1/4 Mile Times

If the power is dropping off as the boost increases, that suggests to me you've got spark blow-out. - I've had that problem when the plugs were gapped too small, but it's an easy and cheap fix to regap them.

Which plugs are you running? I'm a convert to getting rid of the precious metal tips and going back to "standard" copper plugs.

I've got the NGK copper tip ones. Only fitted them 2000 miles ago.

What ECU set up should I go with when i ditch the Mines? Looking for 350 bhp ultimately. What about tyres? I got Syron Race 1s at the moment

Nistune? At least you can change the map on that to suit your car.

Syvecs/Motec/etc if you've got the budget for it?

What's your plug code?

Nistune sounds good for my budget. What about Nismotronic? Are they comparable to Nistune in terms of costs?

What's your plug code?

BR8ES.

BCR8ES? - It's possible the BR8ES fits, but I thought it was wider (20mm rather than 14mm).

I don't know anything about Nismotronic other than it's essentially an embedded PC that emulates an ECU. My concern is (was) that if the battery goes flat it loses everything in the volatile memory and forgets about pretending to be an ECU (like the way you lose the CMOS settings if your motherboard battery goes flat).

 

[Realutionist]

Sorry, yes BCR8ES

Nice to see my video with Kierons commentary of Channys legendary 16 sec 1/4 hasn't been forgotten about :lol:

This was the last time mine saw a drag strip

11.9 with 230kw. Just done a new turbo and manifold upgrade with a few extra bits now making 300kw dyno tuned at 20psi but haven't taken her down yet

 

[Fast Guy]

230Kw at wheels or flywheel?

 

[gt1r]

At the wheels
