Hey guys, I'm sure some of you have been following my car on the "other" forum lol, but I thought I'd do a post here to. I've been so busy posting replies and answering emails and pm about my car I havent had a chance to post it here yet.



So anyway, here is how its going so far.



Mods are all the bolt ons, with 850/1200 and a Walbro with the new BNR stage 3 twins. I'm running a BNR streetported engine, PFC, and 18psi on all pump gas for the dyno and track.



I'm running conservative timing, and I'm real rich on the bottom end. I've got prob another safe 20rwhp in my tuning.



Here is the dyno.....

Here is my timeslip with the same tuning and boost as the dyno.



Dont pay any attention to my ET cause I didnt even do a burn out. I'm running the stock rear end and did launch the car at all, I left the line like I was towing a trailer haha.....and had bad spin when the boost hit in 1st and 2nd. I was just looking for a mph that would back up my dyno charts.....which this mph does...and then some lol



My run was also with a totally full tank of gas, sub, spare wheel/jack, ect ect ect....about 150lbs of extra weight. With that 150lbs out of the car, a nice long burn out on drag radials, and a hard launch I should pick up another couple mph which would put me right around 127. Plus I've still got the other 10-20rwhp in tuning to do!!!!



THIS IS ON STRAIGHT PUMP GAS........

I know a lot of people have been wondering and looking at the different upgraded twins so I'm just letting everyone know how the BNR's are working out for me.



Basically they will make enough power on pump gas for a 10second car easy....and for $2000 :bigok:



Later,

STEPHEN

Well, I've had some help from a few people, I started out with a base map from BadDog but it was way off for my mods. Steve Kan came thru B'ham a month ago so I had him tune on it and get it where it is now....I figured I had a expert coming thru I should take advantage of it lol



I'll be doing all the tuning from here on out. There is NO decent tuners in Al. I can give you some pointers or maybe look over your map and make suggestions if you'd like. Just kinda see if anything bad jumps out at me.

Sounds cool, Im going to call up Phil and see if I can stay there for the night. I only know ONE other guy with a 3rd gen and he is about 1 mile from my house and is 50ish.. cool guy. He might come.. haha



Steve is coming back in a month or to, thats when I am. I need all the pointers I can get. What ECU are you going to running? I have the PFC.

I just want everyone to know in case they don't already, if you're not sure if you want these or anything from BNR just talk to bryan for a little while, over a span of three days i talked to him a lot on AOL and he's definitely a cool guy i talked over just about everything i could think about with him and he's easy to talk to, plus his products are great.



As i think a few people here know I'm planning on buying an FD with a blown motor and then sending the engine and turbos out to BNR to get a streetport, and the Stage 3's, planning on making the car fast as possible while keeping the pretty stock look. You definitely cant beat the prices either, lol



anywho thats just my take on it, i dont actually have the stuff yet though
