Those numbers suck lol...the Evo looks like 8681???
Never seen it setup like that before at the strip. Out here we do the dial in numbers on windshield and pass side window along with vehicle number.

if you must know...the times go like this.
Ron(evo)- saw him hit a 13.5
QNZ- i believe hit a 15.6ish
johnathansgalant- 15.6ish
whokilledhoughes- 15.015
all i wanted to do is break 14...but noooo...keapt hitting between 15 and 15.2
i guess once i go manual its in the bag...tranny takes time switching from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd...stays redlining for 2 sec before it shifts...damm automatics..

um...nope...and we are all at 15psi...with different set-ups that is...john and aaron where preatty much almost the same and i could not break 15...our trannys are robbing so much power from us...but i could tell you this...on a 40mph roll its a whole different monster...and put it this way...i have a 300 hp car...at the crank that is...i havent dynoed yet at 15 psi...but it should be in the area of 260+hp 280trq + to the wheels...so there you have it...i was dissapointed...from all the money spent...and i cant break 15s...i guess manual and head swap are in the works
-

my buddies bolt on stock fuel system 18psi SRT untuned ran a 13.1 on DR's at around 300ishwhp. I was expecting around atleast high to mid 14's out of the Galants i guess especially at 15 psi but DAMN I guess the automatic is really screwing you guys over. is everyone tuned?
some properly done NA bolt on Hondas run 15's =/
btw, whats everyones set-up?
hughes is EVO?
qnz 50 trim?
Johnathan ??
weight is probably another factor also.
-
SRTs are about 500 lbs lighter and 5 speed. hehe.
i think we just dont know how to drive and we dont know how to tune. I am "street tuned" by John on my evo ecu. It feels a bit off from when I had the HKS FCon and dynod at 260. We're all probably around 210 now
-
naw, I didnt mean it like that. Theres a really small margin of error with an auto on a drag strip. Not to mention how slow the autos on the Galants are. I'm sure if you guys were manual swapped or had a higher stall the passes wouldve been greatly faster. everyone still on the stock converter?
-
holy crap @ 15 psi? those auto trannies are ROBBING you guys....wth!
-
i c that u guys had fun...!!
long time that I havent heard about u paul..!!
-
man suxs i missed this one.... i would've ran..... but literally running with my feet i'd probably do better than my G lol... next time it's going to be me vs. julio (stock vs. stock) which is better...
-
how come i didnt here about this meet?? looked awesome
-
-
[DC_eightG_00], GAgalant_319...This was kinda spurr of the moment meet up... We will be back at the track after we work on our setups but for now Iam sure we are all back in the planning stages :)
PBIR holds test&tunes every wednesday/friday/and saturday so whenever you guys are down to roll let me know...

im using an evo 9 set-up. at 10 psi i ran 210hp and 240trq. with an average of 10hp and 11.5 trq gain per pound added from stock.. i got 110hp and 123trw stock. but i dont think i was runing 15psi. my car is weird. sometimes i hit 12psi sometimes 13.. ive ran 15 few times..my boost controller has a loose hose on it so my boost is not consistant..i notice that today when i touched the hose and it came off....i dont know how much psi i was running at the track due to i keapt blowing the vacuum off the gauge from all the pressure as it went under boost. but i know i wasnt at full 15. i was probably runing 12. fixed the hose today and im hitting straight 15. everytime. now i can break that 15 mark and get into the 14s.
ill be going to homestead raceway in a couple of days to give it a try again to see what my numbers are before i start collecting for the manual swap.
but to answer your question our cars are COWS and stock auto trannys rob us when it comes to performance. i bet i could take it to low 14s once i do the swap and perfect the tune. but we shall see. i might not have fast 1/4 mile times, but i love driving my car and the effect i get on people when they stare at me cause the car looks so damm sexy ;-).

Dude, buy some hose clamps, or at least some zip ties. You should not be having that problem. I ran 22psi on my car and had no problems blowing off vacuum or intercooler pipes.
You guys need to take your cars to a professional tuner and get them tuned proper. When I got my car tuned, it was like a new beast. You need to get on the dyno and have a professional tuner that is familiar with Mitsubishis and Evo setups, tune your cars.

the white galant what engine have

Damn i missed this meet, lets make sure next time u guys let us all know so we can go up
