You know whats weird is a guy just went to the track with 20G-LT that has BR stage 4 and AEM and on meth/93 went 122mph. How did you go 8mph faster!!!!LOL!

10s too!! Damn it!
He's a much better driver! I suck at driving! ha-ha-ha

He also made a lot more power then me too along with the C-16.

Dave can you chime in on this?

Yes, I can respond to that.

People love to hate. The more things you prove, the more people you prove wrong, the more people want to come up with obscure BS to keep coming up with some reason that "this" just won't work.

I have a wind speed meter for proof

Non of these guys are running C16 all the time. The cars spend very little time at 30 psi...............think about it.

On top of that the number of greens out there already should show the durability of the turbo.

True. That's why God graced us with pump gas maps and C-16 maps

It seems that the green has gone far in getting cars into the 10s.

From my perspective of a street car on pump gas, the turbo exceeded my expectations by holding boost on my IX to redline.

I am sure that my tune is not as fine as it should and I already feel a lot more pull under high RPMs where the stock turbo was not enough for the head.

The other day, I launched the car like 5000 rpms (really fu$%$ up launch) and missed third real bad. I still made 12.6 @ 112.8 MPH on 22 PSI.

I am pretty sure that my car is on the 11s with a far from been good tune.

Good luck to all the green/LT owners!

4k more in mods for .6 and 8mph does not seem worth it

Of course it wouldnt, i mean didnt one of yalls built cars just trap in the 140s on street tires, lol. JK with ya man. That dollar figure does seem a bit steep but you do gotta pay to play, and some routes are more exspensive then others. But i bet he can still pull up and claim hes got a stock turbo( I like to be a bit sneaky when possible haha)

Very nice runs .

Like I have ben saying, this turbo is a 'Jewel'. Just step on the gas and in an instant, full boost and tons of torque.

I believe someone in the thread asked about the weight of the car.

I don't know the answer to that. When I run it, I take out the spare and rear seat. It is also missing the front and rear crash beans due to the BR Race FMIC and a JDM IX rear. Oh, and I weigh 160.

I was really tempted to run it on 94 + alky yesterday but went straight to the C-16. I guess I am a C-16aholic.
