Well, I am so glad too....that makes two of us. It is awesome to be home. I've had a couple weeks now to get used to being a dru...er....back to the states and I'm better now. I'm going to go outside and put on this motor mount now...now that I'm out of red wine that is.

Well I suppose that's better then owning a turbo 3L and running what... 13.9's
You may be making a heck of a lot more power then me but even at the end of a 1/4 mile straightaway you're still behind me. I won't even get started on adding corners to the course.
I never intended my car to be fast in the 1/4 mile. It's always been geared for handling and road racing. I consider myself a much better road course driver then drag strip driver.
BTW have you hopped up the Volvo yet?

You can take off from a dead stop pretty good, but don't even think that will save you from me in the twisties! You won't be able to accelerate out of the corner into short straights the same way. Besides, I'm a pretty darn good road course driver and the car is more than capable with the current suspension setup. It is pretty well balanced after all, the BAT euro kit. That, along with the new tires I put on. Those are killer. I am amazed at how much more grip a new set of tires with a little more rubber provide. Besides, I have to get a multi-stage boost controller to stop wheelspin. NO other alternative. Honestly, I need a lower pressure spring in my wastegate and then use an external boost controller. I'm still waiting on the Volvo to be delivered. It has been on order for 3.5 weeks now and I'm getting a bit impatient!

Now you are thinking with simplicity.
It is much easier to create an rpm or signal driven "vacuum leak" to raise the boost pressure.
Matter of fact Mitsubishi had a solenoid setup in the Conquest. That had a 3 way vacuum solenoid that limited boost in first gear. (i.e. whenever it was energized)
I just happen to have that solenoid in my electronics cabinet. I forget off hand but it was about a 3-5psi cut in boost from the factory 10psi. It was accomplished by offset pressure through the 3 ports.
I removed it when I went to a 2 port opposed vacuum diaphramed wastegate actuator. (internal wastegated turbo)

Close, I did get to a 15.012 @ 90.58. I was dying to get into the 14's, then I bought a 6... hehe
I think I can beat this come April.
I ran a 15.8 @ 90 mph with a 2.5 60"
I'll see if I can dig up my timeslips.
I WILL BEAT THIS TIME! I forgot to realize that tomorrow I am installing my SVT LIM and Tb...and I didn't have the SVT upper when I ran last time.

I think you'll also gain traction without the secondaries in there and a larger TB. Whenever the secondaries pop open, the tires go BANG-ZING and try to spin off of the rim now, don't they? First and second gear? A slower/smoother transition to mid range torque will help a TON!
As Greg and I have always said, "Baaaah, secondaries!"
BTW, how does the Conquest control that solenoid? Microswitch on the linkage, or a timer circuit?
