I ran my car at the track.. other than the eBay HE and the Johnson pump.... The car is stock down to the tires. Which on the run, I let the car cool down to the point where the HE probably wouldn't of made a difference lol.. Here is the video.

I have yet to go back and get a decent run without the S/C shutting off, still having issues due to my outside air temp sensor (which I was having at this time also, but managed to get this run in without it interfering until I just passed the end.)

She is a strong one, amazing times for near stock e55.

Thanks man!

How do you guys keep it from going into second gear before launch?! My first run, that's what happened, had it in sport and tapped the "-" button on the back of the steering wheel a few times to make sure it's in first, but still pulled away in second, then downshifted into first...

Did that to me a few times when I was running at lights in Mexico too.

I never have a problem staying in first. dunno

I don't think I have that problem, but I usually shift into neutral for a few seconds then back into D just to be sure. Maybe you're stuck in C mode even though it shows S, or you just need to do a "sneaky ecu" adaptation reset. Congrats on a remarkable stock run.

Ah, I will do try the neutral thing next time. I did the ECU reset and it did it right after lol

I might go again this up coming Friday with some radials and my friend wants me to put on his 190mm pulley... I'm kind of scared haha.. What's the biggest pulley that someone has put on their car?

RedBullJnky

I'm going to run my car as soon as I get my drag set up. I only have a EC heat exchanger and Meziere pump. we'll see what it can do. If you are having problems with the supercharger shutting off, then you need to fix or change your cooling mods. A 190 will definitely create heat. I have not had any supercharger shut off since I installed my HE and pump.

...and your friend would be.....prodigymb?

Congrats on your times, but you are a little late to your party...

As for the s/c shutting off, are you aware of the bleeding procedure for the intercooler?

AKnight55

Yea, was going to say didnt someone just upload this video the other day.... Congrats on your time, 118 is flying for nearly stock.

You'll need a tune and better cooling to go with that.

cwmateiuc

Haha I didn't realize he posted that, no biggie lol. But it's another friend that wants me to run the 190 pulley.. Now I know for smaller pulleys you don't really NEED a tune. But, for a 190 I'm assuming it would by in my motors best interest?

IMO, a 190 would be a huge mistake and you would be slower in the 1/4. These motor cannot fully breath with the stock pulley let alone anything larger. Do some searches.
Headers, 82mm throttle body, fuel rail/injectors, and more cooling mods are needed before you would notice any benefit from that pulley...and of course, a tune.

I'll be there this Friday with my C63.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I have a 185, and I really doubt it's any faster than stock, just making a ton more heat....

prodigymb

aa saw you there. nice car man !!!

pearlpower

Outstanding run for a basically stock car on street tires.

Do an EC tune, even with your light mods it will give you great results.

Great 1/4 mile time! Thanks for the vid/
