Finally a race day without rain last Friday, I took my slightly modified 9000 Aero to the track.
K&N open air filter
Dawes hybrid boost controller set at 16-17PSI
Forge BPV w/ green spring
94 octane fuel
My three best times, and one run without the MBC:
60' 2.596 2.712 2.712 *
330' 7.054 6.952 * 6.898
1/8 10.349 10.238 10.222 10.324
MPH 75.3 74.97 76.06 71.79
1000' 13.128 13.035 13.039 13.248
1/4 15.445 15.360 15.377 15.670
MPH 97.24 96.99 * 93.28
I was having significant tire spin with the MBC, even in 2nd gear. If I could control that, I could probably take a half second off. You can see that the first 330' was quicker without the MBC, but the MBC really helps once traction is regained.
This is in Calgary, which is about 3200ft above sea level. As comparison, here are the times of the cars I ran against. Of course, mods to these cars are unknown, except for the Mustang which was stock.
Vehicle 1/4mi MPH
VW GL 16.596 *

Chevy ? SS 15.594 *
Lexus LS 430 15.347 *
