Well your asking me what I think. Well I think that your time can be greatly improved. It would be nice if you went a little more into detail about your setup. Do you have a intercooler/bov? The intercooler will reduce intake tempature alot and will improve you 1/4 times. The bov will increase the life of the turbo. I would def get a bov before a intercooler. Was this your first time at the track? All in all I have seen better times at 5.5 psi intercooled runing street tires on a turbo sohc coupe runing the greddy kit. All this means is that you have alot of room to improve and cut those times down greatly. My guess at 8psi intercooled runing with slicks, around low 14's. Hope I helped

CHECK THIS

My bud had a 98 EX coupe with a greddy turbo kit (non intercooled). He could only muster a 15.1 et with the stock kit set up. I sold him my turbo t4b from my drag kit I (gsr) for $300. He put a custom spearco front mount (medium sized) and a thicker headgasket and blockguard and bov. Then turned the boost up to +/- 12 psi. It dipped. Next thing you know 13.3 et. Not bad and only spent a 1g extra.

Not bad but you can improve. I just went to Moroso like 2 weeks ago, pulled consistem 14.6's at 6psi with my GReddy kit on street tires, this in my 98 EX. Work on getting out of the hole quicker. If I could lay down decent 2.1-2.2 60' times, I could have run 14.3-14.4 @ 6psi and 13.6-13.7 @ 12psi, but unfortunatley all I could pull was a bunchof nasty wheel hopping 2.4 60' times

On 16" street tires, I went 14.80 at 93 MPH in a torquless B16a... work on the launch, and be sure you're driving your car like you hate it.

With any kind of slick, you should be pulling WAY better than my 16" nitto 450 launched b16a
