Altitude coversion chart wrong??? or is my car just wierd.

Se7eN_RSX · 06-14-2006, 02:36 PM

I was looking at the altitude conversion chart and read that the correction for 2600 ft was .9692... I ran 14.75 @ 95.5 MPH...without the correction.

with the correction i ran a 13.78 @ 96.53 mph..unless i did it wrong..

all i have done to my car is a DCRH, SRI, axleback ( does nothing)

that time has to be wrong...right? I bought my car used, so i dont know the history of it, but it doesnt redline at 8100 like it should if its stock, it redlines at 8600 rpm, the vtec dip is eliminated but pronounced because of the SRI..i'm wondering if my ECU isnt stock? i mean how would you know right? I figured the 8600 rpm redline is a dead giveaway that somthing been done the the ecu, but maybe i'm wrong.

If that conversion chart is right somthing else has to be done to my car to run that kind of et..

14.75 @ 95.5 MPH --> seems about right

13.78 @ 96.53 mph --> way off

You multiply your ET by the correction factor in order to get your "corrected" time at sea level.

14.75 * .9692 = 14.29

I don't know where you got 13.78 at.
