Cordell Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Get a can of gas and burn off some extra weight, whether you burn it off the car or your ass is your choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flybye Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Your doing it wrong already....Im pretty sure my gtp ran 14.1's before the pulley and tune lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 driver mod... I ran a 14.6 at 93 my first track pass ever. let alone on a stock gtp with 115k on the motor.. ^^ Exactly what I did with my first GTP back in 1997 with 2,000 miles on it. Keep in mind, back in the day that was great. Hence the reason for my screen name. My 99 ended up in low 13's. Headers, tune, cam, not much more than you. Dyno Brian is God.

Snowflake Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 I have 3" FWI, Intense can tune, front PEM, 2.5" d/p with cat, and 3.5 pulley. I run 14.1@97 with a 2.1 60'. If I had headers, good tune, 3.4, and tires I bet I could dip into mid 13s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck531 Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 When I scanned your car at trails it was fat nasty. (typical canned tune). Lean it out, put some headers on it, port the blower, get some rockers (I used 1.8/1.85 on mine) you can get some cheap rockers on CGP these days. You can do the above for $500 if you look hard enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benner Posted September 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 When I scanned your car at trails it was fat nasty. (typical canned tune) True I didn't even think about that. I'd probably pick up a decent bit of power just off the tune. Wan't it commanding something like 10.1 afr at WOT or something crazy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Tires and tune, and I bet you would bet pretty damn close to a 13.5. Tires are one of the most important mods, but people HATE spending money on quality ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tires are one of the most important mods, but people HATE spending money on quality ones. Yeah I'm gonna get a decent set before winter. I may try and pick up a set of drag radials during the winter. I'd really like to do a run with a set of slicks and skinnies and see what it'll do but I don't have the money for that as well as other mods.

Nate1647545505 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 E85 or Race Gas. The 3800 (being a cast motor) is verrrrry sensitive to knock with heads that really don't flow well. You're relying on mildly efficient means of making power (the supercharger). If you aren't changing the means of getting air into the engine, a decent alternative is to consider the octane. On paper, E85 only has a chemical 100 octane, but it can pull so much heat during evaporation (roughly 2x gas) the equivilant octane can exceed 116. This is great for our cars as roots blowers aren't the most efficient adiabatic devices. Pulley + E85/Race Gas under a carefull eye can be a very potent combination.

2highpsi Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Your knock is in the tune (or rather the lack there of) Smaller pulley. Real tune on decent gas (sheetz 93 is the most knock resistant I've found probably due to high ethanol content) No knock, mid 13s, and a triple digit trap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean obviously there were problems if it would shift, but I would have just said fuck it at that point. But you do have a bad ass TA to make up for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Main3s Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 To do it on the cheap, Tune, rockers and race gas = 13's all day! Fuck skinny's and an intercooler. If all you want to do is hit 13.5 don't waist the money/ hassle of changing all the tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowC6 Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 With your current mods, the headers and tune you plan on doing, add a cam to the setup and you should be able to get a 13.5 without a problem. I ran a 13.20 with an intake, 3.25 pulley, S1x cam, headers, exhaust and a tq converter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
