Default b16a or b18a turbo?

What are people getting out of these motors stock? I'd say maybe at around 1 bar or so would be able to get both into the 300 range wouldn't it? THat should easily get into the 12's with a HF and slicks right?

Yeah, both the b16 and b18a's should be in the 300whp range with 1 bar, given the right turbo of course. That should easily put a HF in the 12's @ atleast 115mph with traction. Not building a racecar anymore Paul?

At 12psi, stock motor. Ran 13.0 @ 110mph.


But they are both good set up stock vs. stock.

no, no more race car for me...I just need something fast to drive around everyday.

Thanks for the info Art. Is that Chris' dyno sheet? so he went 13.0 in a full body LS?

yeh it ran that time more then full body, at 2750 actually. full tank, spare, tools, junk. I was running on a busted tranny as well so had to take it easy shifting. I can't wait to hit the track again. torque makes a difference, I prefer the LS but I am biased cause I own one. they both are good.
