Finally went to the track last night....

[Kyle in NO]

Nice weather, about 74 degrees. Only ran 3 runs with some really shitty launches, but still ran a best of 14.336 @ 101.89! I'm pretty happy about that, and with some nice launch technique, I KNOW I can get to 14 flat or maybe even 13.999 on a good day as-is. I had to back out of the throttle a bit too because of wheel hop. Best run occurred at 12:30 am lol....Midnight Drags...

TCD S1 kit running 11psi on a b34 bottom/b35 top end. Felt pretty good tonight. Booker claims that a few people in the stands were impressed with that "white BMW" after a few pulls They kept saying that "it must have something done to it..." I guess they be correct!

Nice! How many HP do you have? I run 14.6 on the 1/4 .
I know I can do better but it's my first time

Awesome Kyle. Glad you went! Can you post the details from the slip when you awake? Did you shift into 4th gear?

Wheel hop = need new subframe bushings.

Wheel hop = original rear shocks from 1984 lol. Subframe bushings are brand new HD units. Plus I wasn't slipping the clutch enough either.

With stock lower end and b35 head, the CR is lower, ~7.5:1. So 11psi is high 200s whp.

Based on the MPH it's closer to 250-260rwhp.

Todd,

That's unpossible. I heard you can get 280 whp easily with a 535is with a chip, port/polish, k&n, and cat-back. I read it here on this forum.

Are you talking with a turbo also, or NA and that equipment.

If NA, Ive yet to see a dyno of a M30b34 worked to the max make more than ~240whp, even with stoker cranks. Now, I haven't seen every dyno either, but Ive seen alot. To be fair, Ive not seen a dyno of a NA stoker M30b34, but Ive/weve heard from people with worked strokers of really disappointing dyno results, but none ever posted any that I can remember. And Id remember a 250whp NA dyno.

I think Mr. Booker is being a bit facetious, with a healthy sprinkling of sarcasm.

Russ apparently didn't get the reference.

FYI, Russ, "unpossible" isn't a real word.

[Jeremy]

It must be a word, I heard it on the TV!

Me fail English? That's unpossible!
