48587, Help me hit 14.xxs
Posted by Hamgumball, May-12-03 01:31 PM
Well, my best quarter mile so far is 16.71 completely stock with the 17" i was stuck with when i got my car. Now, my car is hibernating after a oil leak. Since that run I put a custom turbo setup. My goal is to completely skip the 15 seconds and go straight to the 14. I'm very ambitious i know, thats what I want to do.

So, for all of you who have hit the 14 seconds and faster. How many pounds of boost are you running, and with what? What would I need? FMIC? Rebuilt engine, are 14 secs achievable on a stock bottom end?

yes, a buddy of mine hit a 14.7 on his stock bottom end with an HRC stage 2 and a custom 2.5" downpipe. Hell Im only 4/10ths away from being in the 14s NA, so yeah its definitely possible

With just about any turbo setup, it should be entirely possible to get into the 14's. As long as your clutch is good enough, and you know how to launch it. Launching a FWD isn't always easy. Takes a lot of practice. Also try to tune your fuel system as best you can. Use every measuring device at your desposal. Highly reccomend some sort of datalogger to watch your fuel trims and get those squared away. Best of luck!

My friend has a modded GTP that hits mid 14's consistantly. I lost to him by half a car length and I'm only running the HRC stage 1 and a cat-back. Go fig...
