guys-
just wanted to drive the car a bit har lately, with heavier footed accelerations, and spirited climbs, to help 'convince' the ecu that i (we) meant business...
here's the runs::
2/3 tank of (florida) fuel, 93 amoco
approx. 20 ft. above MSL
61.5°F and 60% humidity (feels muggy)
165lbs (me)
36lbs tires -each
3600 miles
ONLY mod is the grounding 7-wire kit..... (OEM air filter visibly blackened - to be changed tomorrow, while other items are addressed, like seat rails, window motor, etc...)
initial run = 6.42 in manumatic run, but i really am not comfy with the way this seems to work (bangs and clangs-not smoothe) , so no more for me...
(without the shift mode-mod)
full-on auto modes hereafter::
1st-6.29 good, tires warming more...
2nd-6.19 launch tech. better...
3rd-6.07 how it should be
4th-6.07 cannot believe i got the identical time, but thas what it said
5th-6.22 boggy boggy again
i cannot for the life of me figure out how to launch awd though...
feels like there's a real immediate 'lag' out of the hole, then it romps like mad from 2k on up....
also, seems that it shifts (auto mode only for me..) b-4 reds quite a bit.. (guess thas optimum torque...)
-es
reposting on FA
will be loaner testing sometime soon, i bet....... :twisted:
another run...... in the pouring down rain, i was able to click off a 6.53 best about one week ago.. BEFORE really driving harder/quicker than i usually would....... the car has insanely great pickup in all weather really...
