I have gotten good at guessing ETs over the years anyway, but its nice to see it layed out.

weight 3300
hp 500

et 10.92@124mph

yah right. you have to realize these formulas take into account perfect traction. and making peak hp the entire time. which isn't possible

doesn't take into account my ~550 ft-lbs of torque either :/

i understand that you were just trying to help, but that's about as gay as "guessing" your h.p. with a couple of bolt ons, just because the "ricer" add said "gain up to 12 hp". if you really want to know your et, GO TO THE TRACK!

This mean that if i go turbo and boost about 9-10 psi I'll be hitting 12.85@106 mph...yeah right.
