Went to the track in Montgomery, AL. Running 93 octane and between 20 and 23 psi. I raced against a bunch of car including a turboed civic, an old mustang, a highly modified z28, a well modified srt-4, and a modified vw gti. Won against all the cars with the exception of the 11 second flat z28 I actually saw his time before I went through the traps. The closest match was the turboed civic or the srt-4. The srt actually got a 12.9 on one of her passes.

My best for the day was a 12.5@112 with a 1.74 60'. This turbo is easily capable of 11s, I just need to get the right tuning, crank up the boost and put some cams in this bad boy.

 

Nice times and trap. What are your mods?

 

112 no cams and 93 !!! AEM ??

wow !! list mods please. Very fast times

 

No kidding, what mods are you running and do you have any dyno #'s?

 

Oh I thought I implied the bigger turbo when I said it was capable of 11s but I guess I didnt I guess there are a couple stock turbo evos doing 11s, but that is rare. I have a gt35r kit courtesy of AMS. Dynoflash and afc for tuning. That is why I mentioned upping the boost. I dunno maybe people run 25+psi on the stock turbo?

Oh the car dynoed 305whp on a dyno dynamics (~360 on a dynojet).

Definitely wasn't hitting any 112 with the stock turbo. More like 107-108 tops. Actually I take that back I ran 105 on the stock turbo. It was the other guy with a stock turbo that was doing 108.

 

Oh btw the 1.8t golf that ran got a 13.2, which was pretty impressive for his fwd. He choked when he went against me with a 13.7 though.

 

Just ran again at the more local track here.
Best run:
r/t --- .6994
60' --- 1.8097
330 --- 5.2431
1/8th --- 8.0375
mph --- 89.2
1000 --- 10.45
1/4th --- 12.4378
mph --- 115.98

 

I'm sorry, but that's horrible for an upgraded turbo.

 

Yea I know I should be 12 flat with that trap speed. You have to realize I don't have cams yet. With cams I will hit 11s @ 118-120 no problem.

 

What turbo kit are you running? Do you have a standalone engine management or flash?

 

its a gt35r and yes I know people run 10.5s with this turbo, but I dont have all the supporting stuff yet. I certainly dont have big enough injectors to run over 25psi (660ccs). I already hit a fuel cut I believe on the launch trying to run about 24psi. I have a dynoflash and a SAFC II for engine management.

 

Once you get the rest of mods and your car properly tuned, it will be a monster.

 

Yeah your on the right track, get those supporting mods and turn out some nice 11's or faster. Mid 12's on a not fully tuned car sounds pretty good to me.

 

Your car right now should hit 11s, your trap speed of 116MPH is good enough for 11s. So you unofficially drive a 11 second car. Also your car has loads of potential so you should be pleased with that, you are missing some key components, such as a stand alone and cams, just those two mods and you'll be deep in the 11s. If your ever to see 10s, there is something else your gonna have to do, and that is practice. I mean look at your place on my 12.99-12.00 list, your trap speed is atleast 3MPH higher than any other 12.4 second EVO on the list. So your gonna need to become a better drag racer.

 

Here is a high 11 second EVO time-
60' --- 1.712
330 --- 4.972
1/8th --- 7.672
mph --- 91.37
1000 --- 9.975
1/4th --- 11.950
mph --- 114.18

Here is yours-
60' --- 1.8097
330 --- 5.2431
1/8th --- 8.0375
mph --- 89.2
1000 --- 10.45
1/4th --- 12.4378
mph --- 115.98

Somewhere you are shifting wrong, I believe it may be the 1st-2nd-3rd shifts that are killing your times, like I said you need to practice.
