Dude... that's awesome that your coming out. I remember way back when your truck was denied because of the rubber... oh man... I wonder what times that thing would have pulled of.

It's nice to get a baseline on your Jetta... so you can compare times per each mod you perform on your Jetta! :)

See you out there... and Benny... bring me 40 bucks pls! LOL

Tech is to make sure that your car is safe and won't blow up on the track.

I was there AND I ran a 16.0 :)

Not bad for my first time in this Jetta!! That was stock, next week will be different!

As I was driving home (after Race City) I saw a ton of people on the road that I recognized from Secret Street... including you man! :)

I still can't get over how fast your bimmer is... with 18's and JUST an air-filter.

:drool: :drool:

I think you're supercharged or something! LOL

I want to get into the 13's. Would NOS do the trick?

Fluidic
08-24-2002, 02:29 AM
Probably would do it... talk with Roland (2000impreza) in regards to ZEX if your interested! :)

If you DO start to run 13's; you will be in SLK 32AMG county... and your not even supercharged....

BMW 4 EVA!!! LOL

Kenny beat a stock E46 M3 by about 0.2s down the 1/4 mile 2 weeks back (13.7 vs 13.9). So that gives you an idea of the power level you need to hit 13's.

Suppose to put out some impressive numbers. I know you have to send in your ECU to get reprogrammed though.

I was driving a white Rx-7 Turbo.. had some bad luck tonight..
first run of the evening was a 14.9@94mph ... Second run (and my best for the evening) was a [email protected] .. the 3rd run was when stupid things started happening.. upon launching, my stereo flew out of it's slot, messed up my shift into second.. then upon shifting into 3rd, I had my damn blow off valve blow off it's connector :( ... 15.1@89 ... the 4th and last run was the worst.. had a great launch.. noticed a slight bog when I got into 2nd, then lost all power in 3rd and basically coasted past the traps.. 16.8@77 ...this time the blow off valve blow off again and I also blew my turbo to manifold gasket (no boost :( ) ...

I was having some major traction problems all night long.. tires were down to 28psi and I wasn't launch high into the revs either.. THe kuhmo 712's I'm running just have no stick.. best 60" time I could muster was a 2.224 .. Oh well.. there's always next time..

08-24-2002, 11:10 AM
man. i can't believe a 330ci pretty much stock can run the high 14's.

going from 14's to 13's you need a LOT more than a weak shot of nitrous.

i was also wondering how full was everyone's gas tank. i was on full tank, full interior, spare tire and everything still in place. plus heavy ass 20lbs 17" rims on each corner.

So is your car stock or not?

16.0 isn't bad. What were your trap speeds?

Your best bang for the buck is going to be a UUC exhaust and a chip (conforti or something.) NOS does not work well in the new BMW's due to their insanely anal fuel managment system. You won't be happy with it(the computer takes a shit when you get off the juice and has a helluva time adjusting back to normal settings - ie you'll almost have to get out of the car and disconnect the battery for a minute just to get the car back to normal again.)


Personally if I had my car again I'd go with one of the packages from one of the european companies(Kelleners had a good kit last I checked.) Most of their kits include cams and ECU tuning.

OMOYYC
08-24-2002, 05:37 PM
My tank was 1/2 full, w/ spare tire, and 18's on each corner.

My ECU has been upgraded at the factory (or something like that), but nonetheless... still stock... just a harder working turbo thanks to the improved software mapping on my ECU thanks to the factory... or something along those lines.
