Well Im heading out to the Auto Club Dragway in Fontana, CA this Saturday May 30th, 2009. Conditions are looking good, and I'm hoping to get at least 7-10 good runs in. I will be posting my 1/4 times and reporting on my experience at the track. Just to recap, this car is running a custom dual exhaust, a Diablosport Predator Tuner, stock air box with stock filter, 91 octane with octane boost raising octane 3 points and running on stock 18" wheels. This will be the cars first time out at the track and I estimate the car will most likely run low 15's in the 1/4 mile.
I can feel the level of excitement rushing through my veins as this weekend pushes me closer to installing my Whiplash Supercharger. The direction I chose was to get stock or close to stock 1/4 mile run times prior to installing the supercharger so I have a good comparison as to what the difference really is. Yeah sure dyno's are good way of getting horspower figures (which I will be providing on this blog), but Im a firm believer that people really want to know what a car can do on the street. So for all of you that find value in this information it will be posted as I go!
So when will the supercharger be installed, as many people have asked? The date now is pretty much set in stone as long as all goes well. The date is set for the weekend of June 19th, 2009. Stock and Supercharged Dyno's will be posted following the install and the car should be back out at the track by the weekend of June 27th, 2009 for updated 1/4 mile run times.
