Amp - Absolutely! I went from 10.5 with a 1.5x 60ft to a 10.32 and a 1.49 60ft! My time was 1 tenth quicker to the 660ft and 2 tenths in the deep end

Here is my timeslip from 22/6/02 when I ran a string of 10s with best being the 10.32 @ 133mph

R/T..... 1.045 (2nd run EVER on the strip)
60'...... 2.306
330'.... 6.186
1/8 et... 9.374
1/8mph..77.22
1000'.. 12.109
1/4 et...14.435
MPH......96.78

'90 TurboII - J-spec S5 T2 engine. Running max 5.5psi boost, and slowly LOSING boost up to redline. Full custom 2.5" turbo back exhaust, no cats, OBX muffler. Doesn't boost creep (don't know why) and won't boost over 5.5psi (don't know why)...

 

ummm that's pretty good!!! i ran 13.7 @ 100 with 1.92 60 ft and the stock catback, about 7 psi of boost. if you drop your 60FT you should get into the 13's easily. not a bad run for your 2nd time

 

ok first thing this is my first time at the strip. second thing its an auto, 3rd thing is i think i was only boosting like 8-6-6 4th was i didnt launch it just kinda put the pedal to the floor... here goes try not to laugh ..sadly it was a 3rd gen, someoen please PM me with some pointers or something im draggin everyone down with these times......

1st go
r/t 1.47
1/8 11.15
1/8 mph 72
1/4 time 16.5884
1/4 mph 91.01
(this run i went past the staging lights, and i backed up and the lights came on, i sorta panicked and put it in second hold instead of 1st hold when i realized what happened i was already way behind a z28 camaro but when i got it where it needed to be i sorta did alright from that point i mean)

2nd run
r/t 1.0127
1/8 10.7256
1/8 mph 73.40
1/4 16.1524
1/4 mph 90.76

mods are
high flow cat d/p and catback.... in theory what could i have run with those mods please PM me

 

13.6 or so. I am not sure how much slower the Autos are but with a normal boost pattern I would hope for around mid-high 13's. 16's are for NA FC's. Please fix your boost problem and bring the FD back to respectability.
This is not meant to be harsh at all just to let you know what kind of times you ran compare to and what times I feel your car is capable of. Also I am not dissin' the NA FC's. My friends have them and I love the cars it was just a time reference because my friends' FC runs low 16's.

 

Ok, I am getting faster... every time out its getting better...

Is that with the GT66?

Altitude: Sea level

Car: -83 gen1 w 13B streetport, Weber 55 carb Prospark distriburless ignition, large fmic, Garrett GT-40 turbo (running 11 psi boost) M/T Competitor 205/50/15, stock trannny and rear axle (welded gears)

Had lots of trouble shifting into 3rd gear and a high EGT 1012 celsius. Dragstrip was unprepared. Should be breaking into the 12s next week at Tullinge raceway Swedens fastest dragstrip!

 

No... that is with a 60-1. I have the GT sitting in plastic all sealed up until I get some pipe for a dwonpipe and some time to install it all.
I think the GT66 is going to get me kicked off the track! It almost happened last night.. only .1 second away.
In all honesty, I am a really crappy driver, that's why I need lots of power!

 

I ran my best times on slicks and street tires last night. I ran four runs on slicks. 11.78, 11.73, 11.71 and finally 11.68 at 14 psi and pump gas and was about to turn it up to around 17 psi and give her hell when the track official came over and said no more 11's for me. I took the slicks off and let my friend run them while I strapped the street tires back on and turned the boost up to 17 psi and let her rip. I ran two back to back 12.40's on the streets. I wish I could have ran a run at 17 psi on the slicks as I am sure it would have been around 11.5 or better. Here are the timeslips.

Slicks & 14 psi Street tires & 17 psi
R/T ---- .563 R/T ---- .678

1/4 ---- 11.687 1/4 ---- 12.426
mph ---- 115.06 mph ---- 120.17


I was very pleased and can't wait for some runs on race gas, 17 psi and slicks.

Ok so i am faster now!
1/8 8.16

1/4 12.24

My new personal best was set on Tulinge raceway Swedens fastest dragstrip. Lots of tire hop on ist gear, only 2.01s 60ft. engine runs hard to 8000 rpm with only 13 Psi boost. 11s next year!

 

How much of a difference would the altitude here in Vegas vs. the altitude at E-Town in NJ make at the track.....not that I have my car anymore.....just wondering. Thanks people.
