| 0-60mph in a Merkur - Click HERE for Original Thread |
| fugumerkur |
I figured my horsepower to be 190 using an equation another merkur enthusiast and I found online.
Its an estimate and not bad seeing as how I am running:
-Stock ecu (175 hp fuel curves)
-Stock fuel pressure
-194 lb fat ass driving
-2 subs and amps
-Stock Vam
and worst of all,
STOCK BOOST!
(oh yeah, this is with winter tires in -15C weather.!) Not excuses, the truth! Variables if you please

thats the thing, its goddamn well untuned.! with some screwin around I could get that much more out of it.! BUT WHY, i am getting rid of the VAM altogether.!
:asshole:
No worries though, I will be upgrading soon I dislike the ECU and VAM setup more than you know. |

I'll give you points for attempting it in the winter...
Have you had it at the track yet? |
|
|
| fugumerkur |
no track yet. I am patiently waiting though.
I would actually prefer to have a timeslip than a video though!
I just have to wait I guess. It will be an interesting year for my car though. |

Ice on road way. Dash speedo proves nothing.
A pinto can do 0-60 in under 6.5 seconds in winter on icy roads. Speedo reads 60 mph, but your true travel speed is not.
Chit man, I once did 140 km/hr in a parking lot gas station Sure I was trying to get up an icy hill and my front tire was flat, it was a RWD car and my true travel speed was 0.00.
Show me something with the background moving.
The engine sounds nice though! :thumbup: |

oh yeah, that reminds me.! That was another performance mod! The 3" exhaust!
Whoops.
Traction was no prob. look at my speedo when I started you can tell I had traction. The asphalt was bone dry.
I found this interesting compilation too.!

Nice vid, love the blow off valve!
Here one I did last summer, was 10-60mph cause my drag radials were spinning to much, anyways you can hear the blower start when I get into it at around 5 second mark.
lightning run
Make some more in the summer when ur tunes done. |
