Default High 14's with a SOHC turbo?

Running a T3 on my VTEC SOHC Del Sol Si, and 5-7lbs of boost, will I be able to hit high 14's? That is my only goal with this turbo... high 14's...will it be possible right off the bat?

I pulled a 14.63 @ 95mph with a GReddy kit and only 6psi, in a 98 EX coupe, so yes you should hit mid 14's no problem.

I would hope you could run 14's WITHOUT the turbo.

For real! With the turbo and SOHC, it is not very tough to hit 13's even. 14's should be pretty easy.

Even with your basic I/H/E and slightly gutted would be pretty tough to get that overweight del sol into the 14's.. maybe if you had some good drag radials and launched like a mother ******.

20x8x14 slicks @ 12 psi, 7800 rpm launch.

Works for me.
