without internal mods or some kind of race fuel/alch injection I highly recomend you do NOT run 12psi on the EG33

Note to Tom...

Change wording with Avatar to read "Official S/C engine parts breaker"
(Hey, somebody has to do it and you're the man who has stepped up!)

-Bill (apologies to "old Tom" who only "kinda" broke his engine with his s/c )

Mike - any traction issues on your 14.1 run? What rpm did you drop the clutch at?

-Bill

Yes the tires rotated a little before biting, but not bad, Maybe about half a rotation. As for RPM, I'm not really sure. I was going off engine sound and not the tach. I was watching the tree. I didnt bring the RPMs up until the lights started.

Gotta say it was pretty funny watching the svxi making good use of the burnout box

Is that with your fwd or are you talking awd burnout... any video?

[TomsSVX]

Mike and I had to do burnouts to get any kind of launch... I also did a burnout in shotgunslade's car just to make sure the street tires would stick because I know I had trouble with mine on my black car

I think you have your numbers mixed up. It's 13.20 and it was done by poweredx2. I have a feeling that record won't make it through next year though.

Glad you guys had a good time at the track. Sorry to hear about the motor Tom. Let me know how your search for a new one goes as I have one with 102K miles on it that just needs valve seals that I don't want to part with, But I will if you need it bad enough.

Actually, I think he's referring to the one time slip that Dan posted in the first post. The car that ran against him had a 12.30 @ 110.

Thanks for the offer but I am not foolish enough to run this kind of power in a daily driver. The car is allowed to take a break whilst I figure out how I want to attack the issue. Plus it is the end of the semester here and I need to buckle down and get my final projects done and study for finals. The car is on the back burner for the next 2-3 weeks

yea im intrested in what car that was i know it wasnt a svx,

tom i ran 12.80s-12.90s on stock street tires and driving around the burn out box, there is no need to, in a AWD
1.60'-1.70's was my average 60' with launch control activated around 5,500-5,800 rpm
etheir i cut really good 60's or loose the 60' and gain on the top end trap speeds.

ohh well the wrx is gone =< and the svx is no way even close to being fast , so ill guess ill stay to styling and profiling LOL
