Moved the A28 Bar a Little Higher!
Ran a 5.45s 60-130 this AM!
Still playing with these A28s to see how much is possible. Since last time I switched from 2860 cast to 2868 billets and added Turbo Mike's insulating blankets.
Awaiting word from Scott on verification...

Paulie,
I am not entirely sure since I am running on ECU and stock gauge craps out at 1.53 bar. I suspect I was at 1.6 or so...

ok thanks. Your car is running strong,do you know if they dialed down the torque of the A28's when it was tuned?

I don't think so. I am running the same tune I ran with the original A28s. There has always been a lot of torque there. But have run the tune for several years. The larger wheels actually hit later than the original wheels but they do hit harder.

The reason I ask is that the A28's seem to spool so fast that the initial hit could be iffy for the rods.
The fact you have been running them for a couple of years with no problems speaks volumes about your tune.

Very solid Mike. Just when we thought you couldn't squeeze any more power out, you seem to find it. Go out and get a 5.3x!

mike, i thought u were referring to 2868s all this time. never thought u were using 2860s. A2868s are call A28s. Mike, your times are untouchable for sure ( on both A28s n 2860s). BIG CONGRATS MIKE.
