Boosted Falcon

I don't post much but I'm fairly happy with my effort ,so I thought I might as brag a bit.
I had four runs tonight & ran 13.76,13.76,13.73,13.70 with 1.93-1.95 60ft @98.54-99.65 mph.
Was hoping for a 13.5 but still happy with the effort.
I need a quicker 60ft time but I don't think the auto will let me acheive that.

demand time slips, whats done to car

your either boosting it

or you push poo.

N/A or turbo ?

Either way it is impressive, get some details up about you car,

ef block ,au rods,flat tops 10.3:1 compression ,ported polished head,jmm dev5 cam,
jmm race series extractors, match ported bbm,3800stall, 4.11 locker,capa switch chip

Pics and timeslips or ban

You'll have to forgive us if we sound a little suspicious - your car sounds extremely similar to a (now banned) members car who claimed very similar times, N/A, but was running nitrous....If you are for real, you are my hero...but you have to prove it.

didnt know u could put a 3800 stall in a BTR fuckbox without it crying foul to the ECU

Yes even with the switch chip if you load it up to 3800 it will go into limp mode & stuff up the afr's
the car runs rich, but if you stall it up to aruond 2000rpm & stand on it at the green it doesn't go into limp mode.

No need to be suspicious on the other forum I was cotton eye joe, the car is n/a,I live in mackay nth qld.
This has not been an overnight job, I started modding the engine 3.5 years ago, It's first ever run was a 16.1.
You would think I was mad If you new how much money & time I spent on it. When I work out How to post up my slips I will,
& I would love To post a video of it at the drags on youtube but I havn't got a video of it yet .

Scan, or even take a photo of your dyno and time slips, then go to http://www.photobucket.com - create a user account, then upload the pics, and then paste the links in this thread. It's all pretty self explanitory, but if you need any help just ask.

Got the timeslips onto photo bucket. I also added a video of the ef at the townsville hill climb I
did last september ,the car isn't much to look at I'm more concered on how it goes.
It was running 3.45 lsd & 2600 stall then & ran a 14.5 quarter consistantly
now has the 4.11,lokka & 3800 stall

Shotgun your ripshifter.


Congrats on the times Tuffbicky!

i'm convinced, red cars are fast.

Joe and Gilli you guys just got to learn how to drive a stick properly. jk

Thats a hugely impressive time for an Auto. Do you know what kind of weight you're running?

I have similar mods, minus the bottom end work, and have only netted a 15 flat. I know my cam timing was out quite a bit (since fixed, need to go to the track again), my bottom end has 260Ks on it, and I have a lot more weight (Fairmont electrics/stereo/LPG), but reading this thread really makes me wonder what else is wrong with my setup. I need help!

Top effort!
And respect for
a) posting slips and a vid
b) having timeslips that don't point to nitrous
c) consistency!!

All things that other "N/A" BTR equipped EL doesn't have

good stuff, thats a awesome time for a n/a falc

very impressive times. congratulations. I understand that is alot of work involved in achieving those times.

Rollin, when are we heading out to the drags!!! I must beat this time.

Woah, nice one.

N/A isn't so ghey after all

Wow.

Looks like you've got some worthy competition now skro.

the weight I run when I race is the same as I run on the street, that is jack ,spare,some tools & fuel , however I do use 255/50 16 m/t street radials it's the easyest way to stop wheelspin.On friday I would have had about 40 liters + I'm 95kilo's so at a guess 1550kg or more.I was only running 15.3 with 3.45lsd no stall & no chip just factory ecu.

ohh, mt street radials...

still, an impressive time... Your just ahead of V8 Ghia, who ran a 13.75, also on mt street raidals.

here is a vid of my 13.82, on my $135 17's... and no wheelspin.

Well bugger me sideways!!!! Who would have thought a BTR could ever launch?

Your car is seriously impressive mate, it must have some insane midrange to be able to drag the car down the quarter in the same time as OED, when you take into account more power loss through and auto and a probably heavier car.

Full props to you!

Now...OED....about that head work...........It's going to happen if I have to break into your shed and pull the head off while you sleep!

i know what needs to be done skrotum.

maybe i will hold off on the turbo for 12 months (i will probably still buy parts required for it though). at least i will have a decent crack at the N/A title in Vic next winter on our road trip... You have to let me have a steer of your car then. I didnt get a drive of the red one.

i still reckon your car will kill JMMs time if you drag spec it for one weekend paul. front runners.. (even povo eb 14's) standard suspension.. et streets.. no front swaybar.. all adds up to massive time drop.

Yeah we could do that...but anyone can go fast if you ditch all the weight out of the car - it's far more impressive if you do it as driven on the street.

OED - don't think I have forgotten I owe you a drive, I've mentioned it to a few people. Once the panels are fixed and I have a not gay clutch you can give it a royal serving

G'day went to test & tune tonight but my convertor is stuffed its slipping to much don't know what's going on there.
looks like I need another one
But still good enough to fry a standard Tornado.

Holy shit thats wicked

do you know what the tornado ran ?

Holy crap man you and the car are pretty bloody quick off the line. Nice work.

great work mate, im very envious.

i ran mine again yesterday after "fixing" some issues with cam timing & valve springs and ran a whole second SLOWER, but in hotter temps and hitting the limiter in 2nd. it rained before i got another run in

i would be happy with high 14s considering my weight & tyre disadvantage.

do you know what the tornado ran ?

Not sure on what we ran on that run had 5 runs got 3 time slips My mate said it ran 104mph
he had a slow R/T but i was still way ahead down the other end.

By the way do you have any relatives here in Mackay .I have Grech's for neighbours & know a few Grech families
here in Mackay.

Hey,

Nah sorry, any Grech relations to us are quiet scarce lol!

Also yea generally when you mod your car performance wise, it "feels" quicker but then shortly after, you get shattered., like me, changed cam, and couldnt get a 14 back .
