Official 0-60 & 1/4 mile thread

[joschneider]

There is no way my rwd is gonna get that low. But I will try haha

You totally can. With proper DRs and 18 inch rims...maybe

Ya it might be possible. I didn’t think da would help the 0-60 much but I just did this real quick and didn’t even try to do a burn out before hand
Edit- totally thought you said da not drag radials

Proper DA in Vegas doesn’t exist but just drive to Baker or something to do a couple runs, altitude cut in half

I gotta say, that's pretty sweet. Into the 3s if you use the car magazine standard!

What was your technique for this one?

Similar technique, mine is still cutting power if I build boost in manual mode, so I start in auto mode. This time I am shifting a tiny bit earlier from 1st to 2nd. Also, no passenger (but my tank was almost full, whereas before it was about 1/4). I switched to Map 2, as well, but the difference is hardly noticeable.

I know I can get it into the high 4.1's as is. I think @Beefer has the right technique, that is, shift early from 1st to 2nd, then let it auto shift from 2nd to 3rd. There is a fair difference in gear ratios between 2 and 3, so you want to ride 2nd as long as you can.

I have a feeling this post is the beginning of a very friendly war...
...And the first shots have been fired

So my celebration was short lived. Xot1 on the Stinger forum had his buddy who owns a G70 post his best time, and he crushed me...!! Haha.




He's using WMI, so he's got the edge! But, with a flash tune and a shiny new Mishimoto intercooler I can totally take him down!

I have my intercooler on the way. At least I ordered it over the weekend lmao. But you could take the top spot back just by going back to octane booster and map 3. That’s what I just ran for my 4.43.

@joschneider don’t tempt me to get on google earth and look for a road out there. I’ll do it for sure . But I have actually found some 245 drag radials for an 18” wheels. Just gotta decide how determined I am lol

 

[CoconutRob]

It’s called a Dragy

Dragy is the name brand and all draft's are the same?

Okay. Worth a shot, then. Remind me what octane do I need for Map 5...? I'm down to pour a whole bottle of boostane to get #1 again. Haha.

 

[tarhoosier]

Is this the thread where people ask how to coast?

 

[Vortex951]

I’d say just get your map3 with the 8 ounces of booster and see how that does cause beef was getting sub 4 so you should as well

 

[Toddasaurus]

Now it's serious. Just ordered some boostane. Also, totally gonna take out the childseats for maximum weight savings. Lol. Next week it's gonna be on! Haha

Well in that case I’m taking out the spare tire when I go to the speedway

 

[Beefer]

Ok...get BOOSTane Pro...not regular.

Here’s the mix chart. I do 1/2 ounce to 1 gallon of good 93...gets you to 99. It says 0.43... I round up. But you can see how much more you need for 100 octane. Not worth it.

Stick to Map 3 for now. Map 5 needs higher for full affect.

You MUST drive around calmly for 30 minutes to let the tank mix and the ECU to learn/adjust...NO cheating!!!

 

[Slip_Angle]

This is getting fun! I just want to say.. So much for the fragile transmission theory. So many people have tons of 0-60 and 1/4 mile runs with no issues...

Ya I think I have well over 100 0-60 runs just since I got my draggy

Tell me about mixing e85 for using Map 5 (ie how many gallons of e85 to premium gasoline). I found one ethanol gas station downtown. I'm gonna go all out.

I like to get down to under 1/4 tank. 1/8 preferred. Then I add 5 gallons of e85. Then my 8 ounces of octane booster. Top the rest off with 91. If you have 93 I’d use that over 91. Every little bit helps Then drive around in sport mode not just so the gas mixes but you need to get that mixture into the fuel system as well. I’ll usually drive home which is about 20-30 min then drop the hammer and she pulls like a train.

 

[Vortex951]

I did get a reply about the bms CPI kit. Supposedly it will be up on the website this week. Might order it so I can run e60 instead of e30 haha

 

[Beefer]

^ stay clear of 1/8 tank...ECU shuts down. 1/4 tank is key...or a bit less.

That’s when I go get my gas. Not when I try to run it. I’m a goon I always run on near full tanks lol . Like the 4.43 I just got today was a full tank as well I just like to get my tank as empty as possible so I don’t have to guess how much e85 to put in to keep an e30 mixture

 

[Vortex951]

Get the top spot back for us @Toddasaurus We believe in you!!!!!!
