Moroso

Any of you guys ever go to moroso?

Last wedesday, their was to sliver g's.

First one hit like a 15.2

2nd one came to the tree and you heard the turbo, so you knew what was coming. 1st run he hit a 12.3 then he hit a 12.21. It was really clean.

sadly to say that was me and the other guy is Mike, this is his car http://store.yahoo.com/sgpracing-store/mi03ing3.html
i had two runs one was a 15.2 w/ VDC ON, yes i know i'm a dumbass. Dan at the next meet def sign me up for a VDC module
and my previous run was a 15.0 w/ no traction on first and second. It was my first time at the track and i suked it up. Me and the guy in the 1.8T GTI i was racing against, are going again in like two weeks or so. cause we both suked, so we need some practice

Mike had his car built by SGP? How long ago did he get the work done? How is the car running? I bought that same motor. Other than his exhaust, Zex Nitrous, and larger injectors (I have RC 550's) my set up is exactly like his. I should have the car back in a week with the new motor.

I am in the same shoes and I definately did not have the intentions of spending the price of the car in mods. Unfortunately mods are not cheap for this car and one thing leads to another.......**** just happens Neff.

yes he had his car built by SGP, i dunno how long ago he got it done, but his car was running great. Although he went thru 3 clutches and 2 transmitions. He ran a 12.2 w/ no traction, he said he was expecting high 11's.

ahh....I doubt I will go through my clutch. I bought me the ATS twin carbon clutch. It rated for something like 700 ft/lbs of tq. Trasmissions???? Does he have an auto? I never heard of a 6mt damaging the transmission.

He has a 6mt, he said 2nd gear starts to grind and soon enough the whole trans goes bad

I don't think so (crossing fingers). I am only going to have it tuned to 500whp for my high boost setting. My low boost will be around 450whp and that's the setting I'll daily drive in. There are plenty of guys running 520-575whp with no tranny problems.

I just switched the actuator springs so my low setting will be 10psi and the high will be set at whatever it takes to get it to 500whp. I think I should hit 500whp with 12-14psi.

Wow, thats really impressive, I thought a lot of people were having trouble making into the 12 second range with out blowing up their cars but it looks like that guy is trying to break into the 11's.
