you only made a 14.5 with 320 hp :eek: damn! (no offense)

Is that about average considering the traction on gst's?
No, it's not average. You have to consider the following excuses:

1. Stock Suspension
2. Crappy tires
3. 2.7 60'
3. Shitty driver

I have all of the above. However, I have now taken care of #2. I could really improve if I got more time at the track. I used to cut 2.3 60's when it was close to stock. Not great, but not horrible either.
 
Check out his trap speed though!!! 110! Too bad you can't launch that bitch or you'd be smokin!

I'm sure that with all those mods, fuel consumption is not a priority. But I'm curious what your mileage is? When I do my 'build' I'd like to get reasonable mileage.....it will be a daily driver.

Thanks
 
Actually, just a few months back I checked my gas mileage and I got 25 mpg, and that's pretty much city driving, no highway. I was pretty impressed. Remember, that's why turbo car's are so great...gas mileage is still great unless you are always on the positive side of boost gauge. :)

Well I finally got the car put together.

Mods now include Frank3, external gate dumped, FMIC, DSMLinkV2 and 650cc injectors.

After setting global fuel adjustment to -31% , I logged a few runs at 16-17psi.

The car feels nuts. Calculated A/F is 10.5 accrosst the board. Timing is 8 degrees when I go WOT finishing at 17degrees at 7K rpm and is nice and smooth.

O2 are a steady .92 right accross and knock retard is 0.4% max.

I can't imagine what it will feel like leaned out to 11.5A/F and a few more degrees of timing.

I got to 100mph in 3rd in no time.
