Yeah spun 1st and second really bad.. Plus it has almost bald seasons

And yes! I was going into 5 th gear..


And the car is running great did street runs with A built k series Integra with consistent 12.1-12.5 and was pulling ahead 1+1/2 cars everythime. . The car will get low 12s high 11's when it catches traction.. The world needs its critics tho lol

 

Your going to die on those tires, I can not believe you out running on them. There so bald!!!

That's the biggest problem!! My car went 11.9 @121 and we pulled side by side that day from a roll. Your car move pretty good for what it is.

New tires and some seat time and you will get a nice slip. Don't be discouraged everyone thinks its easy!

I'm not sure you should be telling me about cars with a 2.5 60' in the first place lol. Learn to drive. Get some non bald tires. Then the car will run what it can.

 

In all seriousness... No reason that car isn't running mid 11's on some good street tires.

 

K thanks

 

+1 time will tell!!

 

seriously ? that trap speed is way to low regardless of the 60ft. Dont care what cars trap on your dyno. I had a hta86 on stock cams on stock motor and it was a DOG no bottom end and wouldnt make tq for **** made 380whp on virtual dyno and trapped 118mph running a 12.9 with a 2.7 60 ft. added cams changed everything! Honestly I would NEVER recommend a gt35 size turbo on a stock camd evo 8 or 9. Even with cams on 93 pump its still going to be a dog bottom end and your gonna get pulled on my stock turbod evo 9's till top of third gear.... Just saying. If you wanna keep that set up get some valvetrain and a set of GSC S2's and live life at 8000rpm. (on a 8)

 

I trapped 121 on stock 8 turbo and stock block lol. Something doesn't add up.

 

Cams ftw!

 

118mph running a 12.9 with a 2.7 60 ft.(you thing as hard as you can)
112mph running 12.8 with A 2.5 (me 2 week evo owner shifting into 5th across the line)
I've been getting some seat time will have updated results for who ever wants to know

 

Count me in on some updates

 

For street use, a 6262 is not an ideal turbo but at the track you are in the turbo's powerband the entire race. So your wisdom has no merit for his topic. His MPH is very low and I feel its reflected by his rookie driving more than the vehicle itself, plus shifting into 5th gear. We could add bigger cams but thats NOT going to improve his powerband width. His WHP on our dyno is as high as we generally recommend on a daily driven evo on a stock block for LONGEVITY. Can we make 150whp on the stock block? Sure. Will it last? Not as long. The turbo came on the vehicle when he purchased it, its not like he planned the build. The origianl owner planned on a BR 2.3RPM upgrade and decided to just do the turbo first so he could have some more power for the timing being while he saved for the rest of the build. Nothing wrong with that.

Yes, on E-85. Nothing hard to do with supporting mods. His issue is more driving experience and less about the car. I wouldn't pass judgement on anything until he has consistent results that show no improvement, which I'm sure he will see much improvement.

Trap speeds are low too as mentioned. The stock turbos are super easy to launch with as they have tons of boost built up out of the hole and zero lag when launching and switching gears, but when switching to a larger turbo you have to learn a whole new technique. With 502whp stock block on pump on a 35r I had trouble getting out of the 12's due to lack of boost when launching even with a well tuned launch control and anti-lag, but I found my main issue was really my clutch. I had a 4puck clutch with an ultra-lite flywheel and could not find a sweet spot with it, switched to a QM 8-leg and my troubles were over... Consistent 11's with 1.7-1.9 60' times vs the 2.1-2.4 I was getting before.

 

One of the smartest responses I've heard in this thread. Congrats!
