Slightly different setup to you guys as I have an Evo 1, but with the small 16G, meth injection, 264 Comp Cams and a few more little extras I was running a 12.22 1/4 mile.

I believe hes FWD though. ( Perhaps the time was on slicks?)
He didnt post much info about the pass, like what the 1/8 et or trap was, or what the 60ft was?

Is that in reference to me (not too sure)? If so then let me give you a few more details. I was on street radials and on a pretty poor road surface (Okinawa's roads being coral-based don't help one bit with traction). I do have AWD though. My ET was 114kph and the 1/8 was 7.88s (not great at all). 60ft times I can't tell you because I'm going by figures on my Rev/Speed meter. Okinawa has no set up drag strip to measure 1/4 mile times so this is all I've got. And we've no 4WD dyno to measure power either!

I raced a turbo escort wagon once.

Yeah...not that fast though.

My car is fwd and has a set of MH Racemaster slicks, My 60ft was a 1.9 and the 1/8th mile was an 8.1, nothing special

Good times on my FWD I hit a 12.1 @ 114 with an Evo 3 16G. This was at 4700ft up to. Its all in the first half of the track. Get those 60' times down and bang gears like no other. Did you ever race the guy in the escort or what?

 

[DeadlyEclipse95]

No need to race him, he knows the time and now hes trying to catch up...but hes blown up 3 motors doing so

 

[KPEclipse]

haha now while hes down, think of some fun upgrades that he wont be able to see...and take that puppy into the low 12's...

 

[1qkfwd]

With that MPH you should be able to get that into the low 12's as is. But you could always add a 50 dry shot that will make up in case he starts catchin you.

 

[DeadlyEclipse95]

I guess hes building a motor to keep up with my stock small turbo setup...

Dispite the nuances and headaches, having dsm has it's luxuries .

 

[Black_Bullet]

OP, get some weight out of that thing, it will make a big difference depending how far you want to go.
You can do sleeper weight reduction stuff that noone would be able to spot you did.
If your interested I can give you some ideas!!

I would be interested in what you have to say.

Power on tap?
Gangsta looks?
Ability to hold 450-500hp on stock block?
Frequent clutch inspections due to dropping the trans twice a year?
Never having to be the DD due to the lack of a back seat?
Girls love the power bulge?

 

[dsm-onster]

The power bulge is worth it all!

 

[Black_Bullet]

Ill just pm

I would be interested in some of those ideas,I also just picked up a true Evo 3 16g off of a local, who sold it for only $120, there is no shaft play, it is in great condition, wonder what bolting this on and a new tune will do?

 

[rhamlinii]

Ill just pm

What's the secret?

 

[Black_Bullet]

There is no secrets I was just going to tell him what I did as far as weight reduction; im not saying im ahead of the curve or anything I just didnt want to clutter the thread....
