Rep Power: 280 LA for us is Louisiana heh I've heard other places use Midnight Madness. its a once a month thing during the summer racing season. 10pm - 2am race all you want. street cars (mainly imports) only. its alot better then the test n tune wednesdays that you have to wait FOREVER to run.

Rep Power: 260 lol everyone thinks LA is Los Angeles. understandable, yet funny. some guy in cali wanted to do a local pick up on my $20 strut bar and i said if you wanna drive thousand+++ miles then come and get it for free lol

Rep Power: 280 stock resonator in/out is like 1.5".. no good.
resonator and muffler are in the works.. first i will try just the 3" in/out muffler to see how that sounds.. if its still too loud resonator will be added too. I did some adjusting today it was rattling like hell all over the bottom. I repositioned the hangers to pull it back a lil bit and added a 2" section at the bend over the axel to give the pipe some room to move cuz it was sitting against the swaybar and against my bumper. It still rattles a bit now but no where near as bad. I don't know when im gonna make it out to the track but i'll keep you guys posted when i do. more vids coming this weekend hopefully.

Rep Power: 278 be careful boosting that much with out a tune these rods are weak. how is the exhaust at the subframe cross over? does it rattle when it gets warm at all? mine has that much clearance now but when it rains for some reason it still rattles. this should make a big difference in power even at the same boost levels. what size is your down pipe? what are your egt's and your AFR at 10psi? damn i wanna see some numbers. i like the Dezod kit alot if i were to ever boost my vic it would be with their system. but i am going to boost my 96 teg instead, i can make way more power but boosting my vic would be fun too.

Rep Power: 280 @ 9.5-10 psi AFR are around 11.8-12.3 EGT peak around 1275-1290. i've retarded the from boost starts till redline.. increasing from -2 to -5 at the most. Dataloggin with my obd2 scan tool shows my timing @ WOT in that range to be at around 22-23 degrees BTDC. heading to the 1/4 tomorrow, will post slips, video when i return.

Rep Power: 280 Update!
Went to the track tonight, man was it terrible. Traction owns me hardcore. The very first run was the worst, 16.8 lol. The best I could do was a 15.3. I'm tired, i'll post some slips and video even though its bad haha. On the street and on the track 4k-redline in 2nd and 3rd gear I lose traction. The car actually slides to the side. I tried launching at 3k,2.5k and lower.. anytime I hit the gas a lil bit the tires wouldnt hook up. It was hot and muggy so that had some to do with it.
I wont be back to the 1/4 anytime soon, the turbo is leaking oil in the downpipe, so i gotta get it rebuild soon. I'm also gonna perfect the exhaust fitment (add muffler), make a duct for the intake filter (isolate it from the engine bay). all little things for now, i need a break from all this work ive been doing. I'll convert the vids, scan the slips tomorrow.

Rep Power: 278 well that is good practice at least and you knocked off 1.5 seconds off you first time. i still think you should be able to put down low 14's at this point though.
