared to the stick, felt like a fish out of water big time.
Good eye on the suspension too, the car's anti-roll bar was binding and someone had changed one side coilover setting so the car was not set-up correctly. It has since been back to Team Z but unfortunately the flexplate/starter ate each other the day we picked it up at Team Z for the 2nd outing, starting the tear-down in the other thread.
Launches were off the transbrake at 2-3psi basically just to load the suspension, it now builds boost MUCH better on the TB with the 2-step.
60' were high 1.5s, best pass was 9.60 @ 148 with 1.58 60'
It went 1.51 60' with the stick (9.84 @149 at 15psi best).
Neither combination had been maximized due to limited testing time, I hope to change that later this year.

Plan is to have some 20psi dyno vids from Street Lethal later this spring and consistent mid-8s later this summer, you'll get vids of that too

I'm from Toledo, OH originally and its only about 30min from Milan, so its probably there and Norwalk where I run most.
Car is now in PA up at Street Lethal and should make some passes at PRP this year
Also has a shoot hanging off the back now, going to need it this year

I can totally relate to new combo jitters/testing....lol

Sounds like you got all of it figured out and that thing is going to be a real handful once everything is ironed out and clicking together!

Good luck with everything and let me know if you ever need any help or assistance with anything!

[biminiLX]

Thanks man, hope to see you at the track this year, same for me if you need anything give me a ring.
Computer/RPM thing resolved yet?

Thanks bro!

I have an Anderson PMS to tune with this year so that should eliminate any of those issues.......(or possibly creat new ones of its own...lol)
Wont really know for sure till I get her out there testing when April rolls around.
