only trapping 85 at 8psi on a t3, something doesn't seem right....

yep, and dynoed @ 163whp????? something is def wrong here...

 

[mp5jeff]

might want to check the engine compression or something....my car traps over 100 at 7psi...and that's on drag radials..

 

[Metal MP5]

you might wana work on your launch. I'm sure you can do a good 0.4 or 0.5 better if you lower your 60' to 2.300 or 2.250 .... i think i ran a 15.4 with a 2.235 60' back when i was stock. And stock MSPs have like 145whp ? I guess maybe the heat also affects your speed uh ?

 

[BlkZoomZoom]

am I supposed to add the non-msps???

I think he forgot to push the pedal ALL the way down.

 

[mp5jeff]

lol blk, that explains it!, but still doesn't explain his horrible dyno #, although im the last person to believe in dyno #s but that track time is pretty bad and seems to match that dyno...

 

[BlkZoomZoom]

I'm pretty sure you would get better than 84mph with 163hp........ I mean I'm stock and I've run 106-107.......

 

[Metal MP5]

I mean I'm stock and I've run 106-107.......

lol

 

[mp5jeff]

yea true, there has to be something wrong with his car, some of the n/a p5s on here have better times/traps with less hp...

 

[Focus]

Well the track was really cold tonight. On the original Bridgestone's I only managed to pull off a 14.0 @ 104.

2nd. gear launches rule on the stock tires.....2 weeks ago I managed a 13.67 w/ a 2.21 60'

 

[mp5jeff]

ive tried 2nd gear launches while back on street tires, didn't seem to work as well for me...

 

[1FASTMP5]

2nd. gear launches rule on the stock tires.....2 weeks ago I managed a 13.67 w/ a 2.21 60'

THAT is the only thing i never did in the p5. ive always heard trying 2nd gear launches somtimes works out good for drag.... hmmmmm, maybe i will try it in the srt-4 this next track day?

 

[mp5jeff]

just plan on slipping the clutch , try just lowering tire pressure and do 1st gear launch if you are getting 2.2 or better on street tire no need to try 2nd gear starts, you most likely won't do better then that
