Re: Track results, AFR heads

Subject: Re: Track results, AFR heads

I'll agree 100% that the tests were conclusive as to the gains from the AFR heads. One can speculate all day about the 60' times effect on the pass, but as stated above the AFR's were quicker from segment to segment on the track, backing up the dyno results.

I am impressed at your success this early in the tuning process. I originally thought (when on the TFS heads and until I read this thread) that your 60' times were traction limited, rather than power or launch technique limited. I'm sure with some tuning of timing and fueling in the right areas and learning the launch style that the combo likes you will get to where you want to be.

As a side note, I wonder what the drop down rpm is when you bog. If it isn't too low, sounds like that would be the perfect time to hit the spray switch and not blow the tires off. Maybe you are set up more for nitrous already then you know you are??!! And since your car is a street car maybe that bog will give you that much more traction on the street?? Lots to consider, but, no more need to consider which heads to run!
