    Proof, removing the ECU restrictions equals no peformance gain!

    Everyone enjoy's different things, different strokes for different folks. However, I will never be able to understand buying one of the world's fastest production bikes only to see how consistent you can get at being slow. I'm not a great drag guy, I'm not very consistent, and I'm certainly...

    Yes, another gearing debate!

    i was swb w/ 16/45, a shinko and ran mine past 12 almost right off the line. i had ran my quickest pass but was really gonna hammer it that time. i jumped off the back of the bike but was tall enough to hang onto the bars and not twist the throttle any further and ran the bike down...didn't...

    Exhaust ?

    Brock's AH header/mid with ACE tip. It's the definition of loud and obnoxious...it actually sounds good though too, I love it.

    Finally did it!

    As of now, he is just running totally stock everything, just throwing on a turbo and prob gonna run around 5 lb. of boost. Should make for an interesting ride on swb. I told him he needed to stretch it or he's losing a lot at the drag strip, but he don't want to spend the money. He'll let me...

    Finally did it!

    I'm not sure really. I would like to, funds are kinda tight. I quite my job and going back to college. At the same time I don't know, after seeing Bill and Karl eat it big time, that track worries me in a few spots. It's prob ok for us NA guys though. My brother is putting a turbo on his...

    Yahhh buddy! Now if Ruben would have got my seat covered by 5:00 this afternoon like he said, instead of closing shop before 4:45 when I arrived, I would be able to ride this weekend...Appreciate it Ruben, I'll make sure and send lots of references your way...:moon:

    Heck yah Steve, post up pics when you're done. :thumbsup: I would like the comfort of having my stock gel seat back on after riding around town on straight up hard plastic. Haha. Two things I didn't want to lose though was being able to get as low as possible, and also I hate sliding back in my...

    Finally did it!

    And if anyone is curious about an evil arm... I'm not sure what my mph was but with 17/45 gears I was showing 180mph the other day and it was smooth and straight as an arrow. no hiccups. The arm is clean too and looks like a well built piece

    As long as you don't laugh at the welding, I suck at welding. It's all good though, I didn't have to pay a ridiculously stupid ass amount like $550 for a DME so I could really care less what anyone else thinks, haha. (They are nice looking though and lightweight) I basically just cut the...

    Finally did it!

    So I finally stretched the Busa in search of some lower ET. I'm sitting right at about 70" with an Evil arm, a re-sprung and re-valved factory shock by Trac Dynamics, a Catalyst 10+ Supersport tail, 17/45 gearing, and Brock's fully adjustable links instead of the dogbones I had on it. Just...

    King of the Track @ Dallas Raceway June 23rd

    What time does all this start and when is it over?

    1/8 mile tonight

    I think you're around 900 ft. That's why the et is up from what a 1.77 would get me where I live. I'm at close to 3700 ft. lol. And no, 1.77 is not terrible, especially first time running swb. I can imagine it would be fun getting used to after riding stretched. I'm about to go 12 over with...

    1/8 mile tonight

    Not bad! What track are you at? I'm no guru but those et's look pretty nice for a 1.77 60 ft. You must be in some decent air. A shinko will do ya a bunch of good. You can bring that 60' on down quite a bit with a tire and some clutch control. I am running a swb 08 slammed/strapped with a...

    Track launch videos

    Nothing like some amateur drags. Couple videos of myself on the busa and a buddy on his turbo zx14. Both passes I had air shifter issues, you can hear me bangin off the limiter in the last part of the video. Best pass was a 9.89 @ 141.8. Best 60 ft. was a 1.63 and best 330 was a 4.27. Not...
