well today i had a blast...all three of us showed..... http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/mad.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/mad.gif ...oh well i feel we did a good job of representing da tacos.....i was kinda disappointed today cuz in the morning i ran on da donuts and had mad traction problems...but this was the outcome......
.918
2.505
6.534
9.715 1/8th
79.02 MPH
12.41
14.676 1/4
100.24 MPH
Great MPH but tires sucked....10psi
all runs today was at 10psi

Then truck started dieing off top end.....
.938
2.112
5.923
9.077
77.70
11.863
14.348
87.55
This run was drag radials and 10PSI(look at the low MPH top end trouble....

Then last
1.023
2.064
5.945
9.089
78.68
11.823
14.103
97.06
I had fun but was mad because the 14.3 run was goin for a 13's but i later found ot when i got home i had the original plugs in (oldies) and two of them fouled by the end of the day.....so I am gonna guarantee 13's next track i go race at....need some minor dyno time and illbe goin or low 13's.....we will see.......low 13's or bust.....(coming soon 13's) http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif My new manifold is in the making which should add a few ponies and dyno time is soon too which should add quite a few ponies.....thanx gary and mike and danny for showin i had a blast.....well no gary or DXR yet so ill say something...he ran very well today and finally was chirping second gear by the end of the day..he was havin mad rich probems and MLF1 and I let him try the8:1 kit and 6:1 kit and his times got better and better...not sure of his best time but i think we figured the 4:1 would work best for him....well their it is fontana..kinda wish more would show but maybe next time... http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

Here's my best run:

.724
2.508
6.640
9.991 1/8
73.03 mph
12.914
15.37 1/4
92.09 mph

This run was made using Jerry's 6:1 kit on my stock 15s in the rear and 18s up front. As you can tell from the 60ft. time its not hooking up off the line. Also having a auto tranny doesn't help either. Time to invest on some drag radials!!!!

I would like to give a BIG thanks to Jerry and Mike for lending me their FMU kits. http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif Without their help i would still be figuring out why my ETs suck http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/confused.gif

Here's my Best Run:

1.111
2.815
7.731
11.702 1/8
62.81
15.062
17.903 1/4
79.43 MPH

I had a great time. The three of us that represented, represented will, we had fun. Next time I'm sure Jerry &amp; Gary, as well as myself will have lower 1/4's as we've all got little things that we're working on to make our trucks faster.... Hope to see more of you guys/girls out there next time...

I'm glad to see you guys had a fun time, I was planning on coming up for a couple hours but got caught up. I'll be there next time for sure! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

We'll see how fast yours is next time Andy! We all had a great time...

Damn fellas, awesome times! I'll be there next time for sure since I didn't show up to TWO events yesterday. http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/crazy.gif

My Friday night was a bit too wild to be anywhere near coherent on Saturday. I was supposed to take the Beast in for a smog check but I was unable to move let alone drive. D'oh.

Those are some good times jerry and dx-r, wish I was there to represent. But looking at those times makes me kinda nervous, don't want to be embarrassed with my slow ass truck. Its also a stock raised truck now, selling my 18" for $700 if anyone interested there konig imagines 7 1/2 up front 8 1/2 in the rears 50% of tread life left on the tires. Aye, jerry are you still using your stock injectors???

stock injectors bro but soon soon ill get my new ones back in.....workin on some stuff to get my times way down......traction is one of them.....but im happy i broke one of my goals was the 100 MPH mark....now 13's is next......then time for some new goals....man turbotaco dont talk like that your sh it is fast bro im the nervous one....you hauled ass in palmdale so fontana you should run 3 tenths faster then me...cuz you ran 3 tenths faster in palmdale.....well show to next fontana and we can all grudge.....it was fun.....

nice time guys!!!!!!!!

Awsome times everybody.

From your experiance with the different fmu kits.... Do you think that my 10:1 may be too much? Should i run without it or get a 4:1 or 6:1?

Thanks,
Dan http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif

how much boost you runnin??? Any how i think that the 4:1 is the best one.....he ran his best with the 6:1 and i think he is gonna go with the 4:! ...have you looked at your air/fuel ratios??? im pretty sure rich is good but too rich will hurt....try the 4:1 i think i will be best....

On day to day driving I'm running @ 8lbs, at the track more @ 11-12psi...
What will it harm if i run 10:1 for too long? I would guess the fuel pump may go out, while pumping and trying keep up. And it may burn out the o2 sensor. Am I right?? or wrong??
I have looked at my a/f ratio... right now its acting kinda funny. I have Digital gauges from www.DynoTune.org... (http://www.DynoTune.org...) at idle and cruise it's at .000 or -.170 (thats right negative) and at WOT it's at .900 range. If I reset the ecu it's around .200 to .500 at cruise and idle.

DynoTune
meter
reading--------Air/Fuel Ratio
.000mv------17.0:1
.100mv------17.0:1
.200mv------16.0:1
.300mv------15.5:1
.400mv------15.0:1
.500mv------14.7:1
.600mv------14.6:1 Dangerously lean
.700mv------14.5:1 Getting Lean
.800mv------14.2:1 Max power (Lean) normally aspirated
.875mv------13.5:1 Max power normally aspirated
.900mv------13.2:1 Max power (Rich) (NOS, Blower, Turbo)
1.000v-------12.5:1 Very rich

DynoTune.org, "This will allow you to tune for wide open throttle or cruise. You can use it to tune for cruise as well but it takes some practice reading the display. With a perfect 14.7 to 1 A/F ratio the display will cycle up and down example Case #1 “ .800 .300 .750 .250 .850 .200 etc…”

This is the perfect example of the perfect ratio. Now if you see this “ .900 .750 .800 .700 .900 etc….” this would tell you your running rich during cruise. If you see it run on the other end as follows “.300 .250 .400 .500 .375 etc….” Your running lean during cruise. You make adjustments to jets or fuel pressure to make sure the display cycles as in case #1.

Running wide open throttle should result in readings as follows “.900 .905 .908 .910 .911 .911 etc…” it should be very stable! No jumping around, rock solid…."

I wonder if my o2 sensor is not working. ........Again

With the 6:1 kit the truck felt like it pulls harder. Also with the 10:1 i noticed on some runs the turbo would max out at 7psi. with the 6:1 it stayed dead on at 10-11psi.

I just ordered the 4:1 kit and will report back if it makes a difference.

Why did it max out at 7psi and run better with the 6:1? I would assume the fuel pump couldn't keep up. http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/crazy.gif ???

well just to inform from my performace testing i produce better power if my truck hits 11.5 at WOT.....pulls harder that way.....i know its rich but thats good...do you have a EGT guage??? how bout some of those numbers...im gonna hook mine up this weekend......true reader to see what is melting...i just tested my copmpression yesterday and suprisingly after 170000 miles and hard miles ill add i have 180...180...183...176... beautiful...so now it is time to tune more but im gonna run on the dyno...

Idle and cruise: 550deg.Celsius or 1022deg.F
WOT: 850-900 range or 1562+deg.F
At the track: I've seen temp as high as 1020deg Celsius. Dangerous!!!

DynoTune,"Typical readings of 600-700C for a performance engine at full throttle."

what is that last line...those are the EGT's and what they should be at WOT????

yes, according to DynoTune.

Either the 255lph pump couldn't keep up or the 10:1 fmu dumped too much fuel into the cylinders causing it to hesitate and bog http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif .

Oh http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif , I didn't think about that. could have gotten too much fuel. or loaded the injector beyond the duty cycle.
