April 10th, Bandimere Test and Tune

Bimmer This · 04-01-2010, 10:08 AM

Wow Sid. Low 13's stock? That's pretty good considering Matt ran 13.7's which an extra 3 lbs. of boost. Does that mean that I might be able to pull off 12's?

I gotta see those slips Sid

raceyBMW · 04-01-2010, 11:57 AM

Sid, I'm pretty sure you meant low 14s stock unless you had JB3 on? With JB1 my best time was 13.99@101.3mph on a warm day with bad 60' (2.2s). What mph did you get on your best run Matt??

Agreed, the altitude sucks...but should be a nice cool day, so we should be able to get good times.

To convert your time and mph for the turbo car to what it would be at sea level, NHRA says to use these number.

http://www.nhra.net/content/about.as...601&zoneid=101

multiply your ET by .9638 and your MPH by 1.03865

So my numbers converted to sea level would be 13.5 @ 105mph which is decent all things considering.

Gonna be very hard to get into the 12s up here unfortunately...anyone running catless DPs?

Yeah, ME! V4, catless DP's, DCI's.

Dackz · 04-01-2010, 12:43 PM

Im in for sure now, and can meet wherever before hand. Should be a fun time.

F82_SID · 04-01-2010, 12:45 PM

Yep your right! I ment low 14s. 13 is when you need a helmet right?

jtmccabe · 04-01-2010, 01:27 PM

Okay guys, I should be able to make it.

Thanks man!

I am not that excited since I can never seem to break 14 even with my Dinan tune. Haven't done anything to my car since last time either. Oh well, it'll be fun to see how you guys do.

16M4 · 04-01-2010, 01:57 PM

low 14's isn't too bad for being stock. I cannot wait to run mine stock and see what it/I can do. I am also excited to get it chipped. Only with a JB3, you can run low 13s? That is insane!

Back in the topic, I am excited to make it on the 10th and meet you guys!

If you burned it and its free......burn another and bring one for me

raceyBMW · 04-01-2010, 02:35 PM

BimmerThis (Vince right?), you are gonna be pretty fast out there, fastest of all us I expect. I am gonna take a guess now and say you will hit low-mid 13s. I just don't know if 12's are possible up here without full bolt-ons and maybe meth. You going to use race fuel?

Matt, do you still have the SSTT installed?

If you don't have a helmet (like me), come out and run and if you hit the 13s, just rent one from them. I hit 13s (barely) the one time I went and they said I needed to get a helmet, but I never did...and never hit the 13s again, lol. Definitely going to work on getting my 60' down, cause last time was pretty pathetic....I mean I have an auto, it should be easy.

I'm thinking vincent will hit low 13's hopefully high 12's if he can get some traction

I actually sold the SSTT Craig, now running procede. Only about 2 psi more boost but I'm hoping it makes a difference and with the CDV delete I hope that helps the shifts too. I also have much lighter wheels now but I doubt I will see any measurable difference with those.???

Yeah. I'll be happy with low 13's. High 12's will be even better. 100 octane is a must. Juts like Matt stated, finding traction will be hard.

I'm gonna hit up a gas station on 32nd and Wadsworth for the 100 octane.

Vincent, where was the place you mentioned earlier today?

About 56th and Ralston. Sinclair gas station. They have the green dinosaur
statue out front.

Yeah, I remember that place. At least we have some options.

They do have fuel at the track so people don't have to drive out of their way to get 100. Keep in mind this stuff will be in the neighborhood of $7 to $8 bucks per gallon.

I really don't anyone using more then 2 gallons there.

NOT!

Yeah, I'm hoping to get the car down to fumes before I fill it up. Want as little of the 91 in as possible.

Dackz · 04-01-2010, 04:22 PM

Matt....pretzel = deal!!!

If I can avoid gas I will but we will see. I dont think Ill do race gas though, just 91 to see what it does normal. If Im not in the 13's with the V4 Im going to be upset. I like to think that I can shift pretty well, but launching with that V4 might be tricky

Either way, we should all be pretty quick.

raceyBMW · 04-01-2010, 04:38 PM

For all your V4/JB3 guys, 13's or don't bother coming to this forum anymore...

But seriously, if I can break into the 13's with just JB1 and intake (not even DCI) and a 2.2s 60', then you guys should have no problems. I am planning to do better this time because of my 275 width tires have a decent amount more grip than the 255's I ran on last time. Not sure if I am going race gas or not, probably won't make much difference for me.

I already ran in the 13's with my measly little sstt... I better get in the 13's with the v4 and it better be quicker than 13.798 otherwise this was not a good purchase
