Test runs at the track with the evil_eagle

[evil~eagle]

This was a few weeks ago, but I was out on the new turbo setup and new Hoosier quick time pro slicks and new suspension, tuning the car and just testing it. Clutch would not hold for shit so it forced me to do roll outs all day. Best pass of the day on the 3rd pass was a 10.77 @139.79mph with 32-33lbs and a woping 2.0 60ft rolling out.We also had a nasty 35mph Head wind to boot.
New turbo is a T4 T67/ptrim with a .82ar exhaust housing, still trying to tune the AEM to the new turbo. Time will only tell.
Since this day I now have a new Quartermaster Twin disc clutch, 100shot direct port nitrous, and acouple other goodies. Going back out to get that low 10 sec to high high 9 sec pass and 140+mph pass on June 10th.

that sucks about the clutch issue i could tell that you where easying it off the line. hope too see some 9sec vids...

[AL92]

A bit confused ..you had what clutch in the video..?
Man you are always swapping around hardware and you have gone thru some pretty cool stuff. Find your posts very interesting.

I am going to try to be happy with my FP3065. I can't afford to keep changing my setups on this car have my other projects to work on. But at least can live vicariously thru you Evil! Keep up the good work. I will be thrilled if get a mid 11 with my car with the 3065 and in heaven if get a 10 out of it ever.

Clutch that was in the car during that video was the ACT 2900 with the street disc, it just was not doing the job anymore. So now I have the Quartermaster twin disc clutch that holds just about everything you throw at it. But I have yet to make a pass at the tracks with the new clutch.
As far as changing parts out, everything is about the same except the new turbo setup and the direct port and clutch. All the other things are just add ons. The motor is still the same motor as of 3 seasons now.
I do however change turbo setups every season. 1st it was the 3065, then the 3575 and then the T67 T4 with a ptrim wheel.

And thanks guys! :D

Ok thought you had a 2900 and street disc.Was thinking of trying that if the hd 4000 don't work for me but not going to be racing like you do so figure clutches should last me a lolng time.
So heard about the twin clutch be curious as to how streetable it is ,pedal pressure and chatter if any. I am not afraid to spend money on my car if need be. I would think trans and axles would be good upgrades next year. Evil I forget are you on upgraded tranny and axles? is the transfer case a weak link also at the bigger power levels?Heard someone makes a tougher one of those now??

I hope running street tires keeps my stock trans and axles alive at least until next year when can afford to upgrade that stuff.

[turbotwin77]

yes i warship the ground you walk on , nice job :burnout:

[turbolover]

Thats bad ass! Need to see some track shots now.

Depends realy on what you think is streetable. The clutch is very noisy when you push the clutch in and it sqeaks like a belt evertime you take off or a low rpm shift. When I 1st put it in it was really hard to get used to as it would chatter like holy hell, but after awhile now it's broken itself in and loosened up alot. SO it's alot easier to drive now then what it was when new.
I don't recomend this clutch for daily use though, it could get tuff during heavy traffic. But all and all I love this clutch and it's the best thing I could have done to the car. The car shifts 10 times better with this clutch among alot of other things. Pedal pressure feals like a ACT 2100, very light pedal.

I am still on stock rear axles and stock tranny with a welded center diff, stock transfer case as well. It's all in the driving. I take it easy out of the hole and I don't power shift. SO the tranny and drivetrain is still holding up very well. I am sure once I get a solid launch out of it then it will snap a rear axle one of these times. But thats the price you pay for drag racing, you allways take that chance of breaking somthing.

Last season i went a 10.66 @138.99mph on good ole Toyo proxies 215/45/17 street tires. Car spun like hell, but it saved the drivetrain in the long run.

[brokeawd]

nice.

[95RedRS]

Haha...My name on the local boards is Evl Egl...I cant even compare to you.

One day maybe :) I've been following your progress with all the new stuff you post. Def impressed. I just blew my stock T cse with 168k on it. How many miles are on your driveline?

[Polked4G63T]

thats just sickening....pls post new vids soon!

[90GSXDan]

Damn Jake,
Your setups are getting sicker and sicker. But you should definitely do 1 thing. Open the exhaust!! Go to a 4" and youll really unlock alot of power.

Best of luck to you and your quest for 9's!
Dan (btw, following your footsteps with the FP 3575! :P )

[AL92]

I am a few steps behind him with my fp3065. Its hard to keep up with Jake!! :)

[K_Mans_TSI]

i gave up on steps i just went to a 70 just to be "cooler" than him

The exhaust is fine the way it is. We have tested back to back with the exhaust and with the downpipe disconnected, no gains. So I do not see a 4" exhaust helping me at this point.
Good to see you got the 3575 turbo, best of luck with it man! You will love it.

And thanks for the kind coments guys.

Which clutch disks did you go with on the QM? I'm seriously thinking to switch to a QM but I can't decide which disks to use. I'm leaning towards to feramic disk since I have the single feramic disk now. I've also heard that the twin carbon's are very nice as well.

I got the Quartermaster twin disc clutch from Devo tuning shown here http://www.devotuning.com/drivetrain.html
Its the 7.25" v-drive clutch.

