LOL that list is a joke. GLHS hit 15.3 with wheel hop and a terrible start that had him practically going sideways a month ago at the track....... and his trap speed was 98 mph I believe. he is fully capable of hitting mid to low 14s with better tires and his upcoming mods.......not to mention that his engine has 300,000 miles on it and is still stock ported.... I was there and saw it with my own eyes.

Word of advice, don't believe EVERYTHING that you read or hear.... you only know for sure what u experience first hand and then if u r a believer of the mattrix then life is just a big computer program n e way....bah I am tired and philosophical right now.... lata..


Proof enough ?

Higher Compression Rotors

Besidse the 89-91 rotors, are there even higher compression rotors? I know the 787B managed to get so much power(like 170hp/rotor N/A iirc) by using a much higher compression rotor. Sounds like thats what N/A people could really use.

I dont see why its not possible. A teacher at my work races rx7s and hes got a 3rd gen body with a 12a bridgeported. He dyno tuned (carberator) at 250 rwhp so I'd say its quite possible to hit 13 or below depending on weight.

I know of a local guy who runs high 10s... stripped 1st gen with a pp 13B. How fast do you want to spend... err... go?

I can vouch for BlackRx7 as to the validity of his story. I have a 1st gen with a similar setup as he is talking about, and my first time to the drag strip yeilded a best of of 15.4 on pretty much bald 205/50/13's. The car would roast the tires in 1st 2nd and squeal real hard in 3rd before it would hook up. The rear end tended to want to wander torwards the wall in first and 2nd gear so letting up on the gas is the only way for that to straighten out. And this is above 5280 ft @ bandimere raceway in morrison Co.

Oh yeah, this was done with a carb that had a bad accelerator pump as well.

Sorry this is off topic, but what the hell would he do that swap for?

He races nationals. The car was actually a first gen until he bought a 3rd gen body. I dont really know exactly, but its a race car... Somehting to do with classes. Very strict modifications.

Just recently he is now allowed to run an efi system. Hes looking into Motec.

i don't see why it's not possible, either. but, of course, i have not yet accomplished it. this is how i, obviously theorhetically, see it:
i compared it to a wrx. wrx's run what, about 14.1s, right? they have 227 rated flywheel hp, but only put down like 190 to the wheels (i remember its less than 200). the wrx also weighs "3085" lbs with a manual tranny. the main differences are the awd and that the wrx has good torque.
anyways, i'm shooting for 230 (at least) whp and ~2800lbs. with good traction, i'd like to think i could get into the high 13s. guess i'll have to wait and see.

Oh, I'm doing the same $150FC. I think a few things I'm doing differently (much more intake work, and a full Ti exhaust) than everyone else will put me there as well.
