Thats the stupidest thing I have read all day. I guess suspension has no effect on 60ft. Its a stock suspension car. Plus everyone knows its harder to 60ft a turbo car then a n/a car that has 400tq. Not only just that he has only a handful of passes on the setup. Give him a break and use your head.

Yeah, I just have a handful on mine too. I see other turbo transbrake cars putting down killer sixties, and non transbrake turbo cars putting down sixties very similar to his. Glad I didn't drop 8 grand on a box of parts to produce NA ETs/sixties.

And I 60' very similar to your numbers with a 3v N/A. Glad I didn't drop money on a brand new 5.0 and then another XX amount on a Boss motor...

...that drags your turbo down the 1/4 mile. Don't act like I have some pricey car either. $28k for the car, then bought the Boss engine and sold the stock one for about a $1500 difference. You wouldn't have done that if you had the same opportunity?

LOL I thought we were talking about 60'. I did what you have done with atleast 100 horsepower less and with a stick mind you! I have never tried to take away from you guys until your buddy started downing other people shit. Point is yalls shit is impressive but it doesn't mean its the best way to do it. Like I told WTB, how much faster can you go N/A? For me and my shitty foundation...well we can go a lot faster than 10s.

Don't forget all your other parts and money you've spent lightening the car up. Let's not forget that. It's all taken you how many years to get to that ET and 60? That's literally the BEST you can do. Chris slaps a kit on and does what you do on accident. All the while the car twists, lifts and goes every which a way but foward on launch. And in a heavier car no less.

When did I start charging 8k for my box of parts? I thought there was only one company that charged that much and it ain't me. Hmmmmm

Sorry a turbo car with lots more power should be killing an n/a car. Even with stock suspension cause the mustangs do great with stock suspension. Guys have went mid 9s with it. We talking a 460whp(guess) vs 650whp(guessing low) and turbo car having least 220wtq more. Even with same 60ft turbo should ET lot better.

I have to disagree with this statement; at my track rental in Oct I raced a friends 79 NA Camaro numerous times whose best run was an 11.5@117; he crushed me out of the hole with an avg 60 ft of 1.6/7 and I was around a 1.8 all day; I did not run him down until well past the 330 mark and probably closer to the end.

And though I don't have a dog in the fight and watching/reading since I have an automatic and need help launching it there are inconsistencies about whether or not there is a 2 step; it did not help when the one guy said he was on the 2 step when Chris/Dustin have been denying there was a two step the whole time.

I wish the two sides would have a civil discussion on it without the mud slinging so all of us could learn/benefit; if one of the sides is trying to keep info from us because they want to market it, that is understandable, if that is the case then just be quiet about it so people don't ask questions.

Looking at sigs he is half a second faster and traps 3mph more then your turbo car. Yet you say you was faster. So you went from n/a being faster to a turbo slow car?

Stick cars are much easier to 60' than an auto car until you've gone very far with the auto.

My 08 GT500, pulley, tune, slicks, 4.10's, 1.39's.

When you can dump the clutch at 6-7k, your gonna 60'

Listen if you are gonna read and comment, please read everything. Let me say this one more time.

Just cause its not in the video does NOT mean it did not happen. Hell yea I have a 2 step on the car. I use it on the foot brake @ about 2500rpm. Problem is when I crank it up to 3400rpm and try to lightly hold the brake pedal to get it to activate the 2 step because I have not had time to re-wire mysetup, I forgot, and that sir...is the video you see. There are alot of local guys that I have shown. :deadhorse:


cliff notes: In that video, Car launches on 4psi, ~3500-3600rpm NOT on a 2 step. The car DOES have a 2 step, and some people have seen me on the 2step and brake...but thats another topic cause we are only talking about what you guys can see and hear in the video.

Like I said, we test and do things outside of the video.

Yea and...I did that with a bolt on 3v. So like I said some where around 100 horsepower less.

And I did it full weight driving 2hrs to track. And as said 60ft is easy in manual. 7k launch and boom great 60ft. Don't need lot power. Its rest that of the slip that speaks. And think now your tutbod car is .6 and 8mph off my sc 5.0 still full weight of 3800lbs+ lbs. And your turbo car is .3 faster then my bolt on manual 5.0 and traps 2mph...haha...great turbo kit you have.

And if your n/a 3v was so fast as you make out you wouldn't went tutbo.

And junior...lol...some tuff guys on interwebz...


Matter fact my stock 5.0 with a tire cut 1.61 60ft..just shows benefit of manual on launch.

LOL ok. I was full weight minus a K member. I'd be pissed if I was only .6 faster with 600~. You can't have it both ways. Is it hard as hell to 60' an auto(Great reason the tbrake car did not cut a good 60') Or wait...is that considered going far with an auto?

What all does your magic box consist of? How many relays or components or parts from radio shack are in it and what are they.... Basically tell me what I need to buy exactly to make it.... Then hopefully someone with the brains here can construct it based off of the materials needed......
