Couldn't go to the track last week cuz of gasket issues but I've got it all worked out now. I was wonder how quick I can be expected to go with my mods. Accufab AFPR, Adj wastegate, stock turbo, 340 hotwired, PowerPlate, K&N behind drivers headlight, Kirbans Pinnon Snubber ,ATR 3inch downpipe, 3inch exhaust turned down before the axel. I'll be using my buddys scan master, new 02 sensor, 25llb boost guage water temp and oil press, and a Mag4 chip for my stock injectors. I'm hoping I can squease a 8.2' at about 82 or so MPH, I'll be on 110 or 118. Which ever is available. Also, should I remove the front sway bar? Suggestions will help thanks fellas, Temp should be mid 60's low 70's. ;)
 
What tires? Will you be locking the torque converter? How much boost? I believe the Mag 4 is a very old chip. I would look into getting a more current chip.
 
you didn't mention anything about tires (which are the most important part of the equation)?

just go and run it.....it is futile to benchrace on the board

don't bother with the swaybar unless you have some sticky tires

8.2 implies high 12's....no way
 
Mickey Thompson 9 inch wide slicks 26 or 28 inches tall, mounted on Ttype wheels
 
well, what are they?

slicks or ET Streets?

how much boost can you hold at the line....

I am not trying to discourage you, but ya gotta go to the track to see where you are:)
 
Slicks, and I can Sixty foot the shioot outta the car, I already did a low 1.9 with these tires and that was when it was bone stock
 
near as I can tell, it is still stock

a 1.9 will help you

lotsa boost, and a good launch....good luck
 
HAHAHAHA! no stock is the throttle body not being by-passed, 3rd bolt in the back of the coil pack still there,a nylon timing chain!, and a nasty 2 1/4 inch exhaust, Thanks AZGN get er done homie. I hope i can cut some 1.8 sixty foots, the breaks on this car stick like i've never seen. Did you read up there on what mods i've done, i know its stock headed, turbo'd and cooled but Damn! I WANT A low 8 SEC PASS!!1!!!!111111
 
I'd go with a Thrasher 108 chip (get TCC lock-up) about 20 psi of boost and a mix of race gas and pump gas that gives you at least 108 octane.

If your brakes hold and the tires stick, a 1.7 60ft shouldn't be too big of a problem once you get your launch down, but it may take a couple trips to the track before that happens.

82 mph is pretty low expectations. I'd shoot for 84 - 85 mph. First times out, get the trap mph where you want it and work on getting the 60fts where you want them.
 
update:::: Car ran 7.91 @ 85MPH, muuuahahhah!!! oh, and I waxed a 2001 GTS viper, 2003 cobra, 99 WS6 with nawwzzzz! ahhh the "stock" GN still RUNS THE SHOW!!!! Mods below!
