wet track.

i have already broken 3 passenger and 2 driver's side axles, (advance & autozone special warranty, GOTTA LOVE IT!!!)

then just yesterday, well 2 days now, on sunday, i take a friend for a ride, shifting into 2nd i break the neckof the passenger side axle that slides in the disk part of the wheel, straight up shattered, (200miles is how long it lasted)

a week before that, i broke the same passenger side axle , on the line, launching @ 5500 light turns green and it snapped so fast that i didnt even get to move an inch to at least get a reaction time. i get out and push it back while a guy yells "get a chevy".

then, this past friday night, i left a stock tt 93 rx7, bone stock, just keep it nicely tuned up and kept in perfect condition, only thing done to it is a vacum hose replacement and a replaced ground wire. got it on video, putting it online asap.

also, i have beaten:
two firebird ws6's 2000 body style
multiple mustang gt's and a mach 1
turbo evo8

anyways, what do you guys think that i may be pushing hp torque wise?

btw, 98 hatch

 

111mph traps on a honda (judging by weight, etc) typically sound like around 250ish to the wheels (give or take a little). The trap is good for 12's, but you just need a little more traction.

**EDIT** Didn't see that it was a hatch until after the post. A local turbo GSR with full interior local here made about 260 to the wheels and ran 110 traps.

Dam, great traps for a Saab T3. How much boost you up to?
Id guess 230-240 max on that turbo.

 

I made 260hp at the wheels, my car weighs 2500 with me in it, and I trapped 112.7 last time at the track, with 0 traction in first, 50% in second, and it started to haul *** in 3rd.

Mine's a 90-91 LS tranny, non LSD on 195/50/15 Potenza street tires at 32 psi.

Ditto

 

7.5 lbs

 

lol Tex, I thought that was you..I saw you cane the Rx-7 on CH.com...I can't believe you run a T3 and beat up on him like that..

 

beware of the 50 trim T3!

 

yea, i beat the 7, nothin wrong w/ the t3, thanks to the little advice a guy told me not far from my little shop,

 

now, with this setup that i have rite now, i'm going to run on slicks, how do MT slicks 24.5X9X13 mounted on lenso's sound? I am not really sure on what size i should go on but the falken azenis are about 22' and i'm shifting into 5th goin down the 1/4, i figure maybe these might be a little overkill.

How do you have a stock Saab turbo and an external wastegate? did you just weld the flap shut?

 

take the wastegate off, then mount the t3 flange, and then use a manifold that uses an external wastegate.
