yeah but ur taking it into a 1/4 mile thing.. im talking about a 2nd gear 40 roll 3 beeps... all i need is boost on my single cam v-tec probably 9lbs on my stock internals.. i could rape a sti or evo (stock anyways) but i know on the high end im definitely gonna rape it
I raced an STI with full intake and exhaust, FMIC, boost controller, and who knows what else at the track once. He put it up on the 2 step and had me by 2-3 lengths by the 330' mark. By the time I got traction and shifted to second I was pulling him back in. I put another 4-5 lengths on him between the 1/8th and 1/4. To give you a good example of them having no top end, I ran a 12.1@118mph with a slow 2.12 60ft on street tires. He ran a 12.8@103, but his 60ft was probably a 1.7 or 1.8. After the launch they are gutless. Once you start building engines and swapping turbo's its a whole different story, just like anything else, but when they are fairly heavily modded they still have no top end.
