15.02 sec in my KL-ZE MX-3

Post by curtklze »

I went back to the track last night and I spent more time trying out new things.<P>My best time was a 15.043 at arount 94.13 MPH<BR>My 60 foot times were 2.272, 330foot 6.374 and the 1/8 mile was 9.748.<BR>I also cut a .582 light(my best so far)<P>I got these times buy pulling my air filter and filter lid off the box, pluging the fuel press regulator, icing down the intake manifold, doing a dry burn out, launching hard at 2500, and shifting at 6500.<P>I still had my stock 1 3/4 exhaust.<P>the track started to go away after dark and I ran out of ice so my times started to turn to s---, but I still ran a few 15.3's

You could probably shave a few tenths off your times by shifting a smidge later. I dont know the exact rpms...I shift at redline (7000 rpm on my 93)....<P>either way, nice improvement didn't you get almost 16 last time?!!<P>you ever thought about building a cheap home depot intake? 50-70 bucks?

Curt I still got some peices of my old PRM if you want it, it's yours, you'll just need to buy some silicone fittings. I'll bring it to ST. Thomas for you IF YOU JUST GIVE ME SOME DIRECTIONS ON HOW TO GET THERE :p

Your MPH is supporting a faster time than that I think you should shift a little higher like at least 6800rpm. Also what ecu are you using the guys with the 1.8 ecu shift lower and the guys with the 2.5 ecu shift higher. with the 2.5 ecu I was shifting at 7600rpm on the stock tach that is about 7200rpm on the auto meter. Go to toronto motorsports tonight and we can see!
