Highest HP A/T DSM, 1/4 mi. Times?

[RuBiCaNT5X]

I'd be glad to host the Fastest AT times on ATDSM.com. I will PM you, Russ with details..

Speaking of AT goals, I hope to be in the 11s in the spring as well..

Russ, no big deal about the updated time....after the first email I sent, I thought about resending it, but was constantly changing my setup, so I figured a faster one would follow....what a load of crap, because since that run last October, I've only made two slower passes.....thanks anyway
Wasn't Bob Friend running right up there with you guys early on?
I can speak for myslef and a few other friends who are highly active on ATDSM.com, at least three of us are going to be shooting for serious numbers in the next few months. I know I've got a bare 6bolt just waiting to be bolted to my trans using Kevin and Johns solution.
Let's keep up the good work guys, and may the race to the 8s begin...errr...continue

So 13.2 is still the fastest listed time for a 2G FWD A/T??? Damn that really makes me pissed that my tranny didn't stay together. I'm pretty sure I would have elapsed that time and then some. Since I ran the 13.6 @ 105 just over 2 years ago! Oh well I have a firend that we are building his Spyder A/T up right now. Should be a beast and should easily be deep into the 12's, if not high 11's. Depending on whether the tranny likes it or not, and wether we can get the billet converter to the right stall.

I thought you switched to a 5spd.

To hijack this thread even more. I guess the battle for 8's is on! I've started my yearly rebuild with the idea of getting at least 250 lbs out of the car. Progress can be found at

Russ I found the timeslip for the pass before the 10.93, its an 11.0 at 121. I can submit that to ya, it should pretty much prove I ran the 10.93. I turned the boost up one more pound and came out a little harder to achieve the extra .10 and .6 mph. I also know someone that has it on video, once I can finally get ahold of that, itll be on record.

My turn to hijack

Russ, I've seen swiss cheese with fewer holes than your car!! Looks awseome.

Since you are on the light weight kick, have you seen these aluminum control arms from specialty products:

It should save a bunch of pounds over the stock steel units up front, plus make alignment much easier.

Man auto trannys are about the ONLY part of a DSM I dont know inside and out. Autos are very specialized, we have stock rebuilds done here in town, and more serious stuff we send to IPT.

[AMS stampy]

Eric is correct. Its something we are capable of doing but we simply do not have the space or the time at the moment. We are currently using IPT transmissions and we are very happy with the results.

Maybe this is a stupid question but would a 5-spd auto yield faster times than the 4-spd and is there one available that can be used in our cars or is this just wishful thinking?

I'm not familiar with any Mitsu that came with a 5-sp auto connected to it in the 90's.

Mitsu used the W5A51 5 speed automatic in the EVO VII over in Japan. Only 2700 autos were made.

How much HP did the A/T model have and do you know what the 0-60 and 1/4 mi times were?

www.mitsubishi.co.jp might have that info.
