***TURBO SINGLE CAMS IN FLORIDA
 
I have a friend that wants to race a fast turbo single cam. He has a gsr on like 5 psi, the car moves dont get me wrong, but I think somone out the can beat him. Is there anyone that can race him to prove that single cams arent that slow?

:'(I wish I moved out there(Jacksonville area)last year. I have some relatives living in Lake City. I was going to get started with my cousin in the insurance business. But, A herniated disc has kept me in Longmont, CO for the time being. I don't have a "single cam" car, but it is a real "sleeper" that leaves s-charged 4.6-5.0L Mustangs about 30+ CAR LENGTHS down the highway.
I have a 1988 GTX AWD TURBO w/a tiny little 1.6L Mazda 'B6T' in it, OH! with a knive-edged forged crank, forged rods, ROSS pistons & rings(7.8 to 1 Comp.), The block was decked and O-ringed to handle 28 PSI of boost and a 75 H.P. shot of NOS.
I won't give away my 1/4 Mile times. But, this is "ONE OF THOSE AWD CARS" that truely needs 4 slicks to hook up in 1st-3rd at the track. I love driving on the street at 30-45 mph and simply push down the your right foot for "all wheel drive burnouts". After grenading 3 J-SPEC trans., I shelled out $5000 for a sequential 5-spd.(they used them for PRO-RALLY racing). This has held together quite well, and decreased my 1/4 times by 5 tenths of a sec. BONUS!!
But, to be honest, I was "spoiled" by the car I owned 4 years ago-(A street legal-10 sec. S-Charged 1970 NOVA SS(496 CU.IN)with DOT tires. Now, I think it would be fun to get a 1994-95 Supra TT- and become a member of the stock-crank/ 900+ whp club. Also, with the STAND-ALONE system, you can easily get 20+ Miles to the gallon with a simple program swap/download.

hey guy. shut the ---- up about your gsx. the record time for a street legal gsx was like 8.57. and this is impressive still but this is homemadeturbo not steward raceing. im sure that after 2 car leingths the guy in the other car slows down because hes realised hes lost not 30+. people arnt that dumb "omg hes got 10 cars on me MAYBE I CAN CATCH HIM". oh anyways ---- you for braging about all that expensive ----. - caleb

oh right, i didn't catch the wish part.

Well being at sea level is a lot better then being at high elevation. Just think, maybe your crazy AWD car could pull 5 second quarter miles if it had the richness of oxygen at sea level :-X

I live in Lakeland, FL. My car ran 14.6@96mph on a shake-down run a few months ago ( only got one run in ).

Since then I'm had some boost Gremlins to work out. My car should be back together soon, may I can meet him at the bradenton track...

14.6 was at 10psi, stock Z6 clutch slippping, FULL FULL tank of gas, 6000rpm rev limit, and using stock 1.5'' exhuast from the cat-back.

The gas tank problem ( incorrect fuel pick-up ) has been fixed, still going to run 10psi if my clutch will hold, prob. run open DP next time at the track, working on fixing my 6000rpms shift point problem, and hopefully its lost a few pounds since last time.
http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/max...bum?.dir=/fd1a

Still not sure I could beat a 5-psi GS-R ( lots of varibles ).

If I can't beat him, there is always a few "still neons" SRT4s there that would prob. beat him, hehe.

Re:***TURBO SINGLE CAMS IN FLORIDA
 
I'll race him.. SOHC + 10psi on 60 trim turbo + uberdata + lots more ;) Located in Orlando.

rainman 07-19-2004 10:40 PM

Re:***TURBO SINGLE CAMS IN FLORIDA
 
Thanks for the replies keep them coming. Okay this car is no joke even though he onely 5psi. 14.6 definelty wont beat him. The car is fast for what it is. I'd say at least a mid to low 13 sec car. Full interior and all. So if you feel like you can then let me know. Thanks yo.

chingro4u 07-19-2004 11:22 PM

Re:***TURBO SINGLE CAMS IN FLORIDA
 
wait a minute......i just realized that you said his car was a GSR.

on 14psi with uberdata (yea i know it is crazy shyt with 11:1 compression)
I have smoked a 13.5 GSX, and a 13.3 VR4
and i smoke a B20/VTEC civic, and the guy claims he ran 13.5, but he was nowhere in site....i think he is in the 14's.

So I'll race him.....my car is ready to run....PM ME



oh.....i have a 1.6L motor, and i will run 5psi to even up the boost level.

89dxhunchback 07-20-2004 02:09 AM

Re:***TURBO SINGLE CAMS IN FLORIDA
 
ask him if he'll race a 3800LBS. V6, hehe. Most honda guys would...

tekno9998 07-20-2004 08:36 AM

Re:***TURBO SINGLE CAMS IN FLORIDA
 
Um yeah your dsm would own him. One good awd launch and hell see taillights the entire time.

89dxhunchback 07-20-2004 09:12 AM

Re:***TURBO SINGLE CAMS IN FLORIDA
 
12.6@109mph with just fuel mods, hehe.

what the hell is going on in this thread, now people are talking about cars again and ----.. I thought 14bng just owned the one dude that said he had some sort of jet fuel powered super car type ----?

This thread needs to be deleted just for the sheer factor of confusion ???
