I talked to the guy thats guying to port and upgrade some oil components of my new engine last night. I asked him how much HP i should get with what he is doing and the stuff im putting on. Standalone ECU with 10psi, 12psi, and 15psi settings, Downpipe, Cat-back, Intake, and the big streetport. He said that I should get around 320-335 RWHP or around 370 at the flywheel. Stock its 255 at the flywheel at 10psi boost. 13.9 in the 1/4
I also asked him how fast this would be in the 1/4 mile. He said that it is should be able to hit high 11s 11.88 or so.

My question is this accurate? Im kinda skectical about these times. Im was thinking mid to high 12s

With my luck though this will never happen. I will end up messing something up and my car not running with about 3.5k missing out of my savings account.

I sure would think not. I met an RX7 owner in VA who had a lot more mods and was getting those times, and he was on his 5th or 6th FD, with 2 or 3 other being parted out in his yard and no telling how many others in the past, so he definately was used to the car.

What times was he getting?
I know there is a FD with the stock turbos that runs 11s but I think he has midpipe and bigger fuel pump and running around 15-16psi

at 15psi, i would probably be shooting for a mid 12. thats my guess. i guess we'll find out! hahah

He claimed an 11.8

Here's a video from me riding along with him - www.another car forum.com/jastuff/fd3.WMV

Keep im mind, stuff looks a lot slower on video.

I'm thinking low 13's. But its better to underestimate then to overestimate.



HOOOHA! :lol: PARTY KIDZ!

What mods was he running? One guy on rx7club.com was running on slicks and ran an 11.2. He had everthing im going to get plus a midpipe, upgraded fuel pump, and a diff intercooler.

I dunno, he ran through the list, but I don't remember.
