Well it was saterday night, just doing a little testing/Breakin of the colt, it has about 300miles on it and my buddy (who helped in the build) and I had the itch to see what this turbo and motor could really do, so after installing the ITC and maft tuner in the car, we hooked up the datalogger and went for a cruise, still keeping at 9 psi no nitrous, we started to tune, he was driving while I was engaged with the datalogger and wideband, after a few quik spurts, we confirmed that we had no knock, decent timing and a very conservative afr of 10.6 :1, so now we are just cruising along, when do we see, a pack of angry sounding mustangs, as though they were in some blue angels formation, rumbling down the road, so we look at eachother and say unanimously its BOV salute time
, we catch up and see that they were 4 of them ......
An O3 cobra, a caged, fuel cell in the back , or at least a sump with a bunch of an fittings all over the place 86 or so mustang, and two GTs that definitely had exhuast and who knows what else,
Now we caught their attention, by giving them the salute a few times, but they did nothing, so now we are on a three lane stretch and guess what as faith would have it, its a stop light, look over to the older mustang and complimented him on his car, (seemed really cool), as we were talking, light turns green and all of them just blaze off, as though they were at a Pro- tree, leaving the little colt, with a bunch of question marks ............... so my buddy nails it and soon we are back with the pack and pulled up to another stop light, this time we were not going to take it , we were ready, light turns green, older mustang did not play, but the cobra did, he nails it gets an immediate 2 car leap, colt is going spinning like crazy, but hanging, shift to second, still spinning, but hanging with the cobra, shift to third, a little spinning,now reeliiiiiiiing in the snake, I could not believe it the little colt that could is now gaining and gaining, we are now at the guys door as I look over in awe and I think the cobra driver was in awe too, as soon as we nosed in front of him he shut down and so did we, slowed down to a light , he gives us the big thumbs up and tell him we are only a 9 psi, can't wait for 20
on the way home, the km 210 grenaded, stuck in the third, I think a shift fork is toast, so the awd tranny is being installed and awd transformation has begun
sorry for being so long I had to lay some back ground though
