SPAZ,

I ran a 14.3 with my 2 stage n2o and wai and borla exhaust and no hood.

since then i have run high 8's in the 8th with a max ported stock maf and iat override, single side ported throttle body with bypass, cai and a few other small things.

now i have a fully ported throttle body both sides and intake plenum.....maf is thin as can be....... and i will have my dhp pcm sometime this week!!!!

i wish you were in texas...i would love to juice ya!!!

i think i should be running mid 13's with all this? my 8th should be 8.5's or 8.3's???!!! 60 Foot times have always been 2.0's

next project......heads, headers, and p & p lower intake and pistons (if i can find them).

by the way...since i've ported the TB my EGR sensor has been causing my SES light to come on....if i give you the codes ...can you diagnose the problem..... my idle is about 600 rpm's too high now at idle and in gear i have tohold the brake to prevent the car from moving at 20 mph...without touching the gas! should i check the egr???

Gotta love guys that take off their hood to get a few extra HP... anyone else see that really popular thread where they butchered a ricer to make it really fast?

My car might be slower than yours, but it looks good too! I just hope that's your race car, and that you actually drive something else day to day.

Nothing you said about the ported TB made much sense, but that shouldn't have anything to do with the EGR because the EGR is hooked to the manifold. If I had to make a guess, since you're idling to high and throwing codes, I'd say you screwed up something with the idle air control valve on the TB or with your MAF. You never want to port your MAF sensor or it will have a fit, and just porting the TB won't do anything (good that is). You need a bored TB with a bigger throttle plate. Best to leave that to the pros. Also, why would you use the IAT over-ride mod if you're running a big shot of nitrous? That increases the advance of ignition timing which is not very safe with NOS. Not trying to be hard on you here, but it sounds like you're trying very hard to blow up your engine.

FOURTENN3GT ... You need to start a seperate thread to solve those issues...

Sounds like you are working the way we all thought best in the beginning. Those mods have been done and results found, Aaron knows what's up. With our PCMs/sensors porting, boring, etc. is not always logical. See the light, feel the performance.

I know, talk later,
Pat

disconnected the battery last night.... the light is out!
i took a hammer and flattened my TB plate out a little ...then put it back in....seems to have made the gap smaller and the idle did go down 500 rps....i now sits at 1000 rpm ...

so far the egr SES light has not come back on....
idle did not go wrong till i worked on tb......i thought it was aluminum particles.....sprayed intake cleaner and repaired gap on tb...seems to have fixed it...

the code must have been from the extra air at idle and it must of made more gas build up and jacked with the egr??

great thing about the iat override is that when you have a full bottle....you can take it off!!! i am not that mechanically un-inclined! i know better than to spray with an iat override....but if you think about it...running richer would prevent detonation..less air more fuel?

so far the car feels (seat of the pants) faster..... also the intake is louder, which means it is getting more air.....

porting the upper intake inlet and the TB and MAF have made a slight difference.... seems like i was right...but i did screw up by getting too greedy on the TB p&P but that is fixed now (thanks to my trusty hammer)

i havent sprayed in weeks....... i was wondering how the dhp would react to the nitrous?

ya'll still didnt answer my questions about the added mods from my 14.3 run? and my hood is usually on....i took it off at the track....as well as spare..backseats...panels...and other crap ...
at the track it a race car...and elsewhere it is my "Grocery Getter"
to make this car hit low 14's you gotta take off the gloves....lighter fists fly faster and punch harder!

Currently the fastest N2O in the states? Ok, I gotta call ya on that one. What'd you say you ran? 14.3? The fastest N2O time is currently by PACE with a 13.86@96.1mph, which I was on hand to witness. It's a little early to start talkin' smack here newb'. Some people don't like that around here.

Even if he does have motor work.... What do you call P&P of the MAF and TB? It may not be major, but it's still work.
