finally got natalie dialed in she's running very smooth acrossed the board. i have had a few minor setbacks (miscalibrated map sensor, bad coolant temp, and badly located IAT sensor) but now i can say she's pretty well dialed in and running smoothly.

so travis and i got together thursday night and put the line locks on the car. we finished them up friday morning and now i can do some seriously huge burnouts without killing rotors or clutch. the process was suprisingly simple albeit time consuming it was however easy. the heat here in indiana was unreal but at least now i have line locks. i did however realize i'm going to have to relocate the momentary pushbutton if i want to shift into second gear while burning out. but that'll be for another time, if i ever do it.

pics and video to come soon

yep you gotta problem with that? you should see the viideo back when i was heal toeing it, now i can just line lock, and back before the fuel system upgrades, and before megasquirt, if i had to guess i have at least 20-35 more hp than back then.

heres a link to the video

YouTube - e34 bmw 527 stroker burnout




if i get around to doing it this week i'll be tearing out the old injectors and putting my new ones in then converting to e85, really i could do it right now (probably should seen as how i'm near empty). tuesday (next week)i plan on going to o'reilly raceway park - formerly IRP indianapolis raceway park, for the tuesday night test and tune and seeing what i do in a quarter, should be interesting

natalie lives on e85 now, changing the injectors was a simple matter of pulling the valve cover off and then wiggling the injectors out. she moves pretty quick and i'm averaging 23 city 27-28 highway, concidering this is a 7.0:1 compression engine i find that pretty awesome.

i also did a burnnout this past weekend with the linelocks sorry no vids or pics, the weather's been terrible or i don't have my camera with me when it's not. but i will get them up soon.

honestly i am pissed. i am disappointed. i am tired, i am exhausted. this intake that i made works - sortof. i have a vaccume leak on cylinder 1 that is rediculous. tomorrow i will attempt to fix it but it's bad. very very bad. whats more is that i managed to not take into account the length of the cruise control throttle cable so until i relocate it i won't have cruise control. furthermore the throttle linkage bumps into the coolant lines and the wiring harness making my life even more complicated and, cylinder one is to close to the thermostat housing. and beyond all of this i had an issue with the crankcase oil return tube not engaging so i poured oil all over the engine and have smoke galore.

heres a link to my youtube account i have many new videos and you should watch them all

the intake is not on the car anymore as i've already said but i felt the need to post pics of what it looks like. it is sexy. the thermostat housing requires modification and the throttle position sensor requires modification but it works.

the reason it's not on the car is the problem with the vaccume on cylinder 1 once i fix that all should be well

hmmmm, well lets see since the last post my tranny went bad so i put in a new one and removed the in tank pump, then installed the new clutch it's a stage 5 sintered iron race disc unsprung hub. it's stupid grabby. having removed the in tank pump the car is signifigantly quicker and has a better feel to it. aside from all that not much else, i;ve ordeered some more parts and will have pics to post when said new stuff goes on the car

key problem with plastic is that it's plastic, its less strong than aluminum, and far more likely to fail under high boost than aluminum
