Wat do you think I will run today!

[HuffRex]

This is more of an opinion. I'm heading to the track today hoping to break in the 13s. I have so far Helix Catback, DC-Sport Up-Pipe, Intake, SBC Stage II clutch, & MBC set at 15.7psi. I've run 14.2 with a 1.95 60'. Wat do you think I could run today?

[TehWagon]

if you do i will kiiiiiill you...

j/p turn up the boost- mike did it w/similar mods / sans clutch! good luck :)

i think 15.7 is pushing it enough hahaa....

[TehWagon]

correct me if i am wrong, people who are more knowledgeable than i, but i am pretty sure you can comfortably go up to at least 16.5... i think mike was actually pushing 17+ when he ran his 13...

[SexyDSM95]

I wouldn't be worrying about your boost, I would be worrying about your driving. Work on your 60'....you need help with that ish. You can easily cut a 1.7-1.8 on a half ass launch (Ask Ash, Allie, and Jerry about this one) and run high 13's.

And I believe Karl ran/is running around 17 psi and he's in the 12's. I am not sure what he ran before his turbo kit and similar upgrades to yours. I think in the 13's whether it be mid/high.

[SexyDSM95]

P.S. If you can "afford" it I would go with a test pipe (or do what I did, test pipe with a gutted cat welded over it. For inspection purposes of course). You will pick up a couple mph's on your trap.

[TehWagon]

test pipe = "race pipe" :confused:

[SexyDSM95]

test pipe = "race pipe" :confused:
Yea the thingie that just goes straight thru to eliminate the cat.

[TROLL]

yup = catless

[Gorilla Unit 33]

i would ay the same thing if u can get your 60ft down high 13's is capable

[TehWagon]

WELLLLLL??????? how'd it go!? :mrgreen:

[Gorilla Unit 33]

...waiting

[SilverTurboRidin]

and then?

[HuffRex]

14.5 @96.5 mph with a 2.11 60'. Not bad considering it took me three races to get the hang of the new clutch. Wasn't beating the crap out of it like i did with my stocker. But I'm happy with the trap speed. Oh well..next season..

[TehWagon]

why next season? there's still time, right?

[Little G]

Yeah, time now!

[HuffRex]

why next season? there's still time, right?
I'm trying to save up and buy a 4x4 truck, jeep, or suv for offroading... Need to work the overtime to save up.

[TehWagon]

oh ok... smart :wink:

(maybe you could save up enough to get me my jeep that i've always wanted!)kthx. :devil:

[SexyDSM95]

Mannnnnggggg just drop that ish at like 5000rpms! Get an under 2.0 60' and you will be golden!

[2point4DSM]

Or you can rev it at 2-3k, slip the clutch a little. That's my new thing this year. Actually, I keep the revs a little lower than that, lol.

Clutches are cheaper than driveline parts.

[TehWagon]

ooooooo good thinkin!

Spinning all four tires is better then bogging the car....someone who is not experienced in "slipping the clutch" will bog. Better to come out like a bat in hell then to sputter, stall, and embarass yourself. Plus a lot of members on here are close to stock or don't have 600-700whp to worry about drivetrain parts once they catch traction.

I assume you have experience with boggin. :finga:

you don't need 6-700 hp to break an 02 wrx tranny =/

[SexyDSM95]

...and missing 3rd but still hitting 13.8

[SexyDSM95]

Mehhh I was thinking more of the suspension drivetrain aspect then the tranny drivetrain.

[xEJ20x]

Apparently 227 is just at the breaking point. :roll:

So how long til I see a 12.9 timeslip? :finga:

[TehWagon]

this, i am not familiar with... i shall plead ignorance *but still hope i don't break afore-mentioned drivetrain bits* :o

[2point4DSM]

Only Sexy can break suspension parts on a hard launch, lol.

[HuffRex]

I have hit a 1.95 60' when i ran my 14.2...i was still getting use to launching the new clutch.

[Orbit]

my trannny is going strong with 290 whp, over 50 launches at atco + a bunch on the street. a 13.07 1/4 and the weak 02 tranny. Oh and stock clutch and turbo.


Apparently 227 is just at the breaking point. :roll:

[HuffRex]

Tonight i ran 13.5 @100 mph. I'm so happy. 1.9 60' Cel came back on, comes on at 85 mph and the car hesitates for a sec. then keeps going. Its pissing me off. I'll be fixing it tomorrow hopefully for Tuesday!!!

[TehWagon]

cool! congrats!!

[Orbit]

nice man !

You could have if you stayed later that night! All my support left me :(

Yea, because you know my stock whp is just madness...don't blame me because I know how to drive.

Congrats on breaking into the 13's! I still wanna see some 1.7-1.8 60' though...
