The new DA is very cool. Thanks for the tip Brancky.

Very cool new feature For draggy ! I can only dream of such low DA's

 

[Whiteybird]

Haven't had a chance to actually toy around with settings or anything. Windshield washer meth, unheated DR's, and 50* weather. Hoping I can take time this week or next and fine tune everything. Mods are JB4, WMI, SSR pipes, JTig CAI. RWD.

Post some pics and info of your windshield washer Meth setup. Maybe not this thread but post!
Also update your dragy app to show DAs.

Its just the BMS kit. I was just referring to the washer fluid + heet mix I was running. It has an actual 80/20 mix now, I've yet to log anything with it though.

I feel your pain! 6826ft DA here over the weekend. And yes, very cool new feature for the draggy. I wish everyone understood how much altitude effects times!

 

[James5623]

I feel better about this time, but clearly doing something wrong with launch..

There nothing wrong with your launch the problem is your 5692 FT above sea level lol. Look at that DA 14731 ! Welcome to my world of mile high 0-60 runs in the high 4.9 sec range to 5.15 sec.

I’ll take it. I thought for sure it was a me problem.

Yup I agree.

I’ll take it. I thought for sure it was a me problem.

I think there's a conversion somewhere on line where you can take your time and your DA and calculate what it would be in like like Chicago or Washington vs Tonkas 0-60 @Tonkabob might know.

 

[Tonkabob]

Yup I agree.

There is a conversion for 1/4 mile times. Maybe you could use that to estimate 0-60 as well, half the difference maybe?
DA Calculator - Density Altitude Calculator - DragTimes.com.
Just dont go negative on the DA or the calculations start adjusting in the wrong direction.

I was just going to say that’s great for a 2.0! before I saw your altitude. Still good for a 3.3 with that DA, but suggest putting your description in your signature so people don’t repeatedly ask you the trim level, etc.

Shaved another 0.1 of a second of my best time this morning after installing better tyres on the car earlier in the week. pretty happy with the result as it was 5am and its cold in Melbourne at the moment around 10 degrees (48 Fahrenheit).
I'm installing a set of K&N intakes on the weekend and hopefully get her down around the 4.2s. might be hard to achieve in winter over here.

Cold tires might be an issue, but colder intake temps make more power. I am still unclear as to how aftermarket air intakes, which draw hot air from the engine compartment, make more power than factory set-ups, which draw colder air from outside. I know they claim a less restrictive flow (marketing hype?), but that should be offset by the higher intake temps, which usually make less power. Let us know if the K$N is the ticket, please.

 

[Tonkabob]

D-C has some nice cool temps down under moving into the #14 spot with his RWD.

Where do you get your E85 from?

 

[D-C]

Cold tires might be an issue, but colder intake temps make more power. I am still unclear as to how aftermarket air intakes, which draw hot air from the engine compartment, make more power than factory set-ups, which draw colder air from outside. I know they claim a less restrictive flow (marketing hype?), but that should be offset by the higher intake temps, which usually make less power. Let us know if the K$N is the ticket, please.

I will let you know mate, similar conditions next week so should be a good test

United Service Station, some of there branches sell it I use the one in Mitcham.

This has been explained dozens of times in multiple threads... Yes cold air makes more power but not more than the very restrictive stock intake box with panel filters. The volume of air is drastically less than large high flow cone filters and the extra volume easily offsets the slightly warmer air. Most people’s IAT only increased by a few degrees with intakes so the intercooler takes most of the extra heat out of the equation.

Multiple tuners and many individuals have proved gains of 15-25whp from just intakes and it’s the best $100 mod you can get for our Stingers.
