View Full Version : "with your permission.."

So it's 8:20pm on south 10th street leaving Long John Silver's. I got Adam's charger, he's 1/2 **** drunk in the other seat, when I see a black Z4 with Minnesota plates cruise on past. I stay idle on the throttle and tell Adam "I won't do it unless you give me permission.." he replies "permission granted". So I ease on the gas and get up to his bumper. We cruise around all the crazy traffic and eventually get next to each other, I give him a rev, he jolts it back, and we follow side by side a ways. We cross Van Dorn and get a small opening. He nails it, I follow, not even power shifting. I'm more or less "sport driving". Shifting 5k, shifting quick... I get right on his ass, cut across 3 lanes, cut it back, hit the center, back to the left, etc... I normally don't do this at ALL, but mother ****er this felt SOOOOOOO good. And I'm here to tell you.. that ***** wasn't going ANYWHERE off the turbo dodge. If this were a fair 1/4 mile race out in the open, I'd predict the dodge by 1.5-2 cars.
This **** was just AWESOME. I'd be very stoked if I were Adam right now.. A taking on a Z4 like that is not something done every day and his car is far from tuned, non-intercooled, MAYBE 4 psi of boost, etc etc...

Adam, you and I should run sometime, how much boost you running again?

I don't actually know for sure, I just have a line run straight from the manifold to the wastegate. Usually it equates to roughly 4-5 psi.
Need to finally get off my ass and get the intercooler plumbed and cam degreed so I can put up to 14.
22 once I get the bigger injectors in.

It stuck with a z4 only running 4-5psi?

It was glued on the bimmer's ass. And I wasn't giving it its all. I am thoroughly impressed with that car.

Not to mention a bunch of parts, tools, and LJS's in the back seat.
I'd also say two people, but the Z4 also had two people. Typical chunky popped-collar frat boy types. :lol:

They're driving a bimmer, did you expect anything less than total d-bags in it?

So my lady and I rolled up to walmart in the grand prix a couple hours ago to find this thing parked at the far end of the lot... parked ON a line even. So she pulls in right next to him, sporting the WFO logo plain as day hoping the guy would add up the team from last night. I was taking the cart back when the pretty boy came to the car, puts the top down, scoured at Lindsey, and left. :lol:

I got 56lb high impedance injectors if those are any bigger

Nah, I got them already, just need to make sure everything's kosher first. I have a 3bar MAP and custom cal to go with them. I still have a couple of bugs to work out before I go that far though. IAC, SDS, and fan control circuits aren't working quite right.

56lbs at what psi?

Well that's mighty important:lol: My SDS is out too, but I know why.

43psi.
They are Mopar injectors made by Seimens.

20th April 2008, 08:43 PM
@ 4 bar they are 65lb/hr
Stock SRT-4 is 55lb @ 4 bar
03 SRT-3 is 50lb @ 4 bar

20th April 2008, 09:49 PM
The largest we use is like 46-48lbs at 55psi

52 pph @ 55 psi for most people that use large injectors. Some use 72 pph. Get with the program newbie. ;)

The 72s that Cindy sells are listed as low impedence. I honestly have no idea what that means (i'm not educated in electrical theory), but it makes me wonder if these Neon injectors would work or not.

if you need low inpedance injectors, you cant use the neon ones. Ours are high impedance. But we can use low impedance injectors with a resistor box to match the impedance.
supercrackerbox
21st April 2008, 03:38 AM
Thought as much. Oh well, my 52s will suffice for now, I have a long way to go before I need anything bigger. I'm not gonna be able to keep tires on this car the way it is.

It has to do with how much of a load it puts on the circuit

I honestly have no idea aside from you'll have 3 or 4 bolts on the leading edge of each fender, a couple of rivets at the front of each wheel well where the facia is connected, and whatever holds the facia to the bumper itself.
What, you think I took the nose off my Daytona on purpose? :lol:

But this is also with a coupe (don't know if it's heavier or lighter?) and a professional driver, so who really knows?
