Can i break 13's

[NJ99GSX]

Do you think i could break 13's with the following mods:

shortshifter
intake
full 3'' turbo back, no cats
act 2600 clutch
turbo xs type-h34 bov
turbo xs HPBC @ 15 psi
fuel pump rewire
Dejon tools uip s-pipe and l-pipe
boost gauge
egt gauge

sure...do you think you can?

well, with the stock t-25 and only 15lbs of boost and stock fuel system, I dunno, it would be a strech for you to do, it allso depends on how you drive the car and your 60ft times, not to mention your elavation.

I would say you could hit 14.4-14.8 around that area on pump gas with that hairdryer you got along with that setup. Good luck and let us know.

I would add two things, put some race gas in it, and turn the boost up to 18 psi. If you want to be careful, turn the boost up in steps, like 16, then 17, then 18 psi on succesive runs just to make sure the engine can handle it. Good luck!

i thought it was a waste to go higher than 15 or 16 psi on the t25 cause it loses efficiancy if u go more

 

[candela]

all turbo's lose efficiency after a certain setting but that doesnt mean you cant make more power...

 

[pneumo]

That's why I also suggested race gas. It makes up for the lack of efficiency in the turbo and intercooler. Just get $20 worth on a nearly empty tank, it's worth it.

GET A FUEL PUMP< NEXT MOD!!!

I ran a 14.5 with very similar mods with stock downpipe and I had a cat and I am FWD. I think 13s are very possibly.

A friend of mine, a relatively novice drag racer, in his 99GSX ran 13.98 last summer with virtually that exact mods list. He ran 110 octane, and set the boost to approximately 17-18psi. Just run some good gas and turn up the boost and you should be able to dip into the 13's.

Good luck,

Won't leaded race gas kill the o2 sensor?

you can get no-lead.

I was just wondering if the unleaded flavor would be good enough for 19-20 psi, the highest unleaded I have seen is 104, but leaded comes as high as 114. Just wondering how large the difference is.
