here's the plan.

95 civic ex coupe(if it matters)
t-25(i have already,and DSM o2 housing)
mani (i have,but needs to be chopped and a flange welded on)
jrc budget 5"(don't have)
450cc DSM's(don't have)
Uberdata(don't have)
ACT Clutch(allready installed)
V-afc (allready installed)
MSD cap and Blaster SS coil (allready installed)
1g DSM blow Off(don't have)
IC piping(don't have)
Stock D16Z6

is it possible???
lemme know your thoughts/ideas

unless its a 305...im betting you get your ass handed to you without a ton of boost. think about it...a 98+ z28 will run high 12s/low 13s with traction

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

technically, a stock one 'could', but really, i see guys take them out to the track all the time and run mid 13's at the VERY best sometimes.

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

watch one with slicks :).....even at mid 13s they are pretty sick

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

yeah, i know with slicks, but chances are, he's asking about pulling on one on the highway, or a friendly street race, i doubt many guys with stock z28's even know what drag radials are :P

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

eh...i still dont give him much of a chance. Near me, everything rwd is running around on slicks or drag radials :( ...so off a roll is your only chance. Anway, ditch that afc and take the cash to put towards other ----

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

Uhhh...not gonna happen with your setup. You'll be lucky to hit a 14.5 in that heavy ass EG. Try dropping in a GSR with a T3/T4. :P

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

i just wanna be able to at least keep up with a bone stock one. i hate it when those fags try and ---- with me. my friend has a 94z28 and at the track stock his beat run was 14 i think, it is an auto though.

and i don't have the money to get a gsr motor or a t3t4

what about rustang gt's, i hate those turds too.

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

just turbo your car and then se if you can beat them, no sense imagining it

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

ya i guess. i got a question about IC piping to. do you have to remove your wiper fluid tank to get the piping around??

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

only if its in the way lol...depends how you route it. (right now i kept mine in, but on previous setups ive taken it out)

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

i'd kinda like to keep it, but if i can't it will have to go. did you route it under the tank?

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

yup

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

thats kind of a pain then huh??

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

it was easy...i have a 94 coupe and it worked out fine

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

thats good. i like clean windows :) but beating a z28 was more like a goal, but i guess its not possible. i'll just have to stomp all the other N/A civics around here then ;D there's only 2 turbo civics around that i know of, hopefully i'll be the 3rd.

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

I don't see how you would have a problem beating a lt1 z28 from a roll at least. I stomped my friend's ls1 firebird from a 3rd gear roll when i was only running 10psi untuned on my y8 in a heavy 98 ex coupe. This was with a small wrx turbo as well.

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

i would get a bigger turbo

Re: turbo set up...want to beat a z28
 

Lt-1, you might have a chance. Ls1, forget about it. Mid 13's are the norm and a good driver with the right car could see low 13's on street tires