It's the bronze metalic disc's. There are extremely noisy. It sqeals like a small belt everytime you take off and somtimes when you shift driving around town. And on decel while you are in gear it's noisy and makes the drivetrain noisy on decel as well (driveshaft)
But other then that, that is the only downside of the clutch. I love it, my tranny has never shifted this good. Obviously ACT has a major problem with disengagement. The disengagment and engagement are almost instant with this clutch. So very fast shifting is a breaze. As soon as you start to press on the clutch you are pulling the next gear. I had to get used to it as I could not get my foot off the gas quick enough before the clutch disengaged. It was pretty funny watching me drive it while I was getting used to it.
You can sliped the holy hell out of this clutch, beat on it all day, and it does not care at all. It just works!
When the clutch was new it was the biggest whore to drive on the streets, but after a few test launches it loosened up alot and is alot easier to drive now.
So if you can deal with the noise and a once in awhile chatter then this clutch is badass. I have gotten used to it so much that I don't even think about it anymore. You can get the carbon carbon disc's for it and it won't be as noisy.
This clutch is by far the best investment I have put into the car. The clutch is fully rebuildable as well. And Adam at devo tuning is a awesome guy!! He sent me these parts 3day air at no extra charge.

Clutch and disc's
floater plates
flywheel
new flywheel bolts
brand new modified clutch fork
new throw out bearing
alingment tool
$1100 shipped for all of this and he 3day aired it to me at no extra charge.
So you get everything you need to install this clutch. Just slap it all in and away you go. No modifiying it at all. If you do get this clutch make damn sure if you have any shims in the clutch fork pivot ball to take them out as this clutch is alot thicker then your normal ACT or the like. You will have to adjust your pedal as well, no biggie, easy job.

Thanks for the info!

sick sick sick, keep it up.

[evil~eagle]

well I took the car yesterday and the poor stock tranny after 3 full seasons finnally shit the bed. I either broke a shift rail or the 3-4 shift fork. My 1st pass I missed 3rd gear yet again so that lead me to beleive there was somthing going on with 3rd gear, I aborted the run. My 2nd pass I was on my best pass ever with a 1.591 60ft and a 4.300 330ft, went to grab 3rd gear and nothing but air.

The tranny is stuck in 4th gear right now so out comes the poor stock tranny. Time for a shep trans.

By looking at my timeslip from my 10.66 @139mph pass from last season I had a 1.7 60ft and a 5.0 330ft. On the pass my tranny broke I was .7 tenths faster to the 330ft mark.
1st and 2nd gear only on that pass, no 3rd or 4th and I still coasted to a 11.9 @82mph. So judging from previous mid 10 sec timeslips I am thinking it was heading for a 10.0-9.99 pass. Car was unreal fealing out of the hole and through 2nd gear.
I was bound to happen sooner or later. But I am still amazed that the stock trans held for 3 full seasons and well over 600 passes and daily driven.
Give me the excuse to get the shep trans now :)

[0lmytsi]

Very nice! So the pt67 is working well now?

[evil~eagle]

Very nice! So the pt67 is working well now?

It's not a pt67 anymore, FP rebuilt the entire thing with there parts, only thing that was reused was the exhaust wheel/shaft. Compressor wheel is new and it now has a 360 screwed down type t4 bearing rather then the standard t3 bearing that was in it before from PTE. And now it is balanced correctly.

Not sure if it's doing 100% as of yet since I never did get a full blown pass yet. But so far so good. We will see when I get the new tranny.

[nukefission]

Good job. I was surprised to hear you were still on the stock trans.

On the QM clutch, you can use organic discs from PTT for the street. They are much easier on engagement and don't make as much noise as the semi-metallics.

Here is the incar video of when I broke my 3rd gear. The launch was fun as hell!

Nice car! I was wondering how long that tranny was going to last you. :)

[TheClaw]

3 words - fuckin sweet :)

[91TSiGuy]

Smilies count as words now? :confused:

[diambo4life]

That sucks...at least you can upgrade to something stronger now. Good Luck.

Classic! I love the way you took off and the windshield wiper came on. :D

evil eagle- you are my black evo from florida

[evil~eagle]

Took the tranny apart and found out it was the 3rd gear shift rail ear that broke on me. Everything else besides 3rd/4th gear syncros looked damn good. So I did the heavy duty 3/4 conversion, new 3rd gear, new 4th gear, new hub and slyder, new syncros, ect. Tranny is back in the car as of tonight after a long day of rebuilding the tranny and puting it back in.
So off to the tracks tomorrow (friday) to make some more passes. Tranny shifts like butta!! Alittle notchy in 3rd and 4th but I expected that as they are brand new, so they should loosen up alittle before too long.

I will post results when I get back from the tracks tomorrow. :D

[0lmytsi]

Nice....definitely get some more video footage for us!

[AL92]

Looking forward to your new exploits there evil!
You are my hero..!

Question for you. My 2.4 and FP3065 are all running now. Fighting problems first had bad new oem mits therm that kept sticking closed and now think from codes and way car is running have clogged cat.But getting new exhaust right away so no big deal.

question is about my tial 44 gate. I seem to get leaking noise coming from dump at idle.Is it normal for the gate to make that noise.Wasn't sure if its due to too much back pressure mabye from the stock exhuast and clogged cat or if don't have it seated right like tial guy is saying.
I was thinking to run pipe out to back of car anyway with small muffler or tig connection to my apexi gt downpipe that plan on getting.

Other than that I really love my current combo.The 2.4 and the FP3065 go together like bread and butter.

[TEC]

It should not leak at all. Make sure the valve end is making contact with the opening and that the spring is not broken.

[AL92]

Tec sorry not totally clear.You have to use the flange that goes over the valve correct .that flange makes it a bitch to try to get vband over the gate. I don't think the valve flange will go comletely into the gate it seems to stick out and fit in the female end of the turbo exhaust housing.
Not sure what I am doing wrong the clamp seems to have closed and the gate spins like though it would.So it should have nothing at all out the tube at idle?I thought the leaking at idle was one reason guys ran it to back of car?

[blue_gsx]

good video,good luck with the new clutch next time
