i was at the track today just for fun. i ran a 17.2 also heres a couple pics of my exhause

 

I ran a 16.2 in a almost stock DA 2 weeks ago....

The track is addicting im going again this week but im taking my TL

 

You sure you went WOT?

 

17.2? wtf is wrong with your car? never heard or seen anyone run that high. what did u take out of the car, or what extra weight did u have in the car?

 

17s sounds kinda high for our cars. i would expect those times from a civic or corolla.

 

17 is very high. my TL-P i got into the mid/low 15s every time with a 14.9 a couple.

 

u take out ur subs? thats way to high

 

17.2 WTF?

i thought i was running slow at 15.5 stock
good job on tracking though.. it is addicting

 

I need to find a track here...

 

i had nothing in my car. i ran 17.4 last year to iono whats wrong. i tried seafoam. i changed the oil. i changed tranny fluid. iono why my car ran 17.5.

 

that really is wierd.

i have a 99 FPR bone stock interals.. ran a 15.38 at its fastest if i remember.

even when i used brake torquing or just slammed the gas.. it was only a tenth or two off.. and thats with a good bit of wheel spin too.


maybe your tb isnt opening all the way when you going WOT... maybe the cable has slack?

 

17's is for sure very high. there are other bone stock cars that will run 16's... you shoud drive another tl comparable to yours to feel the difference.

 

yea i was going to say there is no the 91 integra almost stock can beat a TL and like I said I ran a 16.2

something is up....

 

Man have your car checked, cuz now everybody'S gonna think the TL is weak.

Full auto or SS ?

 

SS is for curvy roads.. more then likely lose a few tenths... leave the 1/4 mile to the auto... shifts when its supposed to

 

Maybe you didnt drive it right? No offense Im just saying... my cuzn did 17s in my 5.0 I did 14.1.

 

gate shifting..

wat was your launching technique?

 

when i gate shift it it seem like i didnt have vtec. my launching tech was hold the brake and give it some gas. is there anything i do do to the motor like clean something or anything?

 

trying cleanin the egr port and so forth like in the DIYs

then give it a seafoam.. spark plugs ok?

PSI on tires...

suspension shocks ok? cuz that matters in launching.. motor mounts??

 

i did the egr port cleaning like a year ago. i havent done the valve adjustments yet. i changed the spark plugs with the ngk iridiums about a year ago. i also seafoam when i did the egr. my psi was 35. and i got brand new shocks like a month or two ago. i got the illuminas with tiens s tech springs. i left the settings on the front at 1 and the rears at 3 and i have bad motor mounts and trans mounts

 

could be motor mounts..

idk... try putting in 38 PSI?

little things here and there... i dunno.. x_x

 

its more than tire pressure... there's something really wrong....

 

shifting wrong...

 

how could i shift wrong i left it in full auto. maybe i just need a new motor

 

red text = sarcasm.

 

haha^

 

ok lol

 

what was your MPH? 60ft time? Those will help explain some things...

 

what grade gas are you using ?

 

How heavy are you?

 

How would you not have vtec. Gate shifting will yield the fastest times. (when shifted just before the rev limiter)

 

i have those times at home ill post the times wen i get off school tonight

 

i only use 91

 

wen i weighted my car it was me and my girl and it came out to 3060 i think and my girl only weighs 100lbs and i weigh only 110

 

when i gate shifted it i got 17.4

 

here are my slips

 

Those 60's are horrible..lol. MPH should stick you somewhere in the mid-high 16's. did you roast the tires?

 

no i didnt.

 

hate to add insult to injury but there's a stock scion xB that ran a 16.4....... something is wrong if you can potentially lose to a scion.

 

i dont know whats wrong with my car man. i tried seafoam, bg44k, bg fuel injector cleaner, new oil, bg intake manifold cleaner. i dont know
