Ok, so I went to the local 1/8 mile drag strip this weekend and did two runs against a Caliber SRT-4 (2.4liter I believe). They didn't have the timer up yet (new track). I've got 8psi on a Garrett T3/T4OE 57trim w/ .63A/R. This guy said he's running completely stock (10psi) but I've heard they can run up to 15psi on the factory TD04. I got the jump on him both times (my launch control & 2100lbs>his factory boost control & 3200lbs) but once he gained traction he started reeling me in hard. I'm not too familiar w/ the CSRT-4's but it was a lot meaner than I expected! I hear they run low 14's stock. So, I'm confused... for anyone that knows, is it 10psi stock or 15psi on these? Was he pulling a fast one on me? is my tune just that shitty? or are they just that quick? haha!

p.s. at 8psi I'd like to think I could at least approach low 14's if not break into the high 13's w/ a B16... maybe I'm wrong though...

Thoughts? This is 2 videos of the runs I'm talking about... Hopefully this helps...

i had a untuned b16 on 10psi running constant 13.5-13.6 . those are also a 15psi stock i work for a chrysler dealer and no they are not that fast. best one "stock" i have seen run ran a 14.69 at 85mph. i would get a retune if i was a good well known tuner in your area. you can at least 275-300 i would think on a stock b16. get some slicks and a lil 2-step in your tune at around 7000 rpm and and practice driving. g/l man

 

Thanks for the reply calboi! I've been thinking about getting a retune lately. Wouldn't hurt so that's probably what I'll do. So were you doing mid 13's on slicks or street tires?

 

idk anything about those car but the simple fact that i walk them all day. lol

read sig.

 

street tires sir
