Sick, I'm excited.

I've only seen Helder's car in person out of you 3.

Man the paint on that thing is so nice, and the low grumble.

Nice.

You should have seen the reaction here, when I claimed a 14b could run 12's a long long time ago. Boy did I hurt a lot of feelings here back then, HAHAHA.

Salomon, that was more of a rhetorical question

Bottleneck setup, but I'm sure Darren has some other excuses

Well that's all out for the strip.

I'll be dd'ing with 91 pump. Haha

Probably, but a HTA68 is hardly the same as a small 16g. As mentioned, I ment in similar trim




Or it could be that I don't really care much about drag racing anymore & going out to break parts isn't what I call a good time If I was serious about drag racing my car wouldn't be setup the way it is. I'll get there eventually, but when the tracks slippery enough, that your able to spin all 4 gears when you hit boost, your not going to be setting any records

Ryan on here was the small 16g that beat the gt30r, he said he was pushing about 40lbs/min on meth.

Wow that sounds pretty powerful Daren !

What time of the year did you go to the track ? What was the mph on that run ?

No, I think just stupied slippery track. First run of the day, car started to twitch sideways when I put the brakes on after my run, woke me up quick.

Saw several slicked cars lose control, some crossing lanes. Was told the annoucer actually said stop putting water on the track. Not sure if was from guys driving througg standing puddles around the track or guys were rolling through the water box & not doing burn outs.


The run that I spun every gear when I hit boost I aborted (other runs were spinning 1-2 or 1-3), at that point I was so po'd with track conditions, I gave up.

I was only running 28-29psi. It was the end of Oct, probably like 5 deg & cloudy, so think the problem was the track just wasn't drying properly. Lots of slicked cars as well, which probably didn't help with their front wheels always putting down water.

Edit: Hard wheel hop in an awd is not fun

One of the best setups this year, using a small turbo.

Mistaken...

I wouldn't call myself a "pioneer" in small turbo go-fastness but I'm pretty happy with what the S16G did on a mostly full weight DD 2G. The NLTS kinda helped out with that.

I'm really anxious to see what this HTA Green will do at 30+ psi.

Just so you know, running less than 30psi voids your membership to TPG+meth . So don't be running 20-25psi like the other Green owners on here .

lol Ryan ran 30psi + Meth on a 14b I can't see him doing anything below 30 psi

HEY!

....I'll get to 30..

^^^ Just teasing lol

Haha I know, no worries. Besides, I could use the odd motivational poke

I hear life begins at 30 pounds

I'm going to give this a try. I don't have anytime right now to take my Front bumper off and install in a FMIC. But got my HKS cams in, Going to put in my fuel setup and my Evo16g .

Just have to smoke my cousins WS6 for now which probably runs low 13s.

That's the best way to describe it

Well to give you a comparison, friend of mines has a stock WS6. I was on the evo3 16g and sidemount at that time, and still had a good 4 cars on him up top. He went and spent $10k on a vortech supercharger, I upgraded to a FMIC and installed a meth kit. Best he ran with the supercharger is 13.1@118 mph , where I flew right into the mid 11's @ 120mph. Now my car is just balls faster than his and he dyno's at 550 WHP.

^^ Hmmm.. thats strange; my friends stock '02 Firehawk does 13.3's, can't remember the mph. However he is a very good driver.

Firebird's are heavy pos's imo

Tuning. And I never did like that turbo.

My new setup will have a TD05H 20G that will hopefully get in the high 10's and still be nice to drive on the street. The 35R made it more of a highway, not street car.
