broke into very high elevens which Im happy with. the car is a very basic and budget built ls turbo hatch. I think Im doing good for the beginning of the season. hope to run 11.80's or better next weekend on the same power.

I know its not super fast but its a stock 92 ls motor with about $600 worth of ebay turbo parts.

 

Nice run man. I cant wait to get back to the track... once all this snow clears haha

 

how much power are u making?

 

about 288/255tq sae, it made 314/280 uncorrected on a cold day of 40 degrees.
Im getting some rc 550's and gonna try upping the boost. I also want to go with a methanol injection system and see if I can make 340-370 whp.

 

nice man

 

What was the break down on the time slip

 

nice times man!! i'm looking to be running the same times in my lil b16 this year, it's always funny to see budget builds like yours with less than 300whp run better times than alot of guys out there with 400+hp! weight reduction and driver skill and traction does alot more than big numbers! alot of people seem to overlook that power isn't everything!

 

10.84 with 407 in a si coupe, good driving will get you there. Congrats man, and hell yeah on the 600$ turbo kit.

 

nice job, keep going, boost is addictive and youll be looking for 9's before you know it

 

 

ya light weight is the way to go! Im gonna do a methanol injection kit on it and 550cc injectors and try to make a little more.


I saw that video of your si running 10.84, kick *** man. that turbo kit is super nice. keep up the good work.

 

Nice... Got your moneys worth for going that fast at that price. Usually takes a lot more to hit 11's that ive seen.

 

ya, Iv done built motors before and Iv always had better luck with stockers and just pushing them. the nice thing is that if I do blow it up I can get a new ls longblock for $200 ish

the funny thing is this motor made more whp on the same boost as my rod and piston ls vtec with a ram horn lol

 

congrats on 11's, where was this?

 

woodburn drag strip, I ran 12.0 at pir the night before I had alot more fun at pir though so I think Im gonna go there more regularly.

 

pir= portland? i'm up north in washington and our track doesnt open until mid april and i'm feening to run my new setup. how is it?

 

badass bro, i hope to brake the 11s with my stock ls, gone 12.3 with 2.0 60ft got a few more psi i can go...goodluck to you

 

Congrats! It's just nice seeing ebay parts work when people use them right!

 

ya portland international raceway. go dude you will like it, Ill be up there next weekend for the late night drags. every one is super friendly.

 

Mind sharing your build? I really want to boost and im on a budget right now with a spare hatchback just BEGGIN to get boosted.

BTW, good ****ing run!!!

 

Great time man!

 

I have a little build thread in the appearance section. its just a really basic setup but Iv had quite a few turbo cars so I kinda knew what I was doing, what would work and what wouldn't work. the trick is to get everything to match your needs.

 

you need to get your 60's down. what psi are you running in your slicks? they say that .1 of a sec off your 60' = .2 of a sec et. thats a huge diff. I wanna get down to cutting 1.6 60's


heres my build thread for any one whos interested.

congrats! nice run!

 

Your time slip looks almost identical to mine! You got a slightly better 60' than me but I was .02 tenths faster on the other side! I did mine on mostly Ebay parts as well I just bought a InlinePRO T4 manifold but other than that its all EBAY! Ebay FTMFW!
