It is looking like my rear Dejon intake pipe (partially) popped off my rear 13T's compressor inlet. Wouldn't be the first time either.

Seems pretty consistent too. My Dad's friend put a ton of money into his race only car to hit 12.0 lol He has a car in the 9's now but still..
I can't believe your car and clutch hold that many clutch dumps. I assumed you did the quick slip but you just dump it and it's fine? I would LOVE to be in the car when you do that haha And you just bought a OEM disc? Why not use the RPS disc?
Also, if your going to 3SPA let me know. I don't really have the money for gas (tuition went up, needed a new driveshaft, etc.) and don't know if the car will make it but if your going I'll probably try and make it out.
Flat black is looking good also : )
Make another post once you get some race gas in there!
Thanks Louie. Yeah I just rev and dump ... seems to work out well. I got an OEM disc because the disc that comes with the RPS Max 'full face' kit is basically just a marked up OEM unit anyway ... I was considering picking up a 6 puck but now I really don't see the need.
I'll probably head down to the 3SPA thing (two weeks right?) - if there's anything I can help you with to get your car good to go, let me know.

Thanks man. Wishing I had that JDM gearing though ... that 3-4 shift right at the end really sucks.

Does this car have an aftermarket fuel pump? Are you on stock motor mounts? Going solid may help your front wheelspin.
Yep it has a hotwired Walbro 341, full set of Maximal solids. The intrax springs really compress in the rear, so they may be unloading the front causing the wheelspin ... who knows.

Well I'm pretty sure I'm going so hopefully I'll see you there! I've never been in an 11 second car haha
I don't really have anything to work out except find a cheap Evo DV to get rid of this SSQV, put my TC brace on, and pressure test again. The car also runs really rich (at least at WOT), like .99-1.01V's, which I have no clue why but it drives fine.
About the clutch, so you just bought the RPS pressure plate? That's a good idea if so, I didn't know you could buy just the pressure plate.

I'm still out there preaching that subframe bushings can go bad and cause wheel hop. If motor mounts using the same rubber can cause such havok, there is no reason the subframe bushings wouldnt do the same to a lesser degree.

Thanks man.
With your 450s, I hope they work out for you. Just doing a couple calcs, to match my 95% IDC @ 40psi base with 550cc injectors, you'd be looking at running about 54psi base pressure with 450cc injectors. I think I remember Matt M. saying he has run way more rail pressure than that so I think you'll be fine!

Congrats again!
Haha yeah for sure man. We can go for a spin. You sure your SSQ isn't leaking? That'd explain your rich conditions for sure. Hopefully the Evo BOV fixes things for ya.
And yeah with the clutch, just an RPS Max pressure plate.

I personally would not recommend that.
At only 15psi of boost, you're looken at 69psi of fuel pressure in the stock rubber lines, gaskets, o-rings... That's pushing it a bit.
