Well guys, over this last winter I whent from a seq turbo system to a non-seq system. I also added a HI-6...but I could'nt tell a difference with it on the car. But anyways here is the results with the same car, and basic mods.

Seq turbo system Non seq
60ft 2.188 2.184
330 5.687 5.591
1/8 8.524 8.305
MPH 89.09mph 94.16mph
1000 10.912 10.635
1/4 12.924 12.600
MPH 114.75mph 116.50mph

Here is a list of mods:
Downpipe
Midpipe
M2 intake
Efini Y pipe
m2 medium IC
Power FC@13psi

I realy need a cat back. I'm shure I could pick up a couple more mph. Bolth runs where on the same exact street tires. But anyways, I wish I could have had a couple more runs. I only got 3 runs from 9am to 3pm. This was the opening day of the track, as its been rained out every other weekend. Not to mention the track was realy slick. Yeah, I know, everyone allways says that. But they just put a new surface on the track out to the 1/8 mile. Later, CJ

...so much for low end stoplight to stoplight suffering.

I know. I just don't wan't to end up fragging the rear end or stock clutch. So i have to take it easy on it for now. CJ

you cant say that...dropping the clutch "drag race" style from stoplight to stoplight would get rather expensive.


ive run my car non seq..haha..you cant fool me.

A late launch would give him a slow reaction time, not a slow 60 ft time.

Good to see a comparision of the 2 turbo setups like that.

Buy some slicks and you should be able to run a high 11!

There are some "pants down" spots with the non seq when a lower gear is too much and the current one isn't quite enough. Just have to be a little more careful when picking fights on the street.

For the most part, I usually turn around a 2.10 to a 2.0 60ft time on these tires. I'm shure I could have cut it some with some more practice. 3 runs just is'nt enough. On that run, (my last for the day) I launched it at about 4,200-4,300. I tried to roll into the throttle, but instead ended up bogging the motor down to about 3,000rpms.

My goal at this point is to run some 12.1-12.0 on true street tires. No drag raidals, or slicks.

My first two rounds I got to race against a volkswagon bus, and a volkswagon pickup truck. It looked like a bus, but had fold down sides, and a tailgate.
It was'nt pretty seeing me slaughter them. Its not realy fair for me to race a 18.0 second car.

It does provide an idea of the effect of sequential v. nonsequential, three tenths and that's a big deal.

Good runs on street tires. If you find a true street tire that gets you to 12.0 or 12.1 be sure to let us know.
