    There are two schools of thought on setting up your injectors:

    That your AFR readings should match your Fuel Map, then get Fuel Trims as close as p […]

  • Deleting the cruise control system on our DSM’s is very common within the community. Most people do it to clean up the engine bay, but that is not the only benefit of deleting cruise control. The cruise control is […]

  • Injector Duty Cycle (IDC) is a very common term when tuning our DSM’s, or any fuel injector platform for that matter. IDC is an aftermarket value to represent the amount of time a fuel injector is energized (on, s […]

  • The first couple of weeks in Ohio was eventful as work was pretty steady. But, there were many times where I was at the house we stay at and wished I had Poison Ivy there with me to play with on my down time. The […]

  • The last month has been…interesting to say the least. A little bit of bad and good news. Not so much as bad, more along the lines of unexpected and unplanned. What do I mean? Well, I will tell ya.

  • It was a long 4 or 5 months. Too long to go without hearing #PoisonIvy run or at least drive. The last time I drove her was done without a clutch at all. Literally, the clutch pedal did nothing because a couple […]

  • Over the last month, I have spent a lot of time searching the pro’s and con’s of running a locked center differential. The center differential determines how much power is applied front to rear. Locking the cen […]

  • I always find myself thinking of new, unique things that I can do to my 1G build. In the modern age, it seems like all DSM’s are built the same. Clean, nice paint, a good drop, and a decent set of wheels. Which is […]

  • Yeah, you got it man. It is definitely something that people don’t think about very often. And when they do, they only think about the obvious heavy items like the front and rear bumper support for example.

    The little stuff is where you can really benefit from. There’s only so many heavy items that you can remove from your car. There are…[Read more]

  • I have been asked numerous times, most recently on one of my YouTube videos, on how I wired up my push button start. You yourself may have found that when searching exactly how to do this, it is very difficult to […]

  • I know, it’s been forever since I have updated Poison Ivy’s project log. It’s been a pretty busy period in life between my medical problems and the dirt race cars. But, I haven’t forgotten about ivy. In fact, the […]

  • Weight Reduction can be a game changer if treated respectively. It can easily be the difference between a 10 second car vs. a 9 second car as it directly affects the vehicles overall acceleration. The rule of […]

    • Yeah, you got it man. It is definitely something that people don’t think about very often. And when they do, they only think about the obvious heavy items like the front and rear bumper support for example.

      The little stuff is where you can really benefit from. There’s only so many heavy items that you can remove from your car. There are dozens and dozens of little stuff that can be removed. A pound here, a few here, “It Adds Up”.

      I really want to think of a definitive way to show just how much less various parts have to work. Like the powertrain and drivetrain. Really, there is no way to show the difference before and after. But, I would imagine it makes a very large impact on the reliability of your car and the parts on it. Like I said before, at the very least, it is more efficient.

    scheides tested, ecu-guru approved! Still, be careful.
    Also, it may (and likely will) change, I’ll try and bump the thread with ‘updated’ as I do so…this is a work in progress!

    Converting your evo8 to […]

    Well…we finally picked up the Lias Chassis yesterday. And this time, it wasn’t covered in 30″ of snow so we really got the see every detail of the car. It is quite an impressive machine and was built very well. […]

  • It’s a nice feeling when you are building a race car and things start going back together fresh and new, especially when racing season is less than two weeks away. But, we still have lots of work to do and there […]

  • Over the weekend, my Dad tagged me in a post in a dirt racing group on Facebook of a post with a guy selling another IMCA Modified. The car in the ad was a car that I watched in the early years of my racing […]
