um... if he said he went 10-9 and doesnt have a slip in his wallet to prove it, then he went from stop light to stoplight while the passenger tried to keep an eye on his watch.

I'd say thats pretty damn accurate btw.

BUT: I would imagine a 3rd gencan hit a 10-9... just not if hes always bragging about it and doesnt have the slip in his wallet or framed to prove it

yeah, he's been working long and hard for that. There could be some other factors that helped... several people have been close before.

Baby Twins? Non-Sequential twins are nothing to scuff at.

They're no big single, but they'd beat a stock HT-18

I'm undecided on whether you spelt 'undesided' right I think he did it. Can't wait to see a vid!

Spelt? Maybe... spelled?

Anyway, why is this even a poll? especially in this forum?
How many people in this forum have any experience or knowledge about the stock FD turbos? A select few. So why take a poll of those who's opinion is invalid?

Stock twins can easily put down over 400 rw power. It would take that and some weight reduction...Maybe he ran mid 11's, but just sugared it up a bit

You've never heard of JD? Not like he hasn't been around for, oh, years.

I have never ever ever said this before, but I think your wonderful little poll warrants it:

I've seen MANY 350hp sheets on stock twins. 400 is possible.

Who cares how much hp he makes anyway... HE RAN FRIGGIN 10'S ON THE STOCKERS!!!

what a maroon! try doing some research noob.

lol

Boostn posted a video of his run the same day he announced his break into the tens.

thats not a fact surge...but anything over 380 on the stockers is a great success. 350 is easily attainable with stockers...mods and fuel...good to go at 13-14psi.

i have 340hp low 12 car at 12psi without an intercooler...

imagine what i could do with a massive intercooler, new injectors, fuel rail, pfc, etc other stuff, at 16psi...

waiting until spring to upgrade my car...

edit: very impressive but if i ran a 10.999999 i would never say i ran a 10... however congratulations!

Pretty bold statements. Where's your dyno sheet and drag slip?

Not only that, but have you ever drag raced? Based upon your boasting above, I'd wager not.

Oh, and anything higher than 10.0 and lower than 11.0 qualifies as "running a 10 second pass" last time I checked.

Some of you young kids amaze me........
