From the vid it sounds like you can shift a little faster.

Also you need to raise your rev limiter, good luck

You have a lot of room to improve. What was your trap speed?

Thats crazy my IX with turbo back exhaust and HKS intake make the same power on 24psi 350whp and traps the same. As you sit you have an llsec car with the a good launch. I just ran 12.01@113 w/1.6 60ft so I know with those numbers you can run 11s but you either need to turn up the boos and add rac gas and youll see 450+hp or just get a smaller turbo like a fpgree that will make about 10-30more hp @23psi then you have now

you sea level guys need too chill out!!!! have you ever ran your stock turbos @ 5k feet above sea level????
some cars just don't make as much power period!!!!!! cut the guy some slack he has the extra lag now & it's harder to stay in power plus big turbos are dog**** on low boost
i think is 12.4 is fine really put some race gas in that thing & turn the boost up....

Wow I either hope u are kidding or sponsored by ams....how could you make such a naive comment like that? David buschur makes quality dyno pruven products...its not his fault some kid took his parents money and dropped a gt35r kit without a good tune and on only pump gas on a turbo which really likes to play from 30psi on up...doesn't the buschur/wartalon package yield you 330hp and 12.0 et times on a 9?

I hope this kid didn't buy this mr to drag race....I know someone who made the same mistake and wound up getting a shepard 5 speed

1 problem is i have to shift to 5th
another would be, i have a bad exhaust leak coming from my hotside, my whole turbo setup need to be tightend or somethign
Where exactly is the exhaust leak coming from? From where it connects to the o2 or where the hotside connects to the rest of the turbo?

ok, holy shlt this thread talks alot of crap lol.

let me clear alot of stuff up.


First off, i have alot of room for improvement, i know this. im still learning to launch and shift really fast.

My launch was a 1.9 60'

My exhaust leak is from the hotside to the turbo.

im on a conservative tune, the run was done on pump 93 @ 23 psi

Your wasting that turbo at 23psi. You could've maxed out the stocker and ran an 11 somethin for a fraction of the cost

I see a new drivetrain and/or engine in your future
.. my mods = my money. im paying for my mods, relax.

Im doing 100% meth, AEM EMS, Headstuds, LICP, and a custom tune soon so i should see alot more power at about 30psi

Right now im not trying to run AMAZING times, im just trynig to do the best I CAN DO.. if i wanted to run 11s i would of kept stock turbo n did things alot different but i decided to take the big turbo route.


Hopefully for my bday ill send my car to buschur for a 2.3l stroker stage 3 head, and alot of other things.
