next weekend looks really good weather wise! I'm open for either of the tracks! byron was far as hell, but had the sweetest track. GLD has free racing, and indiana, well I'd love to visit that state again.

so many choices............ but I'm down for whatever.

hmmm..... the wet tires must have been causing those high 1/4's and High mph. I would run a 15.0 but at 95.5mph, a 14.8 but at 96.6mph, a 14.7 but at 97.1mph. Hopefully mid-low 14's are hiding in there somewhere. if not then apexi, or comptech exhaust might help they come out of hiding .
Yea....Next time, dont get your tires wet and go around the burnout box. Get lined up and spin the tires real quick to get the gravel/dirt off the tires, then stage. Your car had mid 14s in it if you could launch it. Also, learn how to flash the torque converter when launching.

My brother said you gave him one of the better runs. Not bad for a Auto Maxima He was also getting hihg 60' times. I ran his car a couple times and ran a best of 14.91@95 with a 2.37X 60'. It seems like autos were having a tough time hooking up. I had made quite a few high 14s passes, but my SES light lit up. My car is running like crap.

As for the Evo:
My friend neal posted
"Anyhow I talked to the guy with the Evo and he said it had boost controller set at 20psi, exhaust, and intake. Stock boost is a spike to 19psi then it settles down to 16psi. The car still had temp tags on it."

I know, I saw them, and was like day-um! ol' boy just dropped straight from the dealership! then he ran a 12.6, and I thought it was stock, so I was in shock!

Hey can someone post a dyno of a cl-s auto with CAI. I'm curious to see the difference. Maybe it's like how Nissan underrates the Altima vs the Maxima even though they run about the same.

so say the accord starts with 250 hp, and the CL-S has 260

but then torqueaholic's car has the intake, which gives 15hp at the dyno, which is almost 20hp at the crank.

so that means his accord is running almost 270 hp!!!

LOL. who told you premium gasoline adds 10hp?
