Took the mm out....woo....hoooo

[hotford]

well lets start out by saying Dasliva racing had TMP rented out both the drag strip and road course yesterday and what an amazing turn out on both tracks with over 100 cars showing for a rental day is amazing, it rained till 11 am and then the clouds opened up and the day was great.

I took advantage of the day taking up my MM and my bro's car.
very happy with th results and I know there still alot of room for improvement.......

11.62@120 mph......

this was done with car at full weight( like there are any light weight componets for our cars....lol), on a Nitto drag radial 305/45/18, pump gas tune...........
60 fts could have been better but the nitto's worked well but I know the M/T are alot better.
had several passes in the 11.6,s with the first pass being a 11.70 at 121...

check out my .008 R/T I was killing the tree all day...............

I was laughing hysterically, O MY. That dude in the stang musta been thinking " Holy$hat that big black beast just kicked my a$$ WTF" And then followed with " I guess I need to start spending some money now to go fast "

Great stuff, nice run

She was moving, can I ask how much psi were you on?

When I punch it, it goes to 18 PSi but then drops off to 15.5 PSI.

Maybe some resriction due to the Triolgy inlet design........

Looking at porting the inlet to the blower this winter, hopefully that helps her out a bit...........or just gonna set up to a 2.9...........

Nice pass!! P.s just let me know if u decide to sell her lol

Been reading a lot about thata blower, but I'm starting to wonder if we could put it on our cars, the snout is a lot shorter than the 3.4 and the 2.3 it seems. someone had mentioned belt alignment issue could be an issue with it.

The 2.9l is the same as a 2.3, it just has a shorter snout, belt alignment will be the same as the 2.3

I talked with Whipple about this and they said the dimentions are the same as far as length and height, the 2.9s case is longer so it takes a shorter snout to work on the 03/04 cobra, both are direct bolt in replacement/upgrades

In that case, this means that the 2.9 can also fit under the stock hood?

Looks great, man the front end really lifts up for you. I need to remember to tape my quarters too. Rubber is kinda hard to get off - all over the tips too.

Nice run! Did DaSilva do your dynotune?

Thanks, car transfers pretty good........

Lidio is the one who did the tune..........

[hotford]

belt slip or leak?

well no leak as I have smoke tested the car......could be belt slip,but there are no sign's of this.........
just think the inlet needs to be ported to help it grab the air better......
If i go to the 2.9 it will be with a crusher inlet.........
one concern is that the body is longer and may interfer with the hood clearance....just gonnna shim the K member down.........

Also the coolant cross over tubes would need modifing as the come out on a different angle and the 2.9 body being longer will interfear.......

[MOTOWN]

YES it will(with the right pulley), both the 2.3, and the 2.9 are the same length from rear to the pulley

Yes the 2.9s case is longer but the snout is shorter, were still dealing with the same length on both blowers

Now, that would be a sleeper
