Im heading out again. I know i can break into the lower 12s. Hopefully the track will be better prep than last time. If any of you want to join your more than welcome. My buddy Evan (nissan 300zx) will be out there.

 

I might be there with something, prolly too soon for my new combo to be ready. but in Aug, watch out.

 

awesome Marc! What are you going to bring?

 

Thats to be determined. might be a skateboard.

 

If I'm not in SF or watchin' UFC, I'll come out. You thought it wasn't prepped good last time huh?

In that case, I'll race. Marc will just end up putting nitrous on his to beat me.

 

If im running better i'll be running there. If not, I may come and be a grandstand pro racer

 

tell Bennie to hurry up dude

Get that car tuned Ant!

 

Well I ordered a new higher volume fuel pump off of our wonderful third gen classifieds. edelbrock brand 255lph tpi pump. This will allow me to run more PSI my gauge was showing 14.5 lbs but an underhood gauge is not 100% accurate, and even at that its only at an idle. And reading more about the TBI engines, it appears that the stock TBI pumps just barely get by feeding a stock TBI engine. So me being upgraded with heads, and a bigger throttle body with higher # injectors equates to recipe for disaster. So I am changing out the pump, see if I can bump up the pressure higher. Therefore having more pressure at higher rpm for more fuel volume and see how it does. If that does not take care of most of it. Then i'll be buying a flash ECM setup from www.dynamicefi.com and learn how to tune myself. so basically if the fuel pump takes care of it mostly then i'll be running it knowing i'll benefit more from a tune and then buy the program when I can really afford it. Wish me luck.

 

ill see if i can squeeze that into my calendar! maybe ill order up my lca's and brackets this weekend so i have something new to play with!

 

Do it eh!

 

I'm gonna run the shop van. 1998 Chevrolet Venture, 3.4L. I might shoot a 50 shot on it.

Better watch you azz

 

 

You guys can always come out on Wednesday night with us too!!!

 

Whatcha gonna be doin' down here Del?

I'd like to come out, but going down to Laguna Seca the weekend after so gotta ration that gas.

 

i'll try to make it out to a wednesday here soon. I just got the new fuel pump in the mail we are super busy at work so I dont know when i'll get time to install it. gotta make the money when you can

 

I was almost going to be in Monterey for the Laguna Seca weekend too, but plans got changed to Tahoe instead.

I think Sunday a buddy and I are going to just fart around SF for the day. Drink some awesome coffee, take in some atmosphere and get an epic grub on at Tommy's Joynt. Nothin' fancy.

So, I may come watch you fools for a couple hours on Sat.

 

Hey I may be a fool but leave the other guys out of that kind of talk!

 

An ignorant outsider might say we're all fools for investing $$ in these cars. Little do they know the awesomeness.

 

Yeah. Actually for the longest time I never looked at my car as nothing but a daily..then the charger went down and i started getting into these cars more and I really like them now. so much my friends and family give me **** saying I like the camaro better than the charger...which I dont...just have a E.T. goal for the Camaro that I wanna get! haha

 

Looks like SF all day for me on Sat, so I'll have to miss this one.

Good luck on a new best!

 

Oh going on a test run for the cruise path to see if your 4th gen can handle it?

 

Heh. I won't be driving this weekend thankfully. Driving the Lexy to Tahoe the next and then the 4th gen for the cruise. Maybe my 3rd gen in August, haha.

 

I'm out. new motor is taking a turn.

I'm going to be in Dallas for the first week of July and in Hawaii the last week of July.I should be ready by Aug.

 

Well im going, but i'll be spectating it looks like

 

im off work at 8 if you guys wanna do anything after...

 

guess you really need a tune huh bro?

im going to have the fam out again. Straight home for me

 

deffinately. I bumped up the fuel pressure more it feels better but with my scan tool showing way to many knocks under WOT. It isnt worth it to keep beating on it the way it is. Im saving up for the EBL flash and will be able to go in there and manually adjust things.

Tim and I will probably show up around 4-4:30 Mr Joey J.

 

Thanks for the good time Joey. For the food and everything. It was a hot, non packed day at the racetrack. Hopefully next time i'll be able to run mine again.

 

Good seeing a few of the TGO guys out there... Maybe one day I'll get the Iroc running

 

You wil man. You just gotta get started on it and once you get an engine and trans for it you'll be really motivated. dont forget to check out the cruise thread see if you wanna go

 

had a good time. I finally ran a 12.4 on my last run. The weather was just way to hot but the track was empty. Guess you cant have both things at the same time. Nice meeting you Matt. Get that things shifting right.

 

Oh so you did run one more after I left..sweet. At least you got back down to 12.4 it was really hot

Thanks Tim for getting those videos.

 

I wanted to see a 12.2 or better video dammit!

 

had an engine, sold it, still have a built/stalled 4l60e sitting in the garage... but at the moment I'm putting money away to open my shop so I can't spend that in the Iroc... Sucks

Nice meeting you too, Gonna be ordering a Tick Master soon so that I can shift it better...
