about drag time at the track. more for personal interest (I don't know my times) than anything else.


you can see what mods I have. Theres no tune on the piggy other than RRM's V.2. what am I looking at?


how about for someone who has all that I do, along with throttle body/pp intake?

how about a full blown NA car - pistons, IM etc. etc.?

 

not sure but i think it would be cheaper to get a turbo kit with stock internals running on 5-7psi than spending all your money on n/a mods.

 

Why not go out and see what times you can get?

 

yeah great answer +1 and +2. see what times u can get then go from there but im with 2show id go with the turbo, jus dont be dumb and try to push too much psi

 

or you can check the time slips on the registry once they put them back up, just find someone with about the same mods

 

not everyone can afford $4000 to spend on a turbo but if you buy every bolt on part thats out there you should be very pleased with the outcome

 

Hate to say it, but I have every bolt on and I'm not super pleased at the results. Yes the car is faster, but it's not exactly a cheetah.

 

Of course, the eternal evolutionm.net answer.... just go turbo. That wasn't really the question. On, for my part, I should have made clear I'm not askin' so much for the track.... When I drive around these days (nice and dry, not when there's snow/ice) it seems like I can take most cars that appear to be 4cyl. I'm way too nervous to try and take a 6cyl. Now, a guy in a eclispse wanted to race the other day, I opted out. I don't think I'm anywhere near taking on an eclipse. . .

 

what bolt ons do you have and which ones made the biggest differnce to you?

 

Like I said, I have everything that falls into the "bolt on" category and more. Intake, TB, IM, header, exhaust, fuel rail and high compression pistons and I would guess I'm at maybe 120 whp or so. I don't know which one made the biggest difference as they all work together. If I was going to do it all over again I wouldn't bother with most of it, I'd just save up and turbo it (which I'm now doing).

 

Amby- once you turbo it, with all your supporting mods you will make insane power. Even I can't wait to see that.

 

yes you are gonna have great gains when you put a turbo on it. with the mods that i have i can tell a differnce i have intake, header, exhaust, high flow cat, 50 shot nitrious, intake manifold, crank pulley, soon to come stage 1 cam, throttle body, ported head, cant really afford $4000 for turbo now so ill buy as much with what i can afford also i am focusing on other areas that cost alot of money for what i wanna do to it! but good luck on everything

 

Yeah that's what I'm hoping, I just have to solve the high compression problem.

 

i am suddenly Ambystom's biggest fan. I wanna see what happens here too.
