I have it running off the stock relay.

Off to rockingham, nc guys! Wish me luck in the 1/4 mile. I will post up times and videos!

do work my dudee, good luck!

Cheers bro hope u get good numbers bro !!!

Well guys i feel like i let us down. Couldnt run faster than a 14 flat... too much wheel spin and not enough grip. .533 reaction time and 107mph over the line

Put that e153 in there id say youll be running 13.5. For your first time out on a track id say you gave it hell. if anything i let 6gc's down. haha

the 3sgte with a s54 trans is a 13 section track car and a 12 sec street car, dont let that time let you down.. on the streets from say a 20 roll you could argue for a 12 sec car..the cars dont do to well from a dig lol 107mph is just about a 12 section pass.. just wheel spin killed you.

my 3s/s54 beat a hatch that on the street that went 13.2 on the track to give you an idea.

14 flat isnt bad for its first time out, atta boy Ben!

The car caught up like a missile on everyone i raced, like you said Ted95...from a dig that gear ratio kills you. Beat a wrx automatic but couldnt beat a manual. These were non-sti's but i was catching up quickly.

3rd gear prob saved you on every pass right? how much boost were you running yessterday?

I was running in variations between 16-17psi. 3rd and 4th save me!

Close to a half-second r/t is generally regarded as pretty fine, eh? Well done.

And i still have yet to figure out why they were running pro tree. That messed me up probly more then ben. Ebrake trick works though.

Here is the 1/4 mile compilation video featuring Celica74 and myself http://youtu.be/BmCWNojuyk4

did a good job Ben, the car pulls good once you get traction. you will solve alot of that issue with a set of BFG's KDW2's in the front. those tires hook and make a big difference in first a second gear, as well as a few poly mods too. thats what im running and i love them.

Ben i wish we had the camera facing your car so we could compare launches. You did great holding it in boost.

Im already looking at getting some wider wheels! Ive got to get that drag time down!

yes! wider wheels and turn your boost down a smigen! when I went to the rock this spring I ran a 14.2 on 8lbs maybe 14 lbs will tame that wheel spin
because i could straight up launch with no tire spin on 8lbs

Well guys I decided after the results that I put down at the track that it was time for some much needed suspension/handling/braking upgrades.

What I have:

Celica GT4 front calipers
Cadillac Catera Front Rotors

What I just bought:

XXR 530 et25 5x100 17x8.25's
73.1 to 54.1 hubcentric rings
project KIKS two step 40 gram lugs
d2 racing coilovers

Still debating on what tire size to run because I don't want an inaccurate speedometer, but I can't decide on the tire width...

What are your thoughs?
