Ran up to GLD:

First run hit the rev limiter: 12.55 @ 117.55: 1/8 mile 8.23
Second run did a burnout through 1st. gear, 2.4 60ft and ran 13.57 @ 116.26
Third run spun the wheels but hit 12.68 @ 117.43 1/8 mile 8.36 @ 89.81.

My last two runs saw a significant drop in MPH 12.7 @ 113.6 and then last run was a 114.3 at 12.8. Not sure what happened. Even in the 113.6 I ran a 8.33 1/8 mile. The car seemed to lose the back end power. The only thing I did was pull the chip and tried to put a moates adapter on it to run another program. I could not get it to work, so I put the stocker back in....no SES lights.

Ran on Sumitumos, they were not bad, I could launch at about 1800 without spinning them.

Put my time in the DA calculator, I think its wishfull thinking, but here is what it spit out:

Stock and Mildly Modified Naturally Aspirated Engines
12.368 @ 119.442 MPH

Extensively Modified Naturally Aspirated Engines
12.465 @ 118.644 MPH

Let me suggest that you "drain" the ECM when swapping proms. Perhaps the SES light caused the ECM to throttle back even tho you replaced with original chip.

I assume the 1992?

LGAFF · 09-07-2009

Yup the 92.

nice runs ,especially with street tires

Ccmano · 09-07-2009

Largely due to operator error, best I could muster today was 114.21mph @ 13.235.

I simply could not launch the car properly. Either spinning the tires badly or (mostly) bogging on takeoff.

My best 60' time was a poor 2.304 on that same run.

Here's what the DA Calculator told me...

Stock and Mildly Modified Naturally Aspirated Engines
13.015 @ 116.182 MPH

I was running my Haibeck chip and forgot to bring the Cory Henderson chip with me. I suspect the Henderson chip would have been better as it takes out less timing.

Looks like I need launch lessons, any volunteers?

Hans,

I think you are running too rich. I ran a near stock 90 to 12.88 at 112.68, that car even has the same tires as yours. I think I could only muster a 113... in yours with a ported intake and headers. Something is off on the low end, and you are picking up big MPH after the 1/8th. I think your speed at the 8th mile is only about 83MPH.

I recently put a Haibeck chip in my 90 that was intended for a ported car. After driving it for awhile, I thought I had a miss or bad coil. Once I went back to the DRM chip this afternoon, no issues. I think maybe you should try a milder chip and see if that resolves some of the issues.

Obviously data logging would be the best thing to do.

Ccmano · 09-07-2009

My 1/8th mile mph was 84.7, still crappy. We'll see how the Henderson chip does.
