Default Horsepower and E.T. approximates...

I just completed my build up and my dyno numbers looked like this:

263.1hp with 171.5lbs Tq

I am running a 1994 Civic Ex (mildly gutted, no sunroof, gutted dash, etc.) Car weighs 2054lbs. with me in it....

What area in seconds should I be in at 1/4 mile?

All opinions welcomed.

Thanks...

#1 Are you going to be racing on wooden wheels? drag radials? slicks? this small bit of info might help......

#2 Do you know how to drive? There is up to a second difference in 1/4 times with a driver mod.....

M&H Slicks 24 1/2 X 8.5 on a K-Sport suspension. Car feels really stiff. I've been out with it to Irwindale (1/8 mile) but shift linkage gave out and I did a best of 7.88 at 92mph I haven't been out since....

I've been racing for about 10 years on and off... Never in a drag car, just my daily driven. I ran 13.2's on my hatch... but again, a daily driven car.

I went 7.30 in the 1/8 @ 102 on my 11.01, so possibly mid high 10's for you I am guessing at that weight, I weight in the 2600's w/ me, go race and find out.

I am anxious to find out... I have a stoker crank, so I am also waiting on a twin plate clutch. The single plate clutch that I currently have is not working very well for me at high RPM's....
That's another problem all together :/

Had a 97 teg gutted (2340 w/me) made 246hp & 190ft/lbs. Went 12.44@116 with a 2.1 60'. This was on 24.5'' slicks though & I was having an issue with the nitrous that would hick-up as it came on..

Your all motor right, because 263hp allmotor is way faster than 263 with a turbo but then again this is against forum rules as mentioned above so run your car and let us know what if runs, btw nice setup.

Not if it's a smaller turbo which wouldn't need loads of time to spool.
