50 trim times slips

I've already searched, supposidly 50 trims don't top out over 126mph in the 1/4, what has anyone else trapped? I've also seen 124, but what are some of the the ETs to go along with that . . . is it capable of 10s then ? . . . should the lag of a BR3065 with the higher trap speeds justify getting that instead of a 50 trim? All inputs are welcome, thanks

hoping Jrod sees this thread, or anyone that has had the BR-50trim, how does that compare to the 3065, is just as similar to an AMS 50trim? or any other 50trim?

You better race at the track on the 13th, Kahill is going and raced greg with the supra and held with him and thats a 10.40 @ 13? car. I should have took your 50trim when I had the chance

I think the 50 Trim can trap 128 with the proper set-up and driving. Thats the record I'm hoping to set for myself this year

well keep in mind there are alot of factors that affect trap speed. regardless of the turbo.........

The headwork, motorwork, intake mani, all that sh_t affects trap speed. and i don't think anyone has ever really "Blown" out their motor with a 50 trim setup...........

so it's hard to say..........

Interesting, I think Im the only one running my 50trim on pump, I need to do a race gas map and beat the hell out of my car in the 1/4 mile. Hmm we'll see.

Doesn't seem likely; I assume you're trapping 124mph with the 496whp shown in your sig dyno?

You would either need to be the first Evo putting down 540whp with a 50trim; or driving a 4-door car with only one seat in it...

You guys should stop looking for hp, and start looking for aero. See how much a good rear diffuser would help improve aerodynamics.
