Took My Alero To The Track Friday Night.

[kou5oku]

Hey all,

I guess the pcm DOES make a small difference.

My best time before : 15.646

Now I consistantly hit : 15.4

Cold night in the 40's, in Phoenix, AZ

good time bro. what were you racing against that ran a 17? :lol:

[kou5oku]

Haha it was a Maxima that was a n00b

He drove past the line up lights and kept driving forward, They had to open his door and show him where to line up..

Cant hate for being a n00b.

But I did beat a mustang, He said "I missed third gear", I replied " Yeah, but I have a f***ing alero"

haha

[Redog]

Nice time and nice r/t too :thumbsup:

You got the 4 or the 6cyl?

[kou5oku]

6 cyl.


Now I wanna have headers and later the turbo.

3rd can be a bitch in Mustangs, but it still is NOT an excuse if you lose....Great job man, I can't wait till I get my headers and TB in the spring!

IMO don't waste your money on headers if you are gonna turbo later, cuz resale is a bitch and you are just gonna take a hit in the wallet......

Yeah a Turbo should come with new Manifolds if you strap a turbo to some headers then your looking for trouble. Good Times though, I have a hard time getting second in my dads dakota especailly when I try to shift it fast.

[Daytona]

Good work. You have no catalytic converter?

[kou5oku]

Daytona:

I have a straight pipe with flanges welded to it, and bolts right up to the flanges I welded in my exhaust.

SO I can swap my cat to the straight pipe for off road use ;)


needless to say that I dont notice any loss due to less exhaust back pressure.

Not having a cat actually helps make the car faster so I'm not surprised that your times are so much better than stock.

[kou5oku]

What are the typical Stock times?

Thanks!

[Vtolds]

High to low 16's depending on engine/trans.

Do you run an O2 simulator all the time, even WITH the cat? Or do you just run races without an O2 sensor?
