Just curious who is running what times with the fewest parts?

I've read of a few running 11's with the stock turbo and intercooler.

One running 9's with a V-4 stock location ic but with larger turbo,pp heads,alky inj.,bigger injectors,etc.

I know the tune of the car and also the driver has a lot to do with what performance you will get out of any combo along with the track conditions and traction. :smile:

Please post your et / mph and what part or parts to achieve them.

11.9s @114/115 .. stock TTA with a chip and a K&N.. M&H dots, race gas, shift kit.. Stock everything else from what I can remember.. That was back in 89/90 :eek:

GN... few mods with a V4 STREET car 9.94 @ 138 :cool:
 
You'll probably get more info by reviewing signatures with just a scan of "several threads". Either way--answers will be all over the place,,,
 
I know i can and have looked at signatures of members to see what they have listed in them.:D

I started this thread for a few reasons one of which it will keep admin from sending me a message suggesting to me to post a question or reply to a thread to help out a fellow tb owner with a question or problem. ;)
