Here i found 3 turbos KKK, but i dont know if you like it, they are from a Audi 5000, good for a HMT proyect with an adapter plate that fits those

I personally wounldn't use those but you could easily sell em for the right price.

Lemme know when you get some T3's

Sweet setup btw. Getting back to basics HMT style minus the nice fuel management.

Ok, i solve the bogging problem, the problem was the turbo itself. Now i change the turbo, now i use a Volvo .42 .48 oil and water cooled, and i quit the old ricer design from the crx for a new JDM type

Here's the volvo turbo with MBC

9.765 sec at the 1/8 mile are a good time for my setup at 10 psi?. i was wondering how many time i do at the 1/4 mile because here doesn't have any 1/4 mile track.

No, it's not a great time, but given your 60' time it's credible. If you can launch better your ET will drop a bit... easy 9.3's if you can drop to a 2.0 60'.

Also, your trap speed is a little low... did you read it right? Do you lift off the gas between shifts or hold the gas to the floor for the 2-3rd shift?

There's a LOT of work you can do to the suspension if you want to get serious at the dragstrip!

Yes, i need some slicks to go 9.3's or maybe less, and yes, i lift off the gas between shifts. But my next buy are a Walbro 255 to go more reliable, then, the slicks to get more traction
