Possible 1/4 Mile Times?
What do you think I could run in the quarter with the following mods? Running 12 psi of boost.

oh stop messing with the guy. Well you have a big area for times. Ive heard of guys run from low 13's to mid 14's depends on alot of conditions. if your trying to figure it out for a race. You should be able to handle or keep up with anything in the high 13's depending your a good driver

Honestly, this type of question gets asked about 12 million times a day. There are TOO many factors to consider when asking this type of question.. Everything from track prep to driver to car tune, etc... Too many variables to predict.

If you suck you'll run a 14.5.

If you're good you'll run a 13.5.

There ya' go.

probably bc he doesn't want to blow his engine. running 15psi on a stock turbo and TMIC = KABOOM!

My buddy ran a 13.1 on a similar setup, except with stock ports and 15psi. He dyno tuned his Rtek with an SAFC though.

I think you've got low 13's, maybe even 12's in that car if you get it dyno tuned with a wideband.

Rim size has nothing to do with that. Its the overall diameter of the wheel + tire. The stock wheel/ tire combo is larger than the setup I am running now. My 60ft. time would increase.

Rim size does make a difference...because you have added weight AND less sidewall to flex. Try taking off on a wagon wheel...... 16's are much better for initial take-off grip.

17's arent way heavier. The stock 16's are pretty damn heavy, but I get what your saying. I also get what jkimbro is saying too.
