#4253, "Think I'm worthy for constant 12's?"




          

with these mods do you think i'm worthy of 12's in 1/4 mile?:
420a
8.8:1 CP or JE pistons
eagle rods
hrc stage 2 turbo kit
obx adj. cam gears
crane turbo cams
3 angle valve job
500cc injectors(or something close)
vortech sfmu
missing link
3" exhaust
walbro 255lph FP(with the accel in-line)
Greddy profec B spec 1 or 2(which do you guys think is better?)
UDP
60mm TB
bigger plug wires with new plugs
TUNING!
probably forgetting a few things i'm getting but that's the basics.

i've already purchased alot of the items and going through with the engine work soon. and i know i need new clutch, lsd, hella driving skills!, etc...but i'm just talking engine.

and no, i'm not rich - i'm 17(graduated),have had my car for over 2 1/2years, make $9/hour and i'm getting a loan and paying for it all myself. then going to college to be a mechanic, if anybody was curiou

anybody with a thought/idea of how much HP/torque i'd be getting around and 1/4 and 1/8 mile times would be awesome, thanx

and is anybody on here around eastern nebraska or western iowa? thanx again

Dead on tuning, PRACTICE and some drag radials need to be added to your list. You have a long way to go and it's always going to be an uphill battle. But that's what makes doing this so much fun.

No. You will be somewhere in the upper 13s with that set up (if you get it tuned right - more than likely low 14s like a stock SRT4).

Bigger turbo for more air, 8 injectors for more fuel, slight head work to mix it better, tuning, and practice.

Even I've grown tired of bench racing. I Have a nice day.

Edited to be more pleasant.

its not the amount of mods that get it done...its tuning, driver ability, a bazzillion different factors....your #1 killer is that sissy ass 16g turbo your rocking....get a 20g or better yet 25g if you really wanna make some power...and your gonna need some drag radials to get it done....

agreed.. 300whp won't get you 12's tho... maybe 400, but u'll want at least a 20g for that.



Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?

I was running in the neighborhood of 350 fwhp in my Eclipse, and ran a best of 13.2 in the 1/4. With stickier tires, my trap speed tells me I should have been running in the upper 12's. When you get to that horsepower level, putting it to the ground becomes the problem - not making more power.

thanx guys, i'll maybe be done around a month from now so once i get used to driving a turbo, i'll take it to the track and i'll post my times or something. and i was just wondering becuz Hahn ran 12.3 with the s16g, of course they had larger injectors and a computer but it's still a s16g and they say their stage 3 will get you around high twelves.

Those times are on slicks, with Bill Hahn Jr. driving. You're not Bill Hahn

992gnt could have easily been in the 12's had he ever run real slicks on his car. Many people here could be, if they had a good tire. The biggest issue is driver skill and PRACTICE!
