chilli Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 What about with racelogic full throttle gear shifting, that means you can change gear as quick as physically possible whilst still full on the gas, surely that helps a manual make a very quick 1/4 mile? especially with the launch control too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I'd have thought that your budget would dictate your power ability as opposed to your desires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted July 27, 2005 Author Share Posted July 27, 2005 I was planing on the GReddy T78 / T88 but most people say that they lag bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Usmann A Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 78=66mm comp wheel, 88= 71mm both have older design exhaust wheels, with huuge hotsides= great topend,more lag ... newer PTE turbos have bigger wheels in smaller hotsides and use newer garrett wheels. turbo decision counts for alot, go too big and ALOT of things need changing.

Fox Posted July 27, 2005 Author Share Posted July 27, 2005 The only other turbo kit i have been looking at is the Powerhouse Racing Stage 2 + Turbo Kit turbo packages O why can't things be simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel lane Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Its not the Hp you have to look at , its a combination of : how good is the lunch type of tyres you got how good is the tunning - how does the power come in what the weather conditions are how much you eat the previous night , which fat bird is sat next to you theres people in the US getting low 10's on a 600hp car and hi 10's on stock twins .... i have currently running 1000bhp so i recond ill get 7's dead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel lane Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 yep .. especially a good curry so you can add some extra gas into the throttle body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishman Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Steve Whittaker is running low 10's in his manual now. Anyone know what sort of power he's making? His car is running around the 900bhp mark. Mick Begley runs a T-88 in his blue 6-speed supra, which is only producing 545bhp, i think that runs around the 11-12 second mark.

M4RK RZ Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 im heading for the 450 mark at some point - im at about 400 now, ide like to head to 500 and stay put but I want to keep the reliability up. With a good launch, dry conditions, summer wind blowing gently from behind at 450bhp and also 500bhp what times would I be looking at? 12? 11?

M4RK RZ Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Oh and by the way heckler - I have just finished following your LED conversion guide for the supra (also a re-trim) and it looks frickin awsome - cheers for takin the time to do your site :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
