Apex RX6 1/4mile?

I am new to the board. I have a few questions.

I have 93 touring with:

Apex PFC
Apex GT exhaust
Apex fmic
HKS downpipe
Pettit midpipe
1300cc secondaries
Denso competition fuel pump
ACT semi race clutch

How much rwhp would it have With an aggressive street port with the Apexi RX6 with all the upgrades I have? Also how fast would the 1/4mile at sea level. On street tires and drag tires.

My friend has the Rx6 turbo set up.....I think he was running about 14 psi in his FD at the time. I talked to him yesterday and he raced a 3z tt w/ intake,full exhaust,ecu,and cranked up the boost about 3 psi......and he ran right with my friend in the Rx7...But the 7 was spinning tires like a ****. So low 12's sounds right on street tires...

An apex rx6 turbo at ~ 1 bar should put you in the 400-450 rwhp range. With VERY good driving and drag tires 10 sec passes are possible. With street tires anything less than a low 12 is mighty impressive for any car of any power level for that matter. There are supercars with better power to weight ratios that don't make it into the 11's because of limited traction on street tires. And I've seen cars making 600rwhp that barely break 12's and sometimes even 13's because their owners can't drive and the car just squats and spins in every gear.

In your opinion. How would my setup including the RX6 and street port do against a 95 Supra with a T-78 kit with just the basic bolt-ons, intake,exhaust, midpipe, downpipe and a front mount intercooler? In the 1/4 mile on street tires?

with
No porting, no upgraded fuel system, ecu and stock clutch?

Your car now should run high 12s on street tires. Remember - the more power you add, the more tire spinning you'll get in your 27xx lb FD - especially with a decent single. Drag radials will help tremendously and you could hit a 12.1-12.2 with your setup alone running 13-14 lbs of boost. A T04S is a nice turbo that would help you run with the single Supra. A T78 on a Supra is kinda scary though

from a roll, i dont think anything short of a 450 RWHP FD will keep up with a 650 RWHP+ MKIV. off the line is a different story though...the MKIV weighs about 650-700 lbs more than the FD.

The guy with the supra isn't going to drag it. He is going for streetability. Another thing is that he can't drive either. At the track his time was 15.1 in the 1/4mi. That was consistant for all of his runs. This was before all of the mods.

He wants to race me on the track when I get my turbo upgrade and thinks he will run in the 11s the mods he has already. He isn't going to get anything else. Will the Supra run that fast will the mods he has. His mods are listed a few posts up.

All I want is to run high 11s with the RX6. Is it possible? Is there any other mods I should get?

quickrx7, barry is that you?! Why did you re-register? Haven't talked to you in a while...how's it goin'?

Anyway, u are going to need bigger wheels to accomadate bigger tires. The problem is not your hp but the way you put it to the ground. When all you are doing is spinning the tires you are not going to be going too fast. Bigger tires!!

Is the Supra an automatic, or manual? This makes all the difference in the world. The manual supra is a B*tch to try to launch. My friend has one with bpu+ and I can't launch it to save my life. It the car is an automatic, then driver skill doesn't matter as much, and should be much faster.
