i have a friend who is building a car for the street class and is worried that his setup just wont create the power needed to keep up anymore. can you guys give him a close estimate of the et's and power he can expect. i know its not an exact sience, but the regs. can give a a good idea.

setup:
motor:
darton sleeves
cp 84mm pistons
stock ls stroke
balanced and blue printed
b16 head/ stock ports
crower springs/retainers
crower stainless steel valves
crower turbo cams

induction:
custon equal length turbo mani
t3 60-1 70comp. 63.ar
pwr 24.5x11 fmic
2.5 in piping all around
tial 46mm
3'' dp
aebs intake manifold

miss:
255 walbro
880cc injectors
msd digital ignition
AEM EMS manegment

what do you think?

EDIT: the setup would be in a 99 ek coupe, weighing in at a modest 2550. it also runs all front energy suspension bushings and 900lb skunk 2 drag launch springs in the rear.

 

what body?

 

sorry...edit made!

 

i guess it obviously depends on the overall powerband and driver. the car could easily run 10.50's, or 11.50's, depending on how you wanna look at it. what kind of power does he think he'll make?

 

well hes kind of a novice at import building. but i expect the car to make approx. 550-600whp @ 26-30psi. thanks jinx...i hope that helps. and i do agree "driver is the main variable"

 

a 2550 lb car(with driver) should run low 10's with 600 hp and the right set up. i believe stan went 10.40 in my old car weighting 2450 with about 570 to the wheels. he had 25" slicks and he's a good driver, so base it off that. my guess would be to shoot for 10.30's.

 

the times you guys are estimating, is that with or without wheelie bars? so i would think with wheelie bars, high 9's are possible.

 

The motor sounds like it could make 500hp max on a real good tune. 500hp should get you 10's. The drivers ability will determine weather its mid 10's or high 10's

why do you think the motor will only make 500 whp max? ive seen similar setups make 520 on 25psi and a t4 60-1 (but the t4 60-1 has a smaller exh ar., .58) please explain.

 

A T3 60-1 will max out around 500hp, and btw, you never mentioned what rods you were usuing.

 

I agree...I would think the low 500whp range is what this setup is gonna max out at with that boost...

As far as ET, I would say mid-low 10's with a good driver...like Jinx said 10.40s or so....good luck next yr..

i agree on that also. However that setup with a good suspension and traction would have potential to be a 10sec car.

 

what map sensor are you using, i am running the same turbo , i dont think its good much over 500whp and you still have to run a lot of boost to get it there

 

Your setup looks like a 400 hp 300 ftlb setup on the good side add 50 horse. With that weight you will run a 11.99-11.00 i very doubt you will break 10's. anyway good luck!!

 

I personally have seen a t3/60-1 make almost 600 whp, it was in a nissan but it made the number none the less.
