Default 12.3 with greddy kit on a sohc! No slicks!

I just wanted to share my new best time.

60' = 2.002
330' = 5.420
1/8 = 8.105
mph = 91.42
1000' = 10.402
1/4 = 12.334
mph = 115.26

I love being able to do this with the greddy kit on a sohc. Boost was 14 psi in 4th gear, 13 psi in the drag radials, still running a stock EX tranny (pegleg).

An intersting sidenote, I had a camera in the car so I watched the footage and timed the 0-60 mph time- it was 3.4 seconds! I am shocked, I figured maybe 4.2 secs at best.

I have run 1.9 60's before, but car wasn't hooking that well at Bremerton raceway.
My goal is to crack 11's with the greddy kit and on drag radials.

I think I might have had it on a previous run but I was bracket racing and let off halfway through 4th gear so I wouldn't breakout. On that run it ran a <U>12.320 at only 99.55 mph because I let off the gas!</U> Now I wish I would've just stayed in it! Oh well.

Thanks for the props guys! I am really proud of the car. Most of the time at the track people think its a turbo GSR, and then when I pop the hood they are in disbelief. Even the V8 guys usually are impressed.

I ususally run at Pacific raceways.

The motor was bored .25 over just to clean up the bores, but the compression ratio is now down from 9.2:1 to 9.0:1, so I figure they cancel each other out. The head, cam, throttle body, intake manifold, ignition, tranny, etc are all stock. Ignition timing is only 1 degree retarded and I run on 100 octane unleaded Sunoco. The greddy kit is also stock, with the stock downpipe and small greddy intercooler. I run with an open downpipe.

I weigh 165 lbs. and the car is gutted. I just took it off the streets last week and am going to trailer it from now on. I have to drive a truck for work everyday and am tired of paying for insurance on a car I only drive like 2-3 times a week, and just for fun. Besides, the temptation to street race is too much, and with a family I can't afford to get in trouble or get hurt. Best to keep it at the track.

The car has a carbon fiber hood, HX front wheels and VX rear wheels, and the interior is gutted. GSR seats, but I plan on race buckets soon. Also no front or rear bumper supports, or heater blower motor, or wiper motor. It still has the airbag though!

Quick question... How are u still running the blue box with that much boost (as far as map sensor goes i mean) I thought the blue box was limited to 11-12 psi because of the stock map sensor...

I know a lot of people say the blue box sucks and that you can't use it over 10-12 psi max, but I haven't had any problems with the blue box. I'm running RC310 injectors at 48 psi fuel pressure with a walbro 255lph in-tank pump, and I've also got a V-AFC wired in to pull fuel at the lower rpm's. I'm not running any fuel correction at 4800 rpm and up. This setup gives enough fuel for 14+ psi. on my car.
