The Pod GOD is back!!!

Well i went to santa pod today in a well known zs on this forum.

i thought it would do a 14.6, and my first run was a 14.6, but somthing i noticed is that the car felt gutless over 5krpm... a little more investagation showed the induction kit was disconnected from the silicone, on the 90 degree bend that comes of the throttle body.... i nipped to halfords but no hose clips, lucky for me i live 30 mins away so nipped hope fixed and went back...

Best time of the day....13.8 which as far as i know is a record for a nasp ZS... heck it suprised me... but as soon as i had the induction kit fitted back i knew it was going to be loads better, and it was just shows how restrictive they are.

anyway back to the 13.8, its only .3 of my best time with my old supercharged car, which was probably 30 kgs lighter... however this one does have cams and janspeed manis lightweight flywheel as well as many other mods

i never changed any settings for today either, tyre pressures were as i got them, as was everything else all i did was check the oil!!!

raised a few eyebrows at pod anyway, i hadnt been for nearly 2 years..

so i think i now have both fastest FI zs @ pod and fastest Nasp too

Blimey that's a good result, knew it was quick but 0.3 off a SC zed is impressive.
