i am running jwt ecu, and i have been driving the car everyday, now have 1200+ miles on the motor since the swap. i am also thinking that with the timing off(maybe 7-8 advanced) and stock echausts on a hot day, that might be the reason i was soo slow. saturday needs to hurry up and get here. i dont know if i will see triple diget trap speeds, but i think it is possible. now that i have turbo back 2 1/2 exhausts, it feels alot better.

14.2@96, kills included a mustang cobra, a cocky z-28 owner who will never be beat by a 4 banger, and he would have beat me but his clutch slipped, and a 2nd z28.

The JWT chip is always tuned to run on 15 degrees base timing (unless it's specifically tuned for something else, such as C4 cams or something). So if you have a JWT chip, set your base timing to 15. Let it do the rest.
you should get a fuel pump too. ive know of 3 stock fuel pumps to die with in a month of swapping in a det, two ended up in blown motors. i guess its just too much strain on the stock unit. look at it this way: its cheap insurance and if you upgrade now you wont have to later and it doesnt require reprogaming the ecu. personally i went with the venom 300zx pump for $170. its supposed to be good to 500hp and it drops right in.

Originally posted by TUNED200 well i have times from today. remember it was 90+ degrees outside, i have tmic, oem rear exhausts and street tires and got a 14.75@93. 1st is useless, 2nd is better. i need slicks and my exhausts.
You don't need slicks yet. I'm running on my stock crap ass tires. 175/ 70-13's at 25psi, and i have basically the same mods that you do. At the time of this slip all that was done to the car was intake/ exhaust with cat/ JWT ecu on stock boost.
As you can see my reaction times are shit beause I don't care about them. I just sit at the line and concentrate on my launching. Try feathering the clutch a little, and try to not lead foot it so much in 1st gear.
Oh no, I didnt' think you were trying to be mean or whatever. I was just basically saying that your correct in what you were saying, hence me shutting up cause i was wrong. Oh well... sorry for the confusion.
