Default Those With Prochargers Post Your 1/4, RWHP and Other Mods

I'm just curious to see what sort of numbers guys are putting out. I would like to see if those with various mods, IE: HF cats, headers, plenum or ECU flash are producing higher numbers.

My numbers with a 5AT:
1/4: 13.1@105
RWHP: 368
RWTQ: 298
Mods: Procharger, Stillen exhaust

Just did a few quick 0-60 runs with my new G Timer 2.

I hit 4.72 on my first attempt with VDC off. And I was not power shifting or slamming the tranny particularly hard. While it's not bad for a first true attempt, I'm sure I can do better. I had to stop due to it getting dark and not wanting to tempt my fate with the local cops. Details of the run are as follows:

0-10: .35
0-20: 1.02
0-30: 1.67
0-40: 2.85
0-50: 3.80
0-60: 4.72

60 ft: 2.00

Mods: On the plus side - Procharger, JIC traction rods, Stillen exhaust. On the minus some added weight from - 19" wheels (HREs), a custom stereo with an MDF subwoofer box, the touring package and the Nismo body kit (the wing weighs a lot more than stock).

Couldn't do 1/4 time as there just wasn't enough road and it wasn't the rignt kind of location for that kind of thing...

How 'bout posting the type/brand of dyno, and maybe even the location? Also, numbers corrected or not corrected? And altitude, conditions for 1/4 times? Without this info, it's pretty hard to compare any numbers...

The hp numbers are very nice, but anyone else feel the mph is pretty low for a car with over 400hp?

When I had my 99 Eclipse I ran a 105, 106, and 107mph trap and I doubt I even had anything over 280 to the wheels.

I know of a local 240SX with an SR20 motor that ran 109 some time ago with only 240whp, 126mph with 393whp.

I know the 2 cars above are different but my Eclipse weighed about 3200lbs, the 240SX was a full interior street car as well, which is close to the weight of the Z.

Not trying to put anyone down, just stating my opinion and I feel the Z should be traping higher than the 105. Just doesn't seem right.

Default This is why the MPH is low....

5AT means automatic and for anyone that knows anything about drag racing... Automatics have lower trap speeds. Others with less HP with 6MT's and prochargers are posting higher trap speeds with higher times. This is normal in drag racing. An automatic is easy to launch and a lower time is easier to achieve . To give you an example, my TT 6MT supra (before BPU and single T) did a 13.2 at 110. It had a great trap speed but a poor ET.

Gary: My dyno was done in KC, Missouri at MC Racing. The dyno was corrected and the temp was about 88 degrees after about 6 pulls while tuning the FMU. What were your numbers?

There must be others that have gone to the track that can post their times. Post away...

I know 5AT means auto, and I have a clue about 1/4 mile drag racing, but I've never owned an auto so I don't have any previous experiences with an auto at the track. If you're fine with it I guess that's all that matters.

Funny thing is, my first time out with my stk 6spd Z , I ran a best mph of 97 while my friend's stk 5AT ran 101. Ironic don't you think?

may have been drivers.

but none the less Id hope for better than 13s with that much hp.

you have better tread or anything or is traction limiting you? basicly what was your 60 foot time?

just seems a bit slow in both MPH and time for that much power.

97mph is pretty low for a stock 6MT and 101 mph is pretty high for a stock 5AT. What were your times? Granted there are only a few mph different but I would have expected them to be the other way around. If you tell me your time was faster than your friends than I will know something is not right.

Ares: There is no traction in 1st or 2 nd gear. You may also know that the autos don't shift at full boost (ecu or f/c problem)so I had to shift early before the power of the S/C really got going. I would say I shifted at about 4.5 rpms. This is definitly a 12 sec car without that issue fixed. My first pass I did a 13.4 at 100 mph. I laid rubber completely through 1st and 2nd. My 60 ft with the 13.1 time was 2.1.

Thanks for the info. Your hp is very high. I had 345 rwhp 296 rwtq. This was on a Dynojet at Altered Atmosphere in Maryland, uncorrected numbers (barometer was broken), and high humidity with temps over 100.

I'm not a drag racer, so I don't have any 1/4 times. For my purposes, the ATI did the trick though, its loads more fun to drive.

The times were somewhat normal for the mph. His I believe was a 14.1@101 (5AT), and mine was a 14.5@97 (6MT), and I agree that it is pretty low. I was pretty pissed and dissapointed.

I'll agree...My automatic Camaro SS (with stall converter) ran a 12.5 @108 last year. My buddies in 6 spds trap in the 110s.
