Lmi Shaved .24 Seconds And Gained 2.37mph @ The Traps

I made it out to the track last night to do more testing and tuning since I installed LMI's Headlamp Intake

For those who know my car, the converter is set up for nitrous. Its looking for a big shot out the hole to stall with so my 60fts are never fantastic on motor launches.

My previous best was a 1.68 60ft - 11.39@ 121.00 mph. This was run @ PBIR with a DA of 800

Last night I ran her @ PBIR with DA of 917 with the only change being LMI's Intake tube. First run out resulted in this -

I added a few drops of few to account for more air to keep my AF right but I was amazed with the results. I never thought I would be this close to a 10 second motor pass without the use of either a different TQ converter or using the transbrake.

Chris, you have a solid product that made a huge difference!! Not everyone can claim these type of track results from an intake!

Im still waiting to see what she does for me on nitrous. I haven't broken my personal best times but I have seen a pick up in trap speeds of about 2-2.5mph at well. Still working on tune adjustments and launching, but expecting to see a little but of savings on nitrous as well. I will post up that info when I get my tune right.

The moral of the story..... if you race, you need one of these!!

Very cool! Now hit her with a 600 shot :)

lol....Im sticking with the 300 at least until Sept. VMP . I asked Dave Vasser to come back to Florida and help me finish the 500 shot tuning which Im hoping would be in November. Right now, Im having fun with my 300 shot, car runs solidly and feel like I have a good handle on things. just have to do a little more T&T on the 300 shot with this motor to get her dialed in just right.

Why not use the transbrake?

I still haven't hooked it up yet. Going to but plan on dropping weight off the car first before I start breaking shit :)

awesome stuff dan. i am not surprised you picked up some mph and drop a few tenths. the headlight set up is no joke for the more serious racers. i saw burls pick up .2 tenths at vmp immediately after swapping to the same LMI headlight set up. this kit is not for everyone, but if you are serious about racing, this is the best way to go.

this feels like a dumb question. Do you need to separated the clear lens with heat to do this install, or can you just drill a 4" hole and pull out everything you need to without breaking the sealant around the edge?
