I know there are several people here who do, I know of one that runs 19 to 20 daily. I am rebuilding my engine right now and injectors are the only thing I have not bought. What size are you guys running? Will 450's be enough? I plan on ordering them tonight so I can have the car done by next weekend and start breaking it in to go to the dyno, any help would be appreciated.

I ran 15psi on 440cc/min squirters, plenty of fuel.

Explain James. Dino has a T3/T4 turbo that's quite capable of getting into the 11's probably.
If by your statement, you're suprised he didn't do better, well I'm sure Dino agrees. But we're FWD, so it's not easy getting all that power to the ground.
In any case, no need to be indignant. We're all cool here. It's not like you need to have a chip on your shoulder here. It's a 420a site!

Yep, with that MPH, if he could get traction, that would be a DEEP 13 of not high 12. hell I can hit 13.51 in my RWD car at only 99 mph. Traction on our cars blows goats. And thanks Dino, thats what I needed to hear, will your 440's support more boost than that or is that about maxed out?

On a S16G turbo, you can run about 20-21 psi at the max on 440's. You MUST use higher than 93 octane fuel though when you run that much boost...Leaded race gas also makes you run just a bit richer too..has to do with the density of it, over pump gas.

Yeah, I expected that, I am going to set up two tunes on my car, about 15 for daily driving and 20 to 22 (if the injectors are capable) for the track. Probably cost me a bit in Dyno time but dammit if it coes out nicely and I am able to make a 12 second pass on slicks, I will be happy, thats all I want. Damn raceeng.com is out of JE pistons till Thursday so my orer will not ship till then, sucks cause I wanted to finish it this weekend and start breaking the new motor in but oh well, I guess next weekend for me. Thanks for the help guys.

I will use Marks car again as the model citizen of a 440/AFC S16G setup.
This is on a 97 octane mix (100 + 93 mixed) running 21psi on 440s with the AFC to tune. This looks like where the 440's are starting to reach their limits. You could probably get a bit more out of them with higher octane petrol and higher fuel pressures.

So what do you run?
it's all traction. My local track has an on-again off-again surface. Sometimes its great, sometimes it sucks. Every time i've run in the 13's (the last 4 times i've gone) it has been on a 2.34 or worse 60'. The worst 60' i've had on a high 13 second pass was a 2.45. Should it do better? yeah. On street tires and 93 octane pump? Maybe.
It's not all about boost. More boost does not always equal more power.
