I decided last night that I should take my car to the track last night. I live about 30 min from an 1/8 mile drag strip that I was always at with my talon. I made 3 passes and couldnt break 10... I have the k&n filter in but thats it, and wheel hop was a problem a launch from 1500 rpms still made hop. Im not so much dissapointed but I use to have a GTI and that just had intake and a revo chip and i broke into 9.9.... Has anyone else made any passes? I need a program for my csrt4 i want to unleash the power within lol

9.96 Was My Best Time.

That Was My First Time To The Strip. I Could Have Done Better But My A Kept Spinning My Tires Thru 1st And Some Of 2nd. Im Going Back Out There Next Week Hopefully I Can Get My Upgrade New Cold Air Intake And Maybe Bigger Intercooler In And Installed Before Then....and See What Happens.

You might get rid of your wheel hop by playing with your tire pressures a bit.
Try lowering it a pound at a time.I had the tire pressure in my firebird down to 15 pounds...i know it's rear wheel drive but just a thought.

you know what guys there is a reason there is a tire inflator where your spair tire should be LOL

These cars, like the NSRT, are tough cars to get good times out of the 1/8 mile because of launching. I'd work on that 60ft. time before I spend money on mods... Speaking of which, bigger intercooler? Are you or someone you know doing a custom fab job or what?

icemanthrilla

you dont need that intercooler unless your upgrading the stock turbo or getting a new one. Its not gonna do much. I would also recomend you practice your launches. Do you have the evic? if u do use it to practice your 0-60 time. Plus 2.5 60' is pretty bad 2.1 is your ideal time with stock tires. the intake might help but the car should run low 9's in the 1/8.

Just run my car last night. Second time at the track made about ten runs. Temp was about 81 degrees really killed my times. My best though was
reaction-.759
60ft-2.504
1/8-9.782
mph-77.16
One little trick you might try on htis run I ran with the A/C on full blast, low rpm launch with minimal wheel spin

I was wondering where everyone lives. I live in west central texas. Anyone around. I havent seen an csrt4 yet, which is good because I want to have the only one in my area. I have been to dallas, midland, and houston, austin, and denver and have not seen one.

Just as a matter of interest Hector at Exhaust Depot in Orlando
has just posted that has a Front Mounted InterCooler ready to
go for CSRT4 and it's being tested on New Mexico Caliber right now.
