Went to the track today with the new setup. Only got one run becuase the track was so crowded and I didnt feel like waiting anymore. Here is the slip info which unfortunately didnt post in the video becuase the guy I ran wanted "No Time"

60' - 1.89
330 - 5.061
1/8 - 7.666
MPH - 93.81
1000 - 9.915
1/4 - 11.79
MPH - 120.12

Mods are K@N Filters, removed secondary cats and resonator, LET 172mm Pulley and Mail Order Shelf Tune. I am very pleased with the results for a mail order tune and kudos to the guys (Jerry) at LET for the setup. For comparison the car went 12.17 at 118.6MPH w/o tune and pulley.

As you will see from the video and my 60ft, I babied it out of the hole as this was my first run on the radials and I wasnt sure how good they would hook. I have a scheduled track day on Dec 4th and I will be able to play with the setup alot more and definately beat my new best as I know for sure there is much more in there with a good launch.

Also what is the record for pulley and tune only as I will be shooting to break it on the 4th?!?

Congrats on u time. Car is running fast. Did u run m/t or street. Or any race gas?

very nice for basic stage 1 set up with basic exhaust mods.


I think the 172mm pulley is a great size.. since you ran 118 without a tune.. Anything bigger and you would gone back wards without a tune.

been there done that..

I read that differently... thought the OP was saying "without a tune and pulley" (i.e. on stock AMG tune and stock crank pulley) he ran the 12.1x @ 118. Maybe OP can clarify, I guess it can be taken either way.

Very nice, Can`t wait to see what happens when you hit it hard! Mid 1.75 short times are attainable from street tires..

The record I believe for a stage 1 in Tracshun with a 11.41, someone correct me if I'm wrong! The power of your pulley & tune in the middle of your run is what makes you quicker than me, with more track time you will get quicker & faster. Keep us all updated as we love to hear what a stage 1 kit will do for you at the track vs a stock car.

BFG Drag Radials...and a mixture of 100/93 octane

and to clarify my best run when the car had stock pulley and tune was 12.17 at 118.6 MPH. However the DA was much better when I ran that time as it was 34 degrees out as opposed to today when it was 60.

I am positive 11.5x's are attainable...but I will be shooting for the 11.41 record...

Also, today there was a bone stock E55 there running also..i caught one of his runs..it was a 12.9 with a 2.03 short time.

11.5, you can do it!

E55AMGGG04

Good runs pal. I think your going to do real good. Is that the only run you had?

Full Throttle

Congrats more proof how much effort it does not take to get our K55 in the 11's nice trap speed to

at atco you can do it but at etown no way. hey cant wait till the 2 beasts meet. my car is getting sprayed rite now and should have it back tue-wed.

hey you ran your stock time at atco no?

Juice1979

yes, my stock time was at atco on a track day when it was about 30 degrees out

Nice Run

Just let us know when you ready for that dyno tune

It's absolutely amazing what these cars will do with a simple and relatively inexpensive Stage 1 upgrade. I equate it to a BPU upgrade to a stock Supra.

As far as I know the Stage 1 record is still held by Tracshun at 11.41. He ran with a pulley and LET tune (thank you Wayne!). It was an incredible run. I filmed it and it can be found on Youtube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTR-tjCfgKI.

My car has the same setup and I, too, will be shooting for the record (perhaps at MIR on 12/5????). Based upon on street comparisons with Tracshun's car, I think I have a fighting chance. However, only time will tell.

prodigymb

how so? i ran a 11.78 at atco and 11.81at etown. same week, same setup, same street tire

etown used to be my favorite track, but i started enjoying atco more because i can get more runs in. last time i went to atco i got 5 runs in....and i got there at 7PM

oo btw that white e55 that runs no time at etown, runs the same time there as he does at atco. his current personal best is actually at etown

izzynyc

What happened to your car?

Hammer Down

or no upgrade at all only tires

Hammer Down

Time for some tuners to start upgrading stage 1's

Juice1979

Check the sig....and on that run the DA was about -200...

Hammer Down

Nice time, that one will be harder for me to reach! I'll get back to you!

skratch77

nice run on the 11.55, do you have the info for that run?What was your 60ft and what tires did you use?

juicee63

Your car is in the 11's?

I thought your K55 sat in a garage on 20"s
