Can I get it done with 375 in a dx hatch?

 

you plan to use the dx single came motor?

 

he is probably just using the body with a different motor

 

375 aint gonna cut it. the guys running the 10's are usually at least in the 500+ range

I think if only took 375, there would be a lot more HTers in the 10s than there are.

when did he ever hint that he was gonna use the d15? All he said was 375 hp in a dx hatch.

It's going to take about 500 whp to do it in a hatch... Less hp with weight reduction.

 

400whp in a properly setup cx/vx hatch will do it if you can drive...Theres guys going 11.2-11.5 with 320-375. People don't realize its ALOT easier to make big numbers than it is to use them iin a honda. You need about a 130mph trap to run 10's. a 2200lb car with 400whp will trap right around there.

 

MY CAR MADE 350 HP AND 237 TRQ 11.320@123.427 VX NO FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND NO BACK SEAT

 

My old hatch was making about 420-440 when I ran a 10.9 @ 131 weighing 2450

 

Good Topic! Why don't we get some more setups with numbers!

 

What are the weights on these cars? And are these all with slicks? In the latest DSPORT mag. there's a 10 sec. eg on drag radials...

if your 1,800'lbs with you in the car it may can be done , other then that you need 440-460whp with a smaller turbo to get a good power to run mid to high 10's

 

Thanks guys. It looks like I'll be ordering a NOS kit also. I just don't think I can get 425hp from a stock bore b16 and a t3t4 48ar 50.

 

screw the nitrous, just upgrade the turbo

You think they are lying?

 

how about 250 hp what number u can get to the 1/4 m, this is on a ek hb??

 

To answer your question, yes, I believe it could be done with 375 whp in a 2100-2300 pound car...Also many people are in such a big hurry to make the big horsepower #s, they forget to properly set up the suspension for drag racing...To give you an example, my car is a full weight 92 dx h/b, making 300 whp at best when I ran 11.7...This was pulling mid to high 1.7 60 fts...If I were to properly set the car up for drag racing, my 60 fts would be even better resulting in a better et with the same amount of horsepower...Drop a little weight, along with 75 more whp, and I think high 10s would be no problem...Also, you do not need 130 plus mph trap speeds to go 10s...Like I said, the car needs to be set up for a dragging...People on here before have went in the 10s with less than 400whp, and trap speeds around 125 mph....Just my .02

If there was a 10 second FWD car on drag radials EVERYONE would be talking about it.

A little off topic here, but I'm curious what turbo you're using in your R pete?

i was running a t3/04e, i just took it out for a t3/67

 

I think it is possible with a good properly set up suspension and some good driving.

All these 500whp+ cars I have seen videos and they are fast but alot "not all" are blowing the tires off on the kick?
