Will I break Something
 

Would do you guys think. Will I break something when I go to the nationals. I have to make sure that I bring AAA with me. For people who don't know, I have a stock rear end and a stock shortblock. Will I break something that day???

Did you get your fuel issues straightened out?

still on the dyno. A sensor blew off the intake manifold while it was being dynoed. Also, boost controller sucks so they are still trying to iron out the bugs, so at answer your question, no, the fuel issues have not been straigthened out yet

ahh gotcha... I remember hearing that you were macng out your pump or something like that

if you race, probably. but just take it easy and you should be ok. Then again, who would want to take it easy when you have all that power at the push of the pedal lol all I have to say is good luck!

what are your mods? just the sts right?...auto or manual? Are you gonna run slicks?

too late, blew the slp maf right off the car during a dyno pull. ahhhh it sucks :x :x :x :x

nope, have other mods. auto and will run either drag radials or slicks. not sure yet

do you have a converter? Stock gears I assume(3.23)? if you have stock gearing & TC im thinkin your gonna run a mid 12@115+mph but will not break anything.

yes to the converter, yes to the 3.23 and i already passed the 12.0 mark awhile back

before or after the 95* heat hit ;) and what was your mph & DA for your 12 pass...all the sts kits really need is a good size converter because of how they are setup...a good 4000 stall pretty much cures most of their inherent problems.

i ran it before summer really hit, but there were still small problems that weren't addressed. well, it was only really the lack of fuel when it got into higher rpms. now i have the fuel system that is able to deliver more than enough fue. btw, I could barely launch at 2k cause the car would start inching up. had to launch off the e brake :omg: l

I say run it. Blow the rear, and you got a dam good excuse for a 12-bolt :lol:

it'll take alot of launches for his a4 to break the 12 bolt imo...how long was jersey ta running 11.9's-12.2's on his 10 bolt till it broke?

i see you ran 11.8@117...with rain in the forecast & 95* temps your gonna have horrible air to run, but if you got your tuning/fueling issues worked out who knows. What converter do you have in there now? I would assume your making peak tq at like 4400-4500 like most of the sts guys...i would definitly up your converter to at least a 4000-4200 stall since you dont have a transbrake...at least you'll be able to brake stall it to ~3000 which will at least start to get you into boost.

well, the 11.8 was on a 100 shot of nitrous. a lot has chnged since than. Before i was at 425 hp with the nitrous, but now it's well a lil above that :wink:

I'm kinda dreading running the car in 95* temp. it's going to suck big time for me.

btw, how much hp was jersey ta running and did he have slicks when he broke it

~365 to the wheels running 11.9's-12.2's all day...with slicks & skinnies & other suspension work, cam only. Yah but are you running the sts & nitrous? If not its COMPLETELY different...guess you'll find out on sunday, good luck.

was he an a4 or a m6?

no suspension work... :lol: :lol: :lol: except for lca's.... not running the nitrous cause that'll be suicide. we'll definately find out sunday, hopefully nothing else will break on the dyno..

he's an a4 like you...running a ~3200 stall i think.

Dunno......... slicks.... prob!

Depends on how many runs..... how long the cool downs are....how fast the car is.... track conditions too.... etc

i just don't want to break on the 1st run...that'll suck
