After 8 runs and finally settling on 25psi tire pressure... All launches were spinning all 4 tires, the night ran out before continuing...
the slip below is at 30psi boost... My "sponser" showed up in the pit, grabbed the laptop and brought it up 32psi, but couldn't get a clean pass at that level... signs of clutch slip(I believe) became a bit more evident.

Nice ob. Need some stickier tires! Or clutch. Or whatever. Looks fast as fook and you're still spitting flames!

Nice. Tires and clutch are doing their job well, 1.7 is a darn good 60' time for such a heavy car. Just need to get that bitch dyno tuned for moar powar

The small signs of clutch slippage showing up on a few logs...
Top graph, black line, highlighted... RPM's don't irregularly ramp up erratically in this fashion after catching traction.
This is 2nd gear of that 12.73 run.

My 2 conclusions:
1) Southbend Stage 4 Dual Ferramic sucks
2) Steering rack leak can be making it's way in there making this slip as it's not a repeatable event
My Course of action in the meantime:
Drive it until it's fully worn cuz there's no way in hell I'm dropping the tranny to replace the rack only to find out that IT wasn't the cause... So I'll be enjoying it at it's current tune, work on my launch and shifting until clutch replacement time. At that point I'll do both rack and clutch.

just got done with my buddies urs4 and the injector wiring was terribly beat up in places. Had to replace the connectors and short lengths of wire on #2 and #3. Might be wiring?

wouldn't doubt it... what were the symptoms? The plug on that injector is getting current in my case... identical readings from all other connectors as well...

Wiggling the wiring would make the injector work and not work, would gain momentary contact and momentary no-contact.
If you're getting proper reading I'd switch injectors around and see if it follows the injector. If that's not it I'd say ECU, but they're all getting proper readings so wtf?

you can use a screwdriver to the ear as a stethoscope, and see if that injector is clicking or not, and as suggested above move the injector and see if the noise follows, also what about coils?
