well, last day of test and tune and decided to take the car out to see what it would run. i really only wanted to see what the mph would be because it shows exactly what kind of power the car is making.
car is a 1990 jetta sedan with an alh 90 swap with a chip and injectors and NO intercooler At the moment, and a clutch that barley holds
anywho i ran a 15.6 @91.24 with a 2.5 60ft... did a small burnout and pedaled it thru all of first and 2nd. i'd rather spin then hop, hence the junk 60ft's. i could not believe how bad the wheelspin was at the track! even worse then on the street! at the track, i burn 1st hard, roast 2nd like crazy then chirp 3rd if i'm lucky . other then that it would spin 1/2 of 3rd then grip. on the street if i roll into it in 2nd at about 25-30 i roast em to the end of 2nd (dunno the mph because it goes by so fast).
it was a pretty cold night but i could really feel the car start to slow down once i was going into 4th due to the heatsoak. i think if i hook up the intercooler, get a new clutch, a better tune then this junk upsolute tune, i think i could really get the mph up to atleast 94-96+
once again, mods are
pp502's (pp764's)
upsolute stg2 tune
straight pipe from turbo back (2.25)
no intercooler
also, put the car on the scale at lebanon valley and weighed in with me (182lbs) at 2330.... seems a bit light but who knows.
i'll be back for the next season gunning for atleast 95 mph.
