Well I finally got to the track again and got just about as close as you can to breaking into the 10's
r/t .127
60' 1.783
330' 4.895
1/8 7.337
mph 102.84
1000' 9.355
1/4 11.010
mph 139.27

I did bounce the rev limit in 4th just before the finish but still not to shabby for a 3000 lb pig.


as for the setup....
h22 built
gt40R
1600 cc's
AEM EMS
full-race topmount
GE IM
24.5x8.5 M&H
and some other stuff...

I big to Joe @ Tempest, it's been a long time coming but this car will hit 10.XX soon.

I have a video and a pic of the time slip that will be posted when I get time.

 

Nice job man... Inspiration . Do you think a gt35r would have been better for your build? Your so very very close man. Keep us posted. Wheres the video?

 

NICE numbers. And is it a 5th gen? Lighten it a bit, and you will be in 10's. what kind of hp do you havE? specs on the motor?

 

awesome!!!!

was this done with 30psi????



PS. you still have a/c in this car right??

 

Congrats! That's impressive, are there any 5th Gen's in the 10's yet?

 

very nice. one of these days ill be able to collect enough money to finish mine to get it down to that time. good job though

look at his avatar... yes it is a 5th gen. I agree with minor weight reduction you would be in the 10's with a good run. His Horsepower figures are in his sig. The worlds fastest prelude is mid 10's isnt it? Looks like we have another contender coming up lol.

 

I am really proud! Keep it up for us 5thgenrs .

 

Imagine what that motor would do in a EG/EH chassis ....

Thanks, I don't think the 35r would have worked as well, I have no problem with lag and the car responds well.

to the best of my knowledge there are only 2 10-second preludes both are 4th gen.

the run was on 30 psi, but no a/c (due to the manifold). The only other stuff I took out are cruise, spare tire, and the jack.

the car:






Video:

it starts part way into the run and focuses on the other board but you'll still get the point.

^ you own lol. But yea maybe backseats, cf hood, cf trunk, cf sunroof plug etc would be nice weight reduction ideas. Im sure you have a goal in mind and know how to achieve it. I was just putting it out there.

 

whats your suspension setup like???do you have a traction bar??any traction issues???

 

That is a very very clean looking 11 second car. NICE

 

very nice

 

I have tokico illumina's and eibach springs on skunk2 sleeves (650 lb front, 1000 rear) and no traction bar. The car spins thru first gear but I really haven't had enough runs to play with tire pressure and launch RPM that much.

 

that turbo is fricken huge! I love it!

I think if you can find a little traction you'll hit 10's for sure

good job man

yeah...i saw that in the video, it sounded like it bogged a little when you hit 2nd..do you have traction control setup in the aem???are you using the boost control also??

 

what all of us 5th genners strive for. this thread should be renamed and stickied. "Tuner's Dream: 5gen" hell .010 of a second? u could shave that time off by taking those stickers off your hooD!

verr nice to see a 5th gen close to breaking into the 10's.

 

damn,nice sleeper

 

manh you lude owns all

Definitely! Besides the FMIC and huge tires up front, you'll never know it was capable of hitting those numbers!

With more seat time, you'll be in the 10's easy!

 

Are you going to be getting a traction bar setup? are you running on stock axels?

 

I love it!
0-100=~7sec
0-140=~11sec
Just awesome!!!
Are you staging the boost? That seems like alot of power to manage off the line!

 

I've seen your car around different forums before but I never knew Joe did the work. Do you ever come down to MIR to run?
