Congrats Kevin! That 1.9 60' is solid, maybe shifting much later will yield a higher trap speed, and faster time!

DM, we tune our cars to redline at 7800, although on an N/A set up you really don't "make" more power after your factory redline, however this higher redline will put you in a sweeter spot/powerband for your next gear

RandyD · 03-25-2013, 08:18 AM

Talk about that!

It's your money, feel free to waste it however you like.

eastwest2300 · 03-25-2013, 08:31 AM

I'd rather have a 19 row one than not..

chieuxuan · 03-25-2013, 08:35 AM

D, if you don't drive your car hard, don't waste that money dude, I planned to take mine to the track that was why I installed the very first mod on the Z with 33.5 rows oil cooler.

For what purpose? To add another point of failure in return for no benefit given how you drive?

actually launched at 1500-1600 that time which is why I'm thinking I could launch effectively at 2000-2500 and shift later. It'll take me a few more times to get the shift points better I'm sure so a few more trips to the track should help. t'was fun though.

Different style. No oil flows out and about in the 2013 system.

I'll go with you next time. Was it windy at the track?

Also if you're spinning too much out of the hole (with your higher launch) we can also play around with the tire pressures
