whats your thoughts?

Check this out:
http://www.turbomirage.com/2007/03/9...uccis-16g.html



I honestly dont see how that is remotely possible with a 16g and only a 60 shot. I think its def doable with more than a 60 shot though. Isnt any of the 16g's that are available for DSM's smaller than the ones we have on our cars?

I thought real fast DSM's with 16g's are barely in the 10's?

Trapping 141mph in this pass shows he is making serious power but is that attainable with a 16g and only a 60shot? The car has also trapped 143.9 which is even more crazy!!


The only possible solution i have to this is that the car weighs close to nothing. I also think he is using the same turbo that buschur sells as the 20g-LT or others as the EVO Green turbo. Not exactly a normal 16g but i guess its classified as one.


If thats the case there are gonna be some fast *** EVO Green guys this season!!


Whats your thoughts?

I think the key here is the weight difference. Remove 1000lbs, and you can trap another 10mph right there. The 60-shot gives at least 100whp (maybe 120) for another 10-12mph.

Weight is def a huge factor. I wonder how much its actual weight is?

I believe his Race Weight is somewhere around 2200lbs. Read all about the History of the car here... http://www.joebucci.com/Goodwill1.html

With all the weight reductions and the pretty well built engine that seems pretty realistic for that car. I have read about this car in one of the Tuner mags and he is damn fast.

That explains it. 2200lbs is rediculously light. Pretty much 1200lbs less than our evos weigh.
