bad tune

[g8gtjay1991]

i just got my tune and i am runing slower times in Smode

i was runing 13.4 @ 102 stock and now i am runing 13.9 @ 102

what do yall think i should do

or is it how i am driveing it

i load up to 2rpms should i run it on idle

[G8GT594]

Whats your 60ft on those times and who did the tune?

[GeorgeInNePa]

Many things could be wrong.

Did you get a ECM and TCM tune? Did you go to a "name" tuner or a small shop? Do they have experience with the GM A6 trans?

What is 2rpms? 2000? With a stock converter?

[r33pwrd]

Slower time with same trap speed... sounds like a traction issue to me...

^ what he said? How can you load a 1700 stock stall up to 2000rpms?

Hell...your probably spinning the hell outta the tires.....I launch off idle...1.9 60' everytime...

[g8gtjay1991]

my 60ft was 2.2056 stock was 2.0. whats a ECM and a TCM.. but i think it was a ECM and it was a name place "henderson performance". and yes 2 is 2000rpms and yes a stock converter...
well i ran it two times and no spin at all


i got JBA short headers, aFe cold air intake and magnaflow exhaust systems

[r33pwrd]

I assume you had traction control off?

[g8gtjay1991]

yes is did :))) found that one out with my vette

ECM is engine control and TCM is transmission control.

It's going to be very hard to launch a stock stalled car at 2000rpm, the tires should be spinning at that rpm.

Do you know what the Torque Management was set at?

A 2.20 60' is horrendous.

Did they dyno the car?

No shit.....with drag radials....I tried to stall it up real high...at 1500....the brakes couldn't hold and I ran thru the lights....

[g8gtjay1991]

no sorry no the tires spin after 2000rpms but its hard to get it up there....i all was line up first :(((

yes they dyno the car at 330.47hp and 347.17tq

horrendous? what are you running? my dashhawk says 2.23 60' time but it still makes the qtr mile in 12.8. What's a good 60' time?

I'm going next to say impossible I tried a 1500 launch and my car was walking hard

[g8gtjay1991]

that was a video of my videos but you can see thim on youtube...

i am the only car that has raced a viper :) my bro car...

and there is one of my dyno tune to

go to youtube and look for the "wytedrummer1" he has all my videos

[g8gtjay1991]

i found this out becouse if you keep traction control on it wont go over 2000rpms...so that as high as you can get it with no spin

[TonyKarter]

G8GTJAY,
was that you at Houston Raceway Park last Friday night?

[GeorgeInNePa]

horrendous? what are you running? my dashhawk says 2.23 60' time but it still makes the qtr mile in 12.8. What's a good 60' time?

I can get 1.7s on drag radials, but I have a 3200 stall converter.

1.9s on street tires are what you should be shooting for.

[g8gtjay1991]

no i was at the big bend roadrace :) and i go to the san antonio raceway...

so what do yall think i should do go back and bitch about the tune or what

[g8gtjay1991]

sorry i was really wrong on the rpms its was at 1600rpms and 1500rpms :( my bad for that..

but is it better to run it from idle or does it mater

[superspud]

so a stall converter will shave 3 tenths of a second off my time on street tyres? maybe if i install the udp that'd help too. other than that our set up difference is just suspension.

my next mod was either going to be SLP axle backs or a fasterproms port.

The time in my sig is a link to the thread about my runs that day.

Tthe suspension was stock then and I had a Roto Fab.

Also, the DH is a good tool, but it's not perfect.

Get to the strip and get a few slips.

I highly recommend the TC for the G8.
