Converter Stall and Turbos (http://www.turbomustangs.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=5365)

My car is a street car with all the smog equip, full interior and runs 100mph in the 1/8th but can only manage 1.8 to 1.9 sixty foot times. It seems the turbo is just getting spooled up at the tree. I start to see real power around 3200-3400 or so and I can only foot brake it to 2200-2300. What stall would you guys recommend?

I saw that thread last week that's why I started the post "LOL@Kirk"


Obviously Kirk has no idea what he's doing? I feel for Chris. :(

I talked to Chris last week and I asked who's doing his build up. I almost giggled when he said "Kirk was doing it".

David if you want to race so bad, you could have just said so. How about Denton this Friday night? I'll make a special trip just for you before I put the new converter in. We can even put a little money on it if you like.

Based on your past history, I have relatively zero assurance of you showing up at Denton. I'm not driving 100 miles each way just for you to yank the football out from under me again, Lucy.

But I'll be more than happy to meet you at Redline the Friday. I can be there from 7pm to 12am. I'll even pay your way in.

Let's see, you said you'd meet me last month and didn't show. And you said you'd be out there Friday night and you didn't show. On top of the fact that you said you couldn't race because you were putting in a cage and then admitted you were not.

So, you're batting .000 so far.

Come on out to Redline, I'll pay your way in and if you break I'll even tow you home. You don't have to worry about me not showing up.

I'm not driving 165 miles round trip in rush hour traffic to run at Redline when I can drive 40 miles round trip to run at Denton. From what I understand you work at I35E and Walnut Hill. You are 25 miles from Denton.

I trailered it when it ran 13s. It'll break one of these times. Only a fool wouldn't use a safety net when available. Especially when you're 100 miles from home.

Like I said before, I'll pay your way in and if you break I'll trailer your car home. I'll bring the video camera for everyone to see the race. My daily driver vs. your race car. Quit playing games and lets race.

You were caught off guard by my offer to race you after you started this thread and rather than risk embarrassment, accepted quickly, thought about it over night and then declined. YOU quit playing games.

Since when does a car with full interior, all smog equip (including cats), A/C, is quieter than a bone stock Mustang and driven to the track qualify for being a race car Mr. Kettle with the trailer?

No, I will not accept your offer. You'll show up and race you or all the other fast LS1s that are going to Redline. I'll only agree to race you 100 miles from your home knowing you can't make it. And even if you left work early and agreed to meet me, I just wouldn't show for the 4th time in a row.

I'm trying to be objective here too, but it's difficult. I agree with Forrest, put up or shut up. Settle the E-war once and for all. I'm a True blue Ford guy, and this is embarrasing.

I offer the same reason for not going to Redline. An 80 mile one way drive in rush hour traffic on a 100 degree day in a turbo car that isn't the coolest running car in the world. It ain't gonna happen. He's the one with the trailer and he's only 25 miles from Denton if he leaves from work. Hell, he can do what I have to do. Just put the tires and jack in the back and change them at the track. He has a lot more room in his hatchback than I do in my 93 coupe.

Just a few points of clarification.

Las Colinas to Royse City - 50 miles
Las Colinas to Denton - 35 miles
Difference - 15 miles

Walnut Hill/75 to Denton - 35 miles
