What you will do and what the car is cable of are 2 different items.
Read UNGN's launch procedure and you should be ok. Don't worry about the other lane if going for ets.
Car should be in low 12s high 11s but you have to have a good 60ft.
 
Car should do low 12's at about 25psi. boost.

You'll prolly get high 12's out of it. ;)

I learned that the difficult way. :(
 
Hello Stewart!

car should go right in the 9's (1/8th LOL)

You have an 11 second package there, I would say that with minimal tuning and adjustments, car should go 12 teens even with an inexperienced driver.

We have several turbo buicks going solid mid 11s, BONE STOCK longblocks ON PUMP GAS!!! Big turbo, big injectors, alky, good intercooler, chip, and 3" integral downpipes.....very simple!

Best of luck!

To anybody that wants to get a new Intercooler,
Run, Launch, BOOST!! to get a MEASE!!
This thing is HUUUUGE!!!
Best looking Mod on the car
24 psi on the 44 without even trying
Thanks Keith!!
 
best damn investment I have made so far. I have keith's innercoolers on both of my cars. the only problem i have with them is it makes me want to spend more money on the cars. damn you keith. lol:D
