Quarter Mile Times Discussion

[jordak]

Your dyno sheet reflects the power curve when held in 4th and as such does not provide any meaningful info with respect to where the peak power is reached in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears.

If you did a dyno run in second gear for example it would look alot different to the one you have posted.

I'd probably be changing 1-2 @ 5400 ans 2-3 @ 5500.

What are your 60' times?

From memory 2.0 and 2.1

If I gun it from the traffic lights up to around 5400 I found it feels like it is losing power by then.. Could be just me though.

So when I get my edit in July @ HPF, I should ask for some printouts of peak power in each gear?

Bain, is your sedan stock.?

You have similar grunt to me (196)but I have the 6s auto. Im looking for this sort of time or better in a ute, and the cash is mine.

Was stock when I ran it. Now its got a 2nd cai and middle muffler swapped out to 2 hotdogs.

None of the above though would do squat at the wheels..

After looking at the dyno figures am I changing gears to late? Usually I would change at 5100 - 5200 rpm... Should I be changing at 5000rpm just after my peak kw or even sooner?

Change just after peak torque, forget peak power..

that's a great effort in a manual.

ran my xr6t on the weekend, for the first time, with its Nizpro kit,

the car has a stock auto, I have put the standed stall back in,

the car had a full fuel tank,

was running on 95 octane unleaded, (that's all we can get in Mackay NorthQueensland)

running on m/t street radials

track temp at time of run was 26Degrees 66% humidity

new pb 11.59 @120 mph 1.70 60 ft (must have streched the standed stall a bit)

I did run it up on a Dyno with this tune, but if you want, post what rwks, and NM you think it would have had to run that time and that mph,

I just thought it would be good to see peoples estimates,

I should just tell you I have kept a fair bit of power out of it under 4500, so that when I hit the next gear, it would not spray the gear box all over the track

and also because it is standed internals, so it did not squash the rods,

also the run was in 2nd gear,

I have to go until tomorow night, so guess away and I will see how close we can get.
