Low 12's high 11's?
Tried doing a search but didnt come up with any answers, search function reallly broad here. Anywho my question is this:
Current setup: Headers, test pipes, y-pipe UP pulley set -------------------- Goal = Run low 12's or high 11's at track. I want to get a single turbo kit and have the cash ready, however after the current setup I have I somehow someway barely (barely) beat 2 different stock evo 9's one was a MR.. dont call bs lol, I was surprised myself. Back to point. What Mods are necessary to run the times I want? You can even include a shot of nitrous. SAFE MODS too btw lol.... Not 200 shot of nitrous.. |
Turbonetics w/ 400-420 whp, nice set of tires and a good driving skills should do the trick!
|
why a single? JWT's turbo puts out power like a cheap HO. Tranny upgrades will help out a great deal.
|
something to control your timing and a 125 shot will run high 11s
pretty cheap too!! |
You only need about 400whp give or take 20whp to achieve 11's. I ran it with slightly less than 400whp on a Turbonetics Single, Jeremy did it on a 125 shot/bolt-ons/UTEC combo. Somebody mentioned the JWT TT kit, dont be fooled/convicned solely by power numbers or early torque alone, I have yet to see anybody drive a JWT under a 12.7 down the 1/4. Driving, and your track setup is much more important.

If 1/4 mile runs are a top priority, be sure to add the 3.9 Final Drive to your list.

Thanks for all the replies! I forgot to mention lol....
"is LOW 12's or 11's possible WITHOUT turbo or supercharger kit?" Are bolt ons alone with a shot of nitrous able to hit my mark? I want the car to be a sleeper lol. What the biggest shot of Nitrous the stock motor can handle SAFELY? any kit recommendations? Which bolt ons will help me get up their? Like I said , I never ran the car at the track yet, plan on going weds with current mods. I believe it will run low 13's shooting for at least 13.1, I'm a very good driver, and beat alot of cars somehow that run 12.9 stock or 13.3 stock. |
shouldnt really use "biggest shot possible"and "safely" in the same sentance.. :)
low 12s will be here soon naturally aspirated, i think they are very possible. a few of us are running high 12s NA with a few bolt ons. with high compression pistons, headwork, and few other things, we WILL be seeing some low 12 sec NA cars. i was running 150 shot on a car with minor bolt ons and retarded timing. it seems to run just fine... |
While I do think low-mid 12's is possible NA, I dont think we'll see it in a LONG time. Gonna take more than an impressive mods list to do it....run your car on Wednesday and get back to us with the results.

So a 125 shot will push my car into the 11's with my bolt on mods huh?
75 shot would do low to mid 12's? |
