This is what a 730whp car looks like when your converter stalls to 2400rpm!

    The burnout was fun but the rest sucks. I have already shipped the converter back to the place that built it to get it restalled. I asked for it to be a little tighter but this converter is stupid tight. I'm hoping it stalls somewhere between 4000-4500 when I get it back! Heres the link to the vid

    I short shifted at 5700rpm. the mph was 139.7 so I hope with higher shift points and a good sixty the mph will pick up. My 1/8 mph was only 106mph.

    Was there any 2 step or anti lag ECU program ??
    Trans brake etc?? Sounds like it needs some sorting in these area's too ??

    There is a transbrake. There is no reason I should need a two step or a ecu program. It is carbed and with the previous converter I could build 7 pounds on the foot brake and 20 plus in 2-3 secs on the brake! The converter justs needs to be loosened up!

    I could be wrong but i thought one of the reasons for a two step was to bring the rpm's up on the brake to just before the converter flashes ?

    Man you didn't hit real boost till about 100ft out. A 2 or 3 step will help you get into boost on the starting line and pick you up. What was your 60'?

    Curious what the 60ft was on that run, that was a dogg but great MPH for a 12 second run. :eek:

    4500 with boost might be way too much and probably too loose even if you shift at 6400 etc.

    What RPM does the car reach full boost?

    Have you figured out the efficiency yet, try it out here. Just because it's tight down low doesn't always mean it will be up top.
