Goodbye Torqstorm, hello Spoolius Ceasar
It was definitely blowing through the converter or slipping. Ran a couple of 10.7 passes a couple weeks ago.
10.79@114 letting off at the 1000ft 9.3psi boost (dragy numbers are a little off from timeslip)
10.74@126 7200rpm at the strip (3.55 gears) 10.4psi slipping hard shift light on the entire pass and couldn't hear the shift change.
I ended up pulling a bunch of timing and getting to run on gate. Added a bit of fluid to the trans and bam, the converter seemed to couple. Short track was horrible. But mph is muey bueno for 7.4psi and 6000ft da. I guess next step is to see if adding the timing back has any effect on the converter (maybe it was just enough torque to make it not happy Or maybe it was just low on fluid?)
And I wired up the 2 step in the msd box. Set to 3000rpm. Tested it out on foot brake and hot damn it builds boost. Wish I did that at the track.
