    Race Ready 7M

    I contacted Snow Performance that makes "Boost Juice" that's in the tank and I was given the material safety data sheet that says it cannot be made non poisonous and a flash point of 480 degrees F. The City of Portland that operates PIR track still doesn't want drivers on the Road Course having...

    Car failed Tech inspection for fuel in the cockpit?! They suggested as it is a hatchback, I put the fuel outside the car, near the fuel tank. The H2O/Meth tank is five gallons. I had this thought of duct tapping the tank to the roof! That's outside the cockpit. LOL

    Tomorrow is another track day and I'll have a chance to realize the difference over what I experienced last week, before the H2O/Meth kit.

    H2O/Meth kit installedPower is consistent after the H2O/Meth.:) This will provide reliable power that will alow me to drive the car more consistently. The HP average is 395 and Tq average is 352 ft lb.

    Now adding this item: AEM H2O/Meth kit, and having the leak in the Koyo racing rad, stopped. It leaks from the drain plug. I'm having it welded to seal it tight.

    1300 Kg Track SUPRA project

    Thanks for the help. I'll be looking to buy some "Track Day" tires for next season. I use the BFG lineup for tires, so I may go with the BFG Rival.

    Next on the list is improving the cooling on the brakes. Phillip at VIP Performance is going to put the Supra up on the rack and start designing new cooling for the rears and re routing the front ducting to make it more efficient at cooling to improve its stopping power.

    I'm looking into replacing the stock H2O pump with an electric pump, so that the cooling system can not experience cavitation above 6K RPM. This car is to be used on a road course and the red line will be 6.5K with the engine normally turning at between 4K and red line for 20 minute stints.

    I see from your post #361, you're using the Kumho tire. Is that their V710 slick?

    Which brand of slick do you use on the track?

    This is now installed and working WAY better than the HK$ EVER did. No more compressor surge under light to moderate load when modulating the throttle. The gear shifting and power are both way smoother too thanks to the reaction time and speed that the valve is capable of!

    Rear brake pads are below 50%, so I'm opting to go Carbon/Kevlar for the rear replacement pads. Porterfield http://porterfield-brakes.com/categories/Brake+Pads/Racing+Brake+Pads.html makes them for our stock calipers. I have a set on the front Wilwood brake calipers and they have lasted...

    It's a BOV, but one that is fully adjustable for the car's problem. It will replace the HK$ BOV.

    Here's what's going on my Supra...Enough with the compressor surge at the track during throttle modulation at speed! It's a Synapse diverter valve that is known to do a better job for track purposes than the HK$ at adjusting out that type of compressor surge.

    Thank you! I appreciate your sharing what you've done with your car, especially the info on Mega Squirt.

    The car handles very well at speed and using the rear wing it is more stable at speed than it ever was w/o it. I'm planning on getting a custom engine under tray and body under trays, running down each floor pan from front to rear wheel wells, to smooth out the air under there.

    Me too! They're living well, so far... They're all well fastened to the stock mounting points.
