I finally got to the track to run the car.
I babied it off the line(i got the 5s tranny) and i am only running 13 psi with 18" tires but overall i had good times. 1/4 mile times were at 14.4 and 14.5 the whole time top speeds were 97 and 98 mph i think if i run it again i am gonna put the stock 15" rims on and turn the boost to about 16-17 and see what happens! I think 13's are easily within reach! DG -------------------- |

CT26 Efficiency
Read Read those. You have pitted efficiency against gains. Now your saying that the 3s wont see much gains after 10psi because the CT26 is past its prime efficiency. This is a generalized and subjective statement. What do you mean by much gains? Thats where the subjective part comes in. Your opinion of "much gains" can be different that anothers. But the efficiency of the CT26 increases or decreases with factors like ambient pressure, intercooler etc. etc. Now the STOCK intercooler will allow the CT26 to work fine until 15lbs, and it will not stop producing any sort of gains until after that. Then the problem of hot air can come into play and a more efficient intercooler is needed to cool down that air. -------------------- |
