8 second 1g build thread.

[reddragon1]

Well I have had the idea rolling around in my head for a while so this build thread is long over due. When this build started I had a 90 panda TSI. Then a very nice blue GSX That was already auto came into play. But to make a long story short I started collecting parts winter of 2013 and spring is right around the corner I'm a few parts shy but I'm getting there and getting there in a hurry I would think. The engine is a 11.5 to 1 wiseco pistons with Manley I beams. The head is being ported by a local porter here in Kansas City the care will be powered by a 6766 precision unit. I'm planning forcing 50 psi down in the little 2.0 with e85.

That setup sounds like its going to need alot of fuel, which fuel pump are you planning on running?

 

[reddragon1]

I have a walbro 450 feeding a surge tank to a magna fuel 750

An update my magna fuel 750 pump showed up now waiting on a surge tank and a bunch of fitting and a 255 in line for the nitrous to have its own stand alone fuel source.

Looks good, what size/type of wheels are those? I'm in the search for some new wheels for a slick setup.

 

[reddragon1]

They are 15x8 25 off set they are str racing wheels cheap but they serve what i need so im not bitching.

I love the wheel/tire combo! Lots of meat with those tires... Looks mean!

What made you go DR's over Slicks if you don't mind me asking?

 

[reddragon1]

Drag radials hook good too. The reason I use them is mainly that they don't run out as fast also driving on slick on the street can get wobbly from time to time.
