last time out at the track on the stock intercooler and a K&N under the hood, i ran 13.1@102 MPH w/ a 2.0 60 foot. i was on 275/50/15 nittos.

with the adition of my new PTE front mount, a Big mouth style cold air intake and some new 275/60/15 BFG drag radials on a stock T rim, what SHOULD i run?

the car is a heavyweight loaded 87 limited. other mods are in sig below.

what boost/timing combo would be best? i plan on runing 100 or 104 unleaded.

thanks!
 
Do you have a scanmaster? If not, you need one.

Then, more boost, boost, boost.......uh, did I mention boost?

18 psi should get you into the 12's.
 
You and I have very similar combos, except I have a TE-44 turbo. On my run in my sig I ran 23 psi with timing set to 22/20 on the translator. That was on about 104 octane. Only thing is I'm running slicks and was lifting the tire with a 15 psi launch. You might consider buying or borrowing a good set of tires for the track. These cars do all of their damage in the first 1/8 mile and you're giving a lot of that up with the DR's (especially Nittos, IMO).

'course i have a scanmaster, cant run below 14s w/o one. lol

i have direct scan which im hopeing to get hooked up.



im just curious as to what timing people who run fast with stock turbo run.

last time i think my timing was 25*s and my boost was at 20 or 21 in 1st gear and 19 in third.

my MPH was low, either because i was rich or because my car is just a heavy one.
