This video is just a rough draft, but im impatient lol. My co worker has a talent for editing. Hit up local 1/8 mile last week, not the greatest track but it was 10 min away. Got a lot of attention after walking a new 5.0 mustang on radials, a new saleen mustang , an evo (dont know mods), many hondas.... pretty sure those runs will be in the final version. We forgot to turn the mic volume up for the in-car shot and a few other spots, but you listen and you will hear tires spinning to 93mph ( end of 3rd).

enjoy!

I like the "DeadMou5" remix. I like that cd.

Car looks bad ass too.. I couldnt help but look at the reflection in the paint of you pushing the camera on a skateboard. i laughed. awesome video

Yea I love that song, the original version is great but a tad too slow for a short video. I laughed when I saw reflection too, but hey not bad for rushing the shots. We get paid to work on cars and sell go-fast goodies not making videos... hopefully that will change in the future eh?

I don't think he's ever posted a dyno. Gotta be 250-300+ whp to get times like that, I would think.

Garrett t3 60 trim, 27psi. My fastest 1/4 mile ET was on 23psi ( track was ridiculously well prepped).

Wow 27 psi on a yaris, I suppose you are near 400Hp! Are you running/mixing racing fuel and methanol aswell ?

What's your fastest 1/4 mile ?

93 octane pump gas, with water methanol injection ( peak windshield washer fluid). 12.29 was my quickest ET, once tracks open again after the winter I will run full boost on that same track.

Don't you think running high boost on low octane can cause detonation and damage your motor? What is your maximum ignition timing presently?

Not with water/methanol. I'm going on 1.5 years on mine (24 psi) and my motor is in great shape. I bet his is doing pretty well too. :thumbsup:

Exactly. WMI is the key, plus combined with lower compression ratio pistons high boost is no problem. We have our Time attack tC tuned at 34psi on pump gas with WMI. I'm not sure what my ignition timing is, I haven't looked at my map... I leave that up to our tuner. It is tuned for MBT ( minimum best timing), any good tuner tunes for MBT where any more timing results in no power gain... Beyond that of course knock and detonation occur. I did carry race gas with me when I competed in Ohio for an event this past summer because I wasn't sure if that area had 93 octane. I was prepared to mix.

In this case I cannot understand why my dyno tuner suggested racing fuel (109 Octane) above 16 psi ! He suggested to mix 25% racing fuel with 75 % pump gas. I am still undecided though but certainly if I go with mixing fuels I am hoping some increased hp number aswell. What do you recommend?

In our country pump gas tend to vary octane rating so it is a possible reason.

Your tuner is using a "bandaid" to solve any possible detonation issues. Is the pump gas i your country "leaded" or "unleaded"? Also what is the high octane you can buy @ the pump? Mixing race & pump is not the best thing to do.

cali yaris

^ Agreed. It's very inconvenient to maintain the proper fuel ratio for your tune that way. However, the tuner may not intentionally be using a band-aid. He just may not be familiar with the advantages of WMI. I sure wish I knew about it 6 years ago. Tuning my tC was difficult.

For the 115 trap, I would suspect around 260 wheel judging by weight of car. 400 is way off for that trap whomever suggested that. It's different to see someone do mods to these cars to this extent.

I've been running WMI for a few years and over 700 WHP on my Supra. Best thing I've done. Car makes more power on Race etc...

Good job

Running WM is great and you can tune accordingly so essentially, lower octane won't really matter. :thumbsup:

That is correct, 260whp was what I was around 23psi dialing in for 12.50 index class. I wasn't trying to run my quickest ET, it just happened.
300 whp at 27psi ( never ran that on good track with slicks).

Im confused here..... are you using water or methanol mixture or else ?

This applies to garm aswell...

Yes, I use peak windshield washer fluid. The one rated at -20 degree, which is 35% methanol.

This must be related to your location.

I get 5 gallons of methanol for about $40. That would last me well over a year if I didn't share it.

Considering what you have into your car (and that you aren't going to race every day), I don't see how that's expensive at all. It takes me a full race day on road course (not drag racing), to use most of a gallon. Drag racing hardly uses any at all.

The spray doesn't change volume, it either sprays or not. So 12 seconds of water/meth per pass is a VERY small amount for drag racing.

If you want me to try and sneak you some HEET through customs, email me. LOL

Here in Malta for $40 we get 20 litres unleaded pump fuel. I imagine 20 litres of methanol would cost $80 by least !

I will check out for more but I don't want to tell too much people that I am going methanol. I want it to be my secret weapon :biggrin:

Garm, I appreciate your hellp, so in case I decide to buy what is the total cost involved for at least 2 gallons?
