Drag/Acceleration Kia Stinger 1/4 Mile Times

[DaJackson]

I ran 13.1 twice at the same event. Mine is awd with intakes and jb4 map 2. I was beat by a 100% stock awd who ran sub 13sec on his second run. I had to see the awd badge on the back and see under the hood before believing him.

Sounds like someone needs a driver mod.

What Octane were you running? Where was the track located? What was the weather? Also, he could have had a flash tune.

I like that the only car to beat you was another Stinger! I got in 5 runs last outing and won them all (faster ET)

Finally got to the track today. Car was very consistent minus a couple runs in comfort mode lol. God I wish you could set sport mode as default. Anyhow awd Stinger with jb4 map 2 and borlas. Seven runs never lost a race. Track temp. 89 degrees. 93 octane.

Are you not showing the comfort mode runs? Did comfort cost you about 4 tenths? I did this once and noticed immediately.

Fuel wires?

If not, then get them as this was a game changer for me.. It allowed me with 5 gallons of E85 to comfortably run Map 3 and will try Map 5 this weekend..

yes sir

Couldn't figure out why launch control wasnt working, I had turned off the car and she defaulted to comfort. The 13.11 I think was driver.

yes fuel wires

 

[RandallK]

Well get to trying Map 3... lol.. it’s the same level of change from map 1 to Map 2.. Map 1 now feels slow to me and Map 2 now that I am on 3 is starting to feel the same way.

yes fuel wires

I'd like to try map 3 next week. I'm not sure what the fuel requirements are e85? Is it a mix of e85 and 93?

Basically you’ll need between 96-100 octane. So E30 (mixture of E85 and regular unleaded) should be about 96 octane. You can use E85 or octane booster to get you up to 96. You can use unleaded Cam2 or Sunoco 260GT for 100 octane.

Or you can just try it out with 93 the car will let you know if its likes it or not so far I've been running map 3 for almost 3 weeks and no problem on 93

Yeah comfort mode is a killer on power and it's not the lack of launch control. Not using launch with sport mode only costs you .03 where comfort costs you .3 or .4. Friends don't let friends drive in comfort mode.
We should petition KIA to leave the drive mode where you left it.
