I only did two runs because they were virtually identical, so I saw no point in doing more runs for the same times...

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . stock . . . . . . Stage 3 . . . . 3+ TP and Forge WG
60' . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.019. . . . . . .1.9673 . . . . . . . .1.858
1/8 mile ET . . . . . . . .8.835 . . . . . . 8.417 . . . . . . . . .8.126
1/8 mile MPH . . . . . . .78.91. . . . . . .84.60 . . . . . . . . 87.04
1/4 mile ET . . . . . . . .13.763 . . . . . 13.037 . . . . . . . .12.597
1/4 mile MPH . . . . . . .101.10 . . . . . 106.86 . . . . . . . 111.10

From this we can see that between stock and Buschur Racing stage three I gained 5.69 mph in the 1/8 mile, and gained less than another 1/10 of a mph (.07 mph) in the second half of the track!

Between Buschur Stage 3 and now (addition of Test pipe and forge WG actuator) I gained another 2.44 mph in the 1/8 mile, and an additional 1.8 mph in the second half of the track.

I am surprised by how much my 60' time improved... I am guessing that the TC-SST is launching better now that it has 4000 miles on it than it did with 500 miles on it. Either that or the fact that it was daylight with sunshine heating up the pavment improved traction enough for the improved 60' time. Air temps were the same this time as they were my last time at the track, 60 F.

Later,

Keith

Can you post some time slips please. A guy at work with a new Shelby GT 500 doesnt believe the MR could be faster than his. He keeps saying it didnt happen without a slips. The GT 500 barely breaks 13.0, so he is in disbelief since he paid so much for his car.

I need to install my lower IC pipe, and Turbo outlet elbow (used to be O2 housing area on older EVO's) eliminator downpipe. Then after one more trip to the drag strip it will be time to put on the snow tires and high flow catalytic converter for the winter.

Next spring I will do cams and a bolt on turbo, and perhaps a header.

Not sure what a time slip proves, if I was full of crap I would claim 11.5's at 123 and post up time slips from my 2005 EVO RS!

IIn any case, I will scan in the best stock, stage 3, and current time slips and post them up.

My new scanner is a pain in the @ss so I only have the new personal best scanned in.

How is the SST holding up the power so far? any slippage or safe mode what you encouter? I suppose you have made well over 50wtq gains which I thought the factory transmission ecu would start intervening but closing to half throttle at low to mid rpm range.

I've got an MR and I'm interested in knowing if you've had any problems and if you have gone back to the dealer at all for service/warranty work.
