First time to track in two years, 1/8th mile. Two years ago I ran a 8.13 and 8.14 with 05 common rail, stock turbo, stock cp3, 100hp tips and a stock 200k mile engine.
Now to present day, engine is fresh, QSB480 pistons, EEP street puller cam, mild ported head (smoothed runners and bowls) side draft intake, S366 box charger, 30% new pump, 150hp injectors.
Ran best of 7.91 at 86mph. 1.70 60ft spinning.
Im slightly disappointed that truck didnt go a little faster, given what it did stock. Tuning is an issue, as Im using an old Triple Dog. EGT's seem high, as it will defuel at 1690ish.
The truck comes out of the hole very nice considering the tire spin, but seems to peter out after the 3rd gear shift, locking convertor going into second.
Any advice or thoughts, other than better tuning?? If I could spool the turbo easier on the line would be great. I think Im getting the EGT's so high just to spool on the line that it ends up defueling down track.
I have a nitrous kit, but no gate just yet. I might run a small shot to spool easier. Will nitrous, a small amount bring the temps down??
Any advice, tips, pointers?? Other than sticky tires and better tuning??
