I used to; dont use boostane anymore. Turned the inside of my tailpipes orange, which was not intended. lol.

I have run map 7 on e30 blend (e85 and 93 octane), but I dont typically. Like the safety factor of a tad higher octane at those boost levels. I'm not a tuner, so that may be bs. The logs do show the car performs very, very well on this 93/e85 blend, though.

Cranked these out this am. My personal best I believe. Had to let off at the end of the 1/8, but et still pretty good.

Nice! Those numbers feed into 10.3s or 10.2s if you manage to combine them in one run.

Right on man. Pretty happy with these.

Remind me, please, what's your mod list?

Sure thing....weistec ecu file, tcu flash, remus catback, awe intakes, jb4

Yep, those are solid for sure!

I was able to hit a 6.62 at 107.5 mph with only the JB4 map 2 and BMS intakes. Can't repeat that though. The car was on fire that day. Did another run that was about the same. Now even with better DA and map 5 I can't touch those numbers...

That bested me by... 0.01s!

That said, I've orbited that 1/8th mile time ever since: 6.63, 6.65, 6.66 (), 6.77, etc. Not sure why you can't get back there.

With a bit more hardware, 6.5s dead is achievable (HockeyTyme).

Yea, some numbers are just meant to be...haha

I have a bunch of 6.53's and 6.54's at 109mph... But, I did one 6.50 at 110 and doubt I can touch it again. Funny thing is, that wasn't by best 60' on that run

Humidity is a problem for you I bet. Although temp is more important, humidity does factor in.

Interesting. Are you still able to hit that trap speed, or have ET and trap gone down?

This car is not easy from a repeatability perspective...I just ran a 7.1 @ 107.5, with a 1.95 60ft. lol

Everything has gone down. I had another post about it. I think boostane ruined my spark plugs? Getting them changed out tomorrow, so we'll know soon. All of my 60-130 runs are a half a second higher than before, with lower DA.

Yeah, the humidity is pretty high. But I'm doing WMI so there's a lot of water going in anyways haha. Those numbers are crazy. Your car is a freak.

Ah. I did see that thread. Fingers crossed plugs will get you going fast again.

Went out to do some runs this morning. First run I lowered the boost too much for 1st gear.



Second run got a better launch, but for some reason the car just shut down going into 5th gear. Terry said it's because the ECU was requesting less boost, but I thought map 5 was absolute not additive?




I think I need better tires and a backend flash to keep the boost even. The 1/8th mile times were about the same as FloridaM5 but the speed was 5mph higher. So it seems like there's a lot of room for improvement on the launch.

great to see you going fast again man. and killer runs. that run you're talking about i had to let off, hence the dip in speed on the graph. I trap 107-108 in 1/8 mile. if you want to get faster, might have to strip some weight....but you're already one of the fastest out there!

Wow, what can I say but NIIIIICE!!! Great times. DA wasn't horrible--I'd guess that's about your average DA for the area.

Your 60ft is just OK; I've managed a 1.57 and I hit 1.60 dead frequently. What's your wheel/tire setup? You've got another 0.7 or so in there assuming you can put it all together.

The behavior when it hit 5th is very odd--I've not seen that myself. Hockeytyme logged quite a bit when he first started this and may have hit something similar. Terry helped with a few custom maps that ultimately addressed issues that, I believe, Terry then rolled into the latest released firmware. I don't know whether HT shared your issue or not but continuing to work with Terry would be my advice before you consider alternate solutions.

Is your JB4 firmware up-to-date?

What fuel and map were you using? MS109 or equiv and map 5, right? Perhaps you mentioned you're running an ethanol blend--I'm reading too many posts; can't keep all these online handles in my head.

Anyhoo--great job; phenomenal times! I PM'd you my email per our discussion. I'll reach out to HockeyTyme and try and setup a 3-way (let's not be juvenile now shoei… or Vic55 for that matter) call to see if we can get you a workable map 6.

Great runs!!! yes, my car when it shifts into 5th gear has no jump. It completely lags for a few seconds. I only noticed this when I pushed my car for more boost and trying to get great run. On map2 or map3 with ms109 or 100oct I have no issues. But, when I go map6 and turn it up I noticed the same thing in 5th gear. Unfortunately I never log my 1/4 mile runs because I need to keep my bluetooth to hear dragy over the speakers. Thus, I had nothing to show Terry to ask why it's doing that. But, that could be the difference in getting into the 9's... That and well your DA hahah

Thanks. DA was pretty good, it gets up to about 500 during the day. I get out at sun rise when its 32-35 degrees with no traffic.

Running stock tires and the 38lb non-comp wheels. Going to some lighter wheels with PS4Ss would help a lot I'm sure. I want to trade the car out for an M8 or 570s next year though, so I don't know if I feel like dropping the money on wheels and tires. I'm pretty sure M8's will be breaking into the 9's with a JB4 and good conditions.

I'm on the latest firmware. Terry looked at the logs and just replied "Yes the factory flash lowered it's target, so the JB4 also produces less boost there." I feel like an absolute boost target of 25 should mean that the boost target is 25 regardless of what the ECU says.

I'm running e50 now with meth injection. Fuel trims look good.

Sounds good! Thanks again.

Maybe it's a sign we need flashes. The first run it didn't do it, kept pulling in 5th and the trap speed was 2mph better. Now that I look at the logs for that run though, it did fall off, but not as quickly. Started 3rd gear at 25, ended at 20, went back to 25 at the start of 5th, then dropped down to 20 by the end of it. If yours is doing the same, and a backend flash would let it keep 25 all the way, you'd probably hit 9's.

Can you offer an informed guess as to whether the 5th gear issue is map 6 specific or the result of much higher boost targets?

Odd that it doesn't do it in lower maps.

Ahh ok, now I remember seeing that dip at the end of your run.
