This alone will cut 3/10ths off of his time and with a good exhaust and more boost, you get the point. Needs to be a minimum of 115mph to get into the 11's on DR's

Jim some of us have been drag racing for along time as well. I can't tell you how many times i've been down the track in the 10-11sec range. I believe I was the only one that made that bold statement but look again not so bold. Not trying to be a jerk but I was not implying it was a 11sec car as it sits or with it's current power. No offense taken.

Nice... As a comparison point, I basically have the same mods as what you have minus the pulleys, plus a slipping stock clutch. But I have the APS TT instead of the TurboNetics and I have a G35, not a 350Z. I ran 12.72@114.2 last weekend. Here is a video of it: http://www.science.uottawa.ca/~paul/.../G35_12sec.wmv

Cheers,

With my stock exhaust, it's hard to hear anyway... You're right, it was some kind of big block Chevy running 9s...

Dont hijack the mans post. This is about his Turbonetics 1/4 mile time, if you had a T-netics and wanted to post your time for comparison go ahead, but you coming on here with a different kit, and different car is worthless. Start your own post

With that said like I told Z PHAT Z- I do think his trap is WAY low, he has 100whp over me and traps the same, 1mph higher at best. Id say practice on your shifting more than anything, your launch isnt all that bad. Keep getting out to the track and you will see your times drop, and hopefully traps go up. You should be over 112 imo with 360whp.

LOL! My intentions were not to highjack the thread. I just posted for the benefit of all members to be able to compare and I also agree that his trap speed should be higher.

Later,

Thats cool, but your comparing apples to oranges man. Different cars, different kits, your times arent relevant to what we are discussing
