Let me be very careful with my words here. Yes, your car will be capable of low 12's or better when it's running. Is that with you behind the wheel, I don't know. Is that at your local track, I don't know. The traction factor is the only thing keeping me from saying 11's will be no problem. If you were AWD with all the stuff you're doing, I would expect mid 11's. Driving and track conditions are the big factor for FWD. You should be able to get some 120+ traps ether way. Is Wes going to help you tune it at the track?

yes.. Wes is tuning it with his wideband o2 on local streets then we are taking it to the dyno and track most likely.. If I hit 12.999 Ill be a happy camper but its nice to know that comparable eqipped FWD dsm ran low 12s on it so I have a goal to shoot for..

GSTBoostin-
The guys name is Eric D. and I think he lives in Tampa same as you. Do you know him? He hangs out on DSMTalk and told about the times in the Parts section. Under a thread called "JUst got my Ball Bearing turbo today". It's still near the top if you want to check it out/ ask him questions.

Larry-
You're in good hands, and I think you're putting together a faster car than you think. I don't know if you're just use to being let down by the performance of your car or what. But when you get it together and tuned, I think you'll be smiling from ear to ear.

MPH is definately easier to get than good E.T's.... I am the king of good MPH, and never had a good E.T.

Thats why my brother drives my car at the track...

May my poor car RIP.....

low et's = tranny problems...a trap of 115 or so would b satisfactory with me...that should kill almost anything from a roll on the streets
