Exclamation 12 Second Turbo 2 $6000



This is my baby. This has been my pride and joy for a year, its a awesome car. But I'm forced to sell it due to loosing my job. It is in great running condition and the interior is immaculate, the exterior does need paint. Its never been in the snow, hail, sleet, and its kept in a garage. The car runs constant low 13's and all the runs were made with street tires, so with slicks you could really lay down some even better numbers. It puts down a estimated 275-300rwhp. The motor only has around 3500 miles on it after a full rebuild of everything, new rotors, new housings, oil lines, etc. The body has around 105k on it. Modifications are as follows:

Steel Braided Oil Cooler Lines
HKS Air Intake
Blitz Blow Off Valve
Jspec Turbo
Jspec Exhaust Manifold
Racing Beat 2 1/2" Downpipe and Pre Silencer
ACT Pressure Plate
Racing Beat Street Strip Clutch Disc
18lb Steel Flywheel
Greddy Power Extreme Exhaust
Synthetic Redline Gear Oil
Eibach Sport Springs
Air Pump Removed
Dual Belt Alternator Pulley
Street Ported Motor
New Bearings
New Seals
New Oil Pump
3rd Gen Oil Pressure Regulator
3rd Gen Fuel Pump
Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator
720 CC Secondary Injectors
All BUR9EQ's Spark Plugs
ApexI AVC-R
ApexI S-AFC
ApexI Turbo Timer
17" Enkie Shoguns
205/40/17 Toyo's in the Front
205/40/17 Falken's in the Back
Panasonic Cd Player
Infinity Perfect Speakers


I also have a set of slicks and a set of stock Turbo II Rims that i can throw into the deal. (BFG 245/50/16 Racing Slicks)

I'm looking for $6000. If you think this is too steep please email me and i can try to work out a deal just for you.

Yeah, first they tried to consume my pants, then they bit me! I much rather prefer the ducks... I might be headed out that way sometime in the summer, maybe I'll take my rex with.

Be a Pimp and get you some hookers, let them use the ride and crash at your crib while you job hunt, it's just temporary I'm sure there are some girls willing to work. I'm kidding go do some security work during these trying times.

why BS Soul
this guy has way more mods then me
he should be able to hit 12's with Drag Radials no problem

I've run several 13.5 passes @10PSI
and I got only exhaust and mild port.
on plain street tires
and if I was to lower my 60 foot from 2.1-2.5 which is the norm
to 1.7-19
I could hit low 13's no problem

How ever the N/A drivetrain on my GXL(S4 TII motor) can not handle
drag radials

ok i hate to burst your bubble but htere is NO way you are putting that much horsepower down 275-300 RWHP unless you can show me a dyno sheet i think it is B.S.
time slip would also be nice also
you have a stock turbine, no ECU if you run 13 psi you hit fuel cut unless you have a FCD which you don't
720cc injectors? those are still to small you added a whopping 340cc of fuel you can tune nicely with the s-afc but you still run into the prob of fuel cut so that did you no good
your engine is pretty much stock except for the street port, probably still running stock timing you are maybe pushing 225- 250 RWHP
like to prove me wrong hook me up with a dyno sheet

well if you would have listed that earlier i woudl not have mentioned it, nice car though but i think you are estimating a little high, what was your trap speed for that 12.9? do you have that new seat of the pants dyno?

Ok soul my friend is working on making me a MPEG of my 13.52 run
On plain street tires with a 2.1 60FT
I have NO FCD
NO bigger injectors
GXL Fuel Pump
NO boost controller
Only Mild Port
and a Straight 3 exhaust

My trap speeds are a consistant 105MPH

Hey we can't all have such a great engine builder as I got

Who ever builds your Motor is going to determine what power your going to make. No matter what external mods you put on.

There people here with all kinds of electronics
bigger turbos bigger injectors
and other high tech gadgets
and can only dream of beating me.

I'm now going to ditch my GXL car
that is using the weak drivetrain
and putting the motor in a TII
and will be running Drag Radials
and a FMIC

and I WILL HIT 12's

Yeah I'd have to agree I think he is exaggerating those numbers a bit. I am not feeling those wheels either, even though they were probably pretty expensive. 275-300 rwhp and you have 205's on the back? whoa.

Soul Assassin: Leave the man alone, he's got a nice car he's trying to sell. Just because you've got the coolest, most powerfull FC on the planet doesn't mean you should pick on him. The point was he's done a fair bit to his car.

12.9 sec. @ 114 mph

Oh and those are my street tires/rims (i pulled the rims out of a junk yard), the car hardly ever sees anything but the SCCA track or the drag strip. I never built up enough capital on the project to want to afford a better wheel/tire setup for street use.

this makes sense

Ok soul my friend is working on making me a MPEG of my 13.52 run





see you really cant compare your car to his do to the fact that you said u have a gxl and gxl are lighter than tII this makes you car faster thou u are using TII engine and the rest is still the gxl



so what i just explined make for your car to achive a bit close if not better than a TII

Que?

esta vien yo tengo un TII que le voy a poner el motor del GXL
and I'm going to run even faster with that heavier car

My GXL with the TII motor is Not lighter
it's the same.

The SE where the light models not the GXL's

Some of you must have some real bad Mechs or be bad drivers
if you don't think TII's with very little mods can reach low 13's.
