ok the car weighs 2290 lbs with me in it and it was built to run nhra sportcompact street stock class after the car was built nhra changed their rules and i was left out of the loop , ive ran idrc ,and boti events out here in california if you look @ the pics closelly you see no cage in it because it was it was never intended to run anything quicker than 11.00 . now the car has undergone mayor surgery to drop some weight its @ 2050 lbs the car is very consistent in the 1/8 th but my mayor cocern was the 60' we had issues on the top end for a bit due to the fact that the oe tranny gearing is so out of wack but we have figured that out.
my car is some what a replica of kilo's car" JESUS PADILLA " its just been perfected supension wise , ive known the man since all my life so we have allways work really close , i am also his marketing manager . for the ones who have heard about kilo you know the type of race cars he builds so sorry guys there is no bs or nos in my car just good old fashion puerto rican engienering ur goal in mar car is to run a 10.00 or 9.999 with a manual transmission @ legal nhra weight so this summer you might be hearing a bit more about the car till then wish us luck ,we have a heard task in front of us but not imposible i have some engine bay pics in the drag racing section of the forum i quater mile times ,let me know what u think thanx

Bone stock '85 GS N/A at a decent local raceway got 16.2 @ 93 mph. Surprisingly beat many of the "suped-up" Hondas from the high schools....

^^ i thought he meant 10.89 in the quarter. if thats 1/8 then i can easily see that being possible. i think he says he ran a 6.8 in the 1/8.

Not really. Its not impossible to achieve what you are stating, just very unlikely.

I am just suprised that you are doing those times and mph with a Bridge-port, and not a Peripheral Port.

According to you:

Based on those times, ET, and weight:<-Click for yourself.)

- your car should be doing about 340-350 WHEEL HP. (If it weighed 2290)
- your car should be doing about 305-315 WHEEL HP. (If it weighed 2050)

You didn't specify what the weight was when you ran those times, so I
am just being thorough, and providing both calculations.

Although... in this post: https://www.rx7club.com/showpost.php?p=6876576&postcount=6
You state that the MPH was 121.156, at the exact same E.T, and that you..

After running that time.

So it appears you ran the 10.89 @ 121.156 at a weight of at 2290lbs, which means
- your car should be doing about 315-320 WHEEL HP. (If it weighed 2290)



I have not seen that kind of power on even 'one' Bridgeport with no power adders.
Running a carburator, 5-speed, 87 Octane, no methanol, etc... It becomes less and less realistic.


I am at a loss..

Are you running a semi-peripheral port? I know it can be hidden within the
intake on your car.

Anything is possible, right? But hey, what do I know.

i am really glad to see you have been paying close attention to my post thats good real good , so just because you havent seen that out of a bridge port means it cant be done ,and just cause evrybody told us we would never see a 9.8 on a 13b kilo quit and we didnt do it ,dam right we did how many people back in the day use to say that bridgeports force induction didnt mix ? that didnt stop them from trying new things and it wont stop us, r/d papo thats what its all about..... and if you what ask kilo how many times he has put the car in the dyno .....not once and neather has mine , but if what you are trying to say i am full of **** its ok you can say it on the other hand if the numbers are as high as your calculator is saying thats great cause we belive we have some more left to milk out of it eso es si el todopoderoso nos deja

You are 100% right. Good Luck, I hope to see you complete your quest for 9's soon. Hell, I wish I was running what your car is now..

DF, you should be running in that range with the engine you have right now. Sure its not an NA, but hey, if you can get traction I figure your car is good for low 10's at least. Unless of course you aren't running the same engine you had in the vids.

My car is too heavy at the moment. It's 2750 without me in it. Full Cage, Full Interior,
and Heavy *** Ford 8.8. Between the A/C and some other misc junk, I can probably
drop another 50-75lbs, while remaining a true street car.

The MPH I have run has been good for mid 10's (129), and that was with a Rotor exhaust sleeve blocking flow to the turbo, and limiting my boost
(almost fell into the turbo!!) My ET's have been horrible as it's too much wheelspin for
my tiny drag radials, and 2.4+ 60ft times.

I am not too concerned about the ET's though, that will come with traction
and driver practice. As long as I can outrun 95% of the cars on the road - I am happy.

The look on a Porsche Turbo drivers face after you chew him up and spit him out: priceless.

Soon after I dial in the rear end, I am going to put some slicks on it and go for it,
just for braggin rights later this year.

The 'Other' Engine will be good for 9's.
