Lana Goes 10.7 @ 132 stock turbo!!!
whats up bro, ur absolutley right about the huge window. But if I'm not mistaken, didn't u run that time with a built motor & a stock turbo? I think Marks record is 10.6 stock block, unported head & stock turbo... I'm DEFF not taking anything away from u at all . Before I even bought the car i was aware of ur record on stock turbo, but I had u in a whole nother big dog league lol. As Lana sits now its Juss stock block, unported head with cams, stock turbo with bolt ons as I'm sure u kno. & if I'm mistaken about the 10.6 record than my fault, Juss goin by what everyone else was sayin. I do appreciate the props tho bro. I told u from day one, she's in good hands! I just want to fix the clunking noise problem I'm having & refreshen the trans & run the best possible time I can. As u kno, I'm new to the awd turbo world. But I'm a very quick leaner. I will most deff pm u with any questions I may have. Thanks again

No problem. You deserve it. Those are awesome times. You can't put her in a different league though due to a built motor. I built the motor to prepare her for big power. I know plenty of people who have made more power than me on stock block. I'm just not willing to take a motor loss when I was gonna build her anyways. The power was mild at 468. My buddies stock block, stock head, stock cam, stock turbo Evo makes 460. So other than my combo and how the power comes on I wasnt making any significant more power than most. Anyways I dont want to derail a great thread about semantics. My only imply was the window is huge when you can't really make much more power. It will come down to weather, driving, combo of parts, and the perfect pass. Like I said , if I can help in any way let me know even though it looks like you have it well under control. Again those runs are awesome. Post some vids if you have them... I'd love to see them. Best wishes...
Honestly im not the most patient man in the world... I was Juss chasing the 10.6 because I have confidence in myself & the car that I can beat that time. Especially with the handicaps I have now. As u saw in the pic the car is deff heavier now, not by much but wen we talkin .tens of a sec every lil bit counts... I can't sit here n say I'm gona Chase ur 10.2 because I'm just into goin fast, & I already have the new kit patiently waiting to be thrown in, wich I will then be lookin to run 9's lol. I haven't set up a YouTube account so I can't post vids yet, but I'm workin on it. Mabe I can email u the last pass so u can hear the noise @ the end of the pass n see if u can take a guess at Wat it culd be.
If the vid is too big I have a yahoo account but will have to find it. Sorry to hear something failed. Hopefully its something minor.
I hear ya on chasing numbers. It can get out of hand for sure. The amount of time, money, and effort to chase the 10.2 wouldnt be worth it in my opinion. I even put on a brand new oem turbo for those runs. I say go big and have a blast. The stock turbo stuff is fun but you will be amazed with that car on big power. The car is crazy fast. I liked the car best at 631 whp on Forced performance's RED. It was very drivable on the street and wicked quick. The big turbo was 800 whp and was a handful at the track. What kind of power are you plnning on making? And a big kudos to whoever tuned the car and set it up. Running 132mph with more weight tells me the car is making great power.
Yeah try sending me the vid. dairman@comcast.net

Thanks Em... Like I said before, the majority of the credit still goes to u guys! We haven't had a chance to dyno the car. All my tuner did was hook the laptop to it n make a few adjustments to ur tune. Basically a ruff street tune. As u kno the car really wouldn't hold idle, so he played with that also. now she idles like stock... Overall I'm super happy with the car & the times, considerimg the trans & the slight weight gain lol. Im Juss mad I broke already. Haven't even had a chance to take the car apart yet... But I'll be pm'ing u shortly on a few parts n misc things I need.
