JHM B6 b7 s4 supercharged stage 2

[justincredible]

Kickass times!

I got a back up automatic transmission if any of you manual guys want to switch.

10MPG thanks for building such a cool car I don’t think we thank enough of us that really push the envelope. 1.7 60 foot. Come on that’s hard for a manual car to get. Denrs4 showed that his car was really over powering the tires you could hear it. Denrs4 if it’s your second time at the track and a stage 1 RS4 that’s good to see you out there. If the automatic car got a 1.7 60 and went 115 with you spinning and missing a gear if you got even close to that mph that would be good.

10MPG, that pass is great man. It is really good to see such a low 12 second pass with an automatic S4.

If you were not icing the intake manifold between runs then I would start. These cars really like a cool intake manifold. It is hard to cool off the SC on a B7 but if you can get some ice down there then that helps too.

Yea guys my engagement w the 5R clutch wasnt very easy, i was spinning at first gear when i let it go the clutch and i kept missing the 3th gear here and
There, and also i think going down the track w my after market wheels wasn’t a very good ideia, 19x10 w 275 v12 tires, my best time was 12.4 and i think if i run my stock wheels w some more soft rubber tires i will go 12 sec or under, but I need to practice my launch w the 5R clutch kit!im happy over all, i will try again w my stock wheels on and also im going to work on my launch!:)one thing for sure the 5R JHM clutch did not slip at all:)

the wheels probably weren’t hurting much. They’re reasonably light for their size.

Don’t you have a tune with launch assist? Talk to Kurt. You need that.

Post a couple of your timeslips please. Would like to see them.

Denis, I wouldn’t worry about the wider wheels and tires. What RPMs were you leaving at? Saki makes a good point about getting Kurt to get you launch assist. I love it in my car and it should have come with the tune originally in my opinion.

If you have a vagcom or someone locally will let you borrow one then I would log how long it takes you to shift. A few people had me look at that and they pointed out that I needed to improve there. Make sure to have the turbo button pushed to get more accurate readings.

EDIT: Denis, you have the JHM STS right? What reverse push down spring are you running? I had to switch to the stiffest gold spring because I kept pushing down when shifting, especially from second to third.

thanks for all the tips, and yea i have jhm trio,so i do have the launch control,but Dan was telling me at the day that i should feather the gas pedal a bit more and not push the pedal all the way to the bottom when launching,that way i would not spin and i would have a better kick, that day also the track wasn’t very well prepared, and it rained very light, but if i get my launch better i will go 12 and under, and thats my second time dragging my car, the first time i did was about 1 year 1/2 ago and i only went once because I blew my clutch on the first run!ill get it:)

I don’t understand… You have launch control but weren’t using it?

There’s no feathering anything with launch assist. You just go. Bang.

The way I read denrs4’s comment was that he was told not to use launch assist and instead to feather the gas so as not to have excessive wheel spin due to the badly prepped track but maybe I misunderstood.

Oh, that clears it up

nice. I haven’t entered your time yet. I want it to have an 11 handle. I’ll enter this 12.0 and wait for the 11

Thats awesome. Keep it up. I always wondered how a TIP tuned car would run with a blower. I wanted to be one of the first. Too late for that lol.

[b6dolphins4]

That 60’ tho!

[justincredible]

I just realized how awesome this is this deserves it’s own thread.

Congrats! Great time and nice improvement. I bet there’s more left on a table. I hope next time we’ll see 11s hehe
