haha David thanks for your enthusiasm, it's infectious I'll make a post there in a few minutes, thanks for the reminder about that list.

I can't wait to get started with the new turbo, slicks and who knows...maybe I'll see what it'll do with some real gas much more to come!

 

DAYUM chris good stuff man and congrats. Thats freaking impressive on pump gas/stock ecu

 

That is just AWESOME!! Congrats on making a killer run with stock ECU/MAF and PUMP.. just SICK! Talk about pushing the stock MAF to the limits..

 

thanks freddy, anyone that knows me from the Stealth/3000GT days knows I'm a bit stubborn about using the stock ecu/mas and know quite a few tricks about how to make them work...the crazy thing is that I haven't even started doing anything fancy with it yet. No modding aside from a little glue to keep the honeycomb from being the turbo's next victim

 

Damn, Nice work Mellon!! 9's is around the corner on Stock ECU.. Thats nuts !!

Mike

 

thats so awesome!

be careful with the rearend though

 

Mellon freaking rules!

 

I know you'll be right there with me soon House!

p.s. I got some track condition info etc... adding it to the first post

 

WOW! Chris, I'm damn proud FOR you. You've stuck with your conviction and proven what can happen when you set a goal. What you're doing is moving the stock ecu/mas bar to a level that makes anyone jealous. Very nice job of not only the tune, but the driving as well. Can't wait 'till we see each other again and have the opportunity to BS over a beer. Congratulations on a job VERY WELL DONE!

 

Lol I tried to get him to put at least that heavy *** tool box in the bed of my truck that was parked right next to him.

"nope, this is how I drive it every day to work"
Word for word. No cooling tricks, weight removal of any sort...Always just like it is driven on the street every day. We were fvkin pumped on that run.

 

This is AMAZING! Especially how much it still has in it.

 

Mellon. Winnar.


Sick!

 

Great job Chris! That is seriously impressive!

Curious as to how your IDC's are with the 1000cc injectors. With 1200's I'm ok on pump, but start getting up there on race gas.

 

thanks Tom and likewise, our visit was rediculously short at the shootout with everything going on. I cannot wait to get back up there next year. I want you to know I've been living vicariously through you/Tony and the other guys that have been flat demolishing the competition this year and it's been a real inspiration to me and I'm sure so many others. The fact that you and David Buschur in particular share so many secrets to help the community as a hole go faster is greatly appreciated.

So many amazing things have been developed this year and the trickle down effect is what we're seeing now, it was just a matter of time before everything aligned for me. I certainly played my part in this run but I think even more important is choosing the right brand and combination of parts. Anyone can look at my mod list and see that it's straight up off the shelf Buschur parts that anyone can buy just like I did...I think that speaks volumes. I tune a ton of cars and hands down the BR cars make more power and I don't even have to struggle to get them to perform, it's easy as pie. I've had a few with random parts that surprised me here and there but they are few and far between.

I know I sound like a fanboy and that might rub some people the wrong way due to their alliance with other shops but I have always given credit where credit is due when I see it regardless of what brand is being used.

 

Chris, that's kind of you to say, but there are several of us that just do our own thing. I started out with no pre-conceived ideas of what parts to use. We found out, as you did, that the selection of parts becomes critical. ALMOST the same just doesn't cut it. YOU'RE to be commended for doing as much for the advancement as anyone. Probably more when it comes to inspiring the stock parts guys. Congratulations again and when we meet again, the beers on DAVID.
