dont get me wrong you can run decent times wit stock turbos and make great power, your choice of upgrades just makes no sense to me,

he can detune the car so that the injectors are not a problem but i agree on the fmic and exhaust. fmic's on these cars are not needed unless youre making big hp like 650+. i watched ritch from rzt go 9.8 on stillen sidemounts. so yeah a fmic is overkill.

shooting for low 11's shouldent be hard with the new setup coming for the goat

RayArroyo · 02-26-2009, 09:58 AM

im hoping for at least an 11.5 out of my car on stock turbo

Plans are a new 02 housing, 10.5 hotside and 1000 cc inj for an e85 tune

Buster · 02-26-2009, 10:09 AM

haha so much for stock lol.

phillycivicsi · 02-26-2009, 10:28 AM

I understand that the 740's and fmic arent needed for stockers, i dont plan on having the stockers much longer im doing the supporting mods for gt675's as i go along, hense why the down and test pipes are still 2.4".

i agree and never said it was the right choice, the main reason i got a fmic was so i could reroute the intake. i deleted the intake tree and shortend the intake so the filters are directly under the head lights cut about 2 feet of piping out. Makes me a straighter less restrictive intake flow.

TST got a lots fast car this year. So when is the track day guys? and which track are we going to?
i love it when all these imports drive to the track and run 10s.

Elliott18t · 02-26-2009, 01:44 PM

anyone have some pointers? I would love to run, whenever I get a bigger turbo. But for now even as I am, My times suck just because Im not sure how to drive the track. Ill probably be going to get some practice.

Who cares what your times are, just go and have some fun.

Oh and Mike, my car definitely will not be driving to the track lol. 1.6L SOHC and 10s isn't quite that easy.

Mike what are you saying about those domestics that get trailered and only run 11s? haha

phillycivicsi · 02-26-2009, 03:25 PM

^^lol so true

SoStock92 · 02-26-2009, 03:33 PM

Guys - I recently started a new website/group (I formerly owned BlownEuroz which some may have heard of) and we feature some radically fast cars. I asked Troll if I could spread the word and he's cool... the site is www.new-sweden.com It looks like a lot of interesting dragheads over here. Lot of big turbo BMW over there, but we're open to all things fast. Feel free to check out the builds we have got going on. I am thinking it be cool to have a local meet at some point with all these faster TST cars present. Whatcha think?

That sounds awesome but like every meet there will always be other who attend which turns into basically any other meet unfortunately.
I'd love to see something like that put together, but would rather see a track rental or just have everyone cruise out to a test and tune even more.

SoStock92 · 02-26-2009, 03:49 PM

Yeah we plan on putting something together for a smaller group but a lot of us have some wild cars. A track rental is hard because tracks want a max of a certain # of people at a rental, and that means cost is somewhat high. But yeah definitely a test and tune... but the New-Sweden group is planning a BBQ for May, so I will update you all. Hope to have all the big turbo cars out!
