1/4 mile first time
send your injectors out and have them cleaned and balenced..try the water trick i felt like mine had alit bit more pull after i did that. make sure all your vacuum's are tight and in place. how's the intake filter (clean). check the timing and retard it 1 degree and add an air/fuel gauge.
run some race gas next time your there. change the oil if its due. rotate the tires from front to back if anything else and look around and see if there's any broken or hanging wires anywhere under the hood and put them where they need to be..
theres really something going on if your best is in the 16.s i would stay off it until you find out whats going n and fix it before you need to rebuild it.

Why would he put in race gas if he's not running high boost or advanced ignition timing? Seriously, he should check the compression on the engine and make sure the turbos not shot.. Don't get an AFPR, you dont need one yet, and it will do no good.. IF anything get bigger secondaries and something to tune the car..

get an adjustable fuel pressure regulator to increase my FP, then a boost controller to up my boost to fit the needs of the fuel. is that ok or how should i go about this?? would i need an Air/Fuel ratio gauge?? and a fuel pressure gauge??
here is my fastest time slip yet
R/T..........652
60'..........2.301
330........6.661
1/8........10.324
MPH.......67.02
1000.....13.456
1/4........16.079
MPH........86.06
i was launching between 4500-6000RPM with bald tires and getting decent launchs. that was the best out of 10 runs that night.
some advice from people would be really helpful. it kinda sucks having a turbo 7 and peopel think its fast when i got beat by a monte carlo LS, and a ******* CRX.
thanks alot guys

well i think i found the problem, compression on front rotor is like 45 and the rear is like 80.
im pretty pissed, when i was out drving it tonight it just started sounding really weird and i could barely get any power out of it and it felt like i was only running on one rotor. and it took forever to get up to speed in the gears. i think its blown or seals need replaced because the seals are still in the rotors not falling apart or anything.

45kkm on motor ~ 27k miles. I believe the better rebuild warranties are 2x24 unfortunately. Are you sure you didn't let the engine know it was out of warranty? that'll usually do it. Sorry for your misfortune.
do you have an SAFC or something else to add fuel with? if not it is possible you were tearing up the motor without even realizing it. even moderate exhaust mods you should be looking at ways to add fuel either with a walbro or an SAFC for more precise fuel tuning or even a standalone if you wanted to go all out.

well they guy that i bought it off of said it was a mazda reman put in, in like 02--03 and put the exhaust on at the same time with no cats. so i am thinking he had drivin it for like 40k miles and never did anything about overboost or correcting fuel issues. then when he noticed the compression was low he prolly sold it. and then me being a noob to the trubo 7s i didnt think anything of it nor did he tell me so i could correct it immediatly. so i have been driving it hard for the past 6 months and i guess it finally went. so i have been looking into getting rebuild kits. the seals are still in place just not sealing well at all so i assume all the rotors and housings are reusable and i can just go ahead and replace all the seals.

Yeah a 60 ft time will tell alot.
Example, my first run on my car I ran a 13.6. With the same setup, same day, after learning how to launch the car I ran a 12.04. Launch makes a huge difference. The 60' time difference in those runs was from a 2.3 to a 1.79, Thats about 1/2 second but is like a second and a half on the big end.
