We live about an hour and 15 minutes from the track. Maybe we could set something up. I'd be interested to learn a little bit about the N/A approach as I am pretty unfamiliar with it and who better to learn from than you lol.

God I really hope everything is fine with my family and stuff for that week so that I can say I am coming 110%.
I don't know if you guys know but I have a Stage IV cancer in immediate family and it has been with us for last 3 months.

So I guess for me I am gonna have to play it by ear.

Ahahah...I don't even get to drive it lol. It's the only car in our fleet that I have not been allowed to drive on the street...So chances are you guys have absolutley no shot.

Jazz, I'm sorry to hear that. Family first and I hope your family member ends up defeating their cancer. We would definitley miss you up there.

Well, the car still hasn't had an initial fire up. I plan on getting to work tomorrow no later than 9 and working hard on it. All that is left is figuring out how to route the fuel lines and then plugging in all the DFI plugs. But remember folks, thats just for the initial start up. Much more will need to be done before it is ready to hit the track. We were evening thinking of making this event it's debut at the track. What do you guys think? I'm afraid I'll be a bit rusty but it should have enough power to run a 10 even on a not so good pass.

yea right ben at this point I'd be happy with a mid 14

the warm weather is def slowin my car down. I'm averaging 14.3 @ 95ish mph now =\

hopefully ryne can get me my interface module and spark plug wires out asap so I can finally get my MSD installed and start messing with a better spark curve.

then I'll throw it on the dyno and get a REAL tune on it and hopefully get into the 13s neighborhood




...or I'll just boost it and hit high 11s like I've always had wet dreams about





Re: TVR presents the NA Shootout and JBody Match Race
Friday, June 08, 2007 9:08 PM
wtf do you need an msd for to correct a spark curve?
