So I got WMI running. Mods are listed below my signature line with the major ones being agency power intakes, ultimate performance intercooler, agency power blow off valves, and WMI. Why am I hitting a 4.5-4.7s 0 to 60?

running e30 with a 60/40 Meth/Water ratio.. trying to hit sub 4s, is this possible?

0-60 is just a measure of traction. Look at 1/4 mile trap speed for measures of power. More power doesn't always mean quicker time to distance or time to speed especially if traction is limited.
 
This is true, I'll be going to a 1/4mi track this Saturday, I'll throw the logs for the runs on here.. Any way to tinker with the map 8 settings to gain a quicker 1/4 with the results from Saturday @Terry@BMS?

Kinvara How does your buttdyno feel with the meth? Im jonesing to get a WMI unit....:) Wash
 
i went from pioneering the stinger parking brake boost launch, to not being able to hold traction with launch control on summer tires at 24psi to all 4 corners... Butt Dyno, Ear Dyno and passenger dyno are all positives.. Gotta get better tires before i start hitting sub 4s 1/4 i guess

Have you tried adjusting the boost by gear settings?
 
no, how do i do that

Does this affect map 8 or only map 6?
 
Both your target boost on that log and actual boost is not very high in gear 1 and 2. I hit those boost values on map 2 in first and second. Without higher boost in first and second (like 17+ PSI), plus traction, I don't think you'll be getting much faster.

FWIW I'm in the 5's still on map 2, it sucks.

PASSENGER DYNO? if you want to do good 0-60 times, better not have anyone else than you ride in the car :laugh:
