cams and a new tune...

WHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT.......you got cams now to. Man that thing already was a beast and now its just insane. I'm still waiting for Chris to email me back about my hitech stageII and LT header install. If you don't mind me asking how much did the install+ tune cost?

Ya, Dave(Juiced46 on the lmmc board) did the install and Chris really worked on the tranny shifts and he raised the redline and shift points..When did you email Chris? As far as cost, well, alot less than it should have been..:D
Sorry, steedman07, you're right. Back on topic, I've been eyeing blower cams for my car (likely NSR style), but am worried about smog testing (I live in a very urban area that tests religiously). 32 rwhp from your cams is very solid! With your supercharger, that's likely one quick car at the track! If you run 11's, I know cams will be my next mod.


LOL, no problem, I was laughing when I was typing it..If I dont get into the 11's this spring, im going to burn it..I need a stall converter and some Dr's and I should get there...

A few weeks back. I know his Grandma passed away so I understand him not getting back to me yet. All I know is those are the guys that I want to install and tune my car. I also want Chris to do the J-Mod and install a shift kit on my car if he can. I WANTTTT A RIDEEEEE IN YOUR CARRRRR (when the weather warms up). I will bring the video camera and digital SLR to take some pics.

Sounds great man, ..It was his grandfather taht passed, and ya he just got back..Try him again tommorow, and tell him Billy sent ya!!!
 
My car is spot on for trap speed considering the rwhp & weight of my car. If you were to search the forums about a year ago when I was predicting what my car was going to run with the new blower, you'll find that based on weight and rwhp I was predicting the car would run 12.30's @ 111 mph, and that is right where I ended up once I finally got to our local dragstrips to verify.

My car (with me in it) weighs 3,650 lbs. Here is how much rwhp is required for a 3,650 lb car to hit various trap speeds, based on solid math.....

  • 105 mph requires 290 rwhp
  • 106 mph requires 300 rwhp
  • 107 mph requires 308 rwhp
  • 108 mph requires 317 rwhp
  • 109 mph requires 325 rwhp
  • 110 mph requires 334 rwhp
  • 111 mph requires 344 rwhp
  • 112 mph requires 353 rwhp
  • 113 mph requires 362 rwhp
  • 114 mph requires 372 rwhp
  • 115 mph requires 382 rwhp

My car trapped just shy of 112 mph (111.93) and put down 351 rwhp on a Mustang Dyno, so I not only have the dyno sheet, but timeslips to back it up.

91frppgt, if your car makes truly makes just 252 rwhp and traps at 108 mph, then it would have to weigh just under 3,000 lbs. Or, the dyno you used grossly underestimated your car's rwhp (which is my gut feeling here). Or, as you mentioned, track altitude may have something to do with it. Our local track is 250' above sea level, but its Density Altitude is often 1000-2000' above sea level. Maybe your 108 mph trap speeds were done at sea level (or Density Altitudes well below sea level on a cold day with a high barometer reading).




357 dynojet and I trap 114.32.... go figure!!:shrug:
