Default Project 12's for $1000 went 12.01 @ 115mph Density Altitude: DA = 8,214 feet

Hey guys...


Did a project that was in the works and talked about for almost 10 months here in CO. I don't post on Tech that often, just wanted to get your thoughts.

Project as follows = Find a Stock / Near Stock F-body / A4 and get it into the 12's here in Denver, CO for under $1,000 dollars.

Rules are = minimal to no weight reduction, Any mods you want as long as it's under $1,000. Get a 12.5 or better pass.

Car was a 2000 Camaro z-28 A4 115k miles



Main mods were N20, Gears, tune + alot of other little mods.

There are a few threads about the project if you guys wanted to read it. Some extensive reading

Happy to say the Car went 12.01 at 116mph 1.84 60'
The DA at the time was 8,214 feet
It's an 11 second car, too bad I weigh 280lbs. lol..

Should be noted, stock A4 Fbody's run low to mid 14's here in Denver.

Just FYI for you Sea level guys, I did the correction factor off of Drag Time's.com cause I was curious myself.



Here's the correction, which I take with a grain of salt.

Density Altitude: 8,214 feet above sea level
1/4 mile ET: 12.01 seconds
1/4 mile trap speed: 115.6 MPH

Stock and Mildly Modified Naturally Aspirated Engines
10.764 @ 127.776 MPH

Extensively Modified Naturally Aspirated Engines
11.019 @ 124.655 MPH

Extensively Modified Supercharged and Turbocharged Engines
11.465 @ 120.231 MPH

Yea that car would run some 11.0's to 10.90's @ sea level. I'm from colorado and I know how all that bandimere **** goes. my 99 camaro basically stock motor/suspension with a 60mm turbo made 500 to the tire and up there it went 12.50's and down in houston it went 11.20's. plus up there it wouldn't spin the tires much without actually trying, down at sea level anything below 60mph, once the boost came in, it would blow the tires out and there were a few times where I blew them out from like a 75 roll. cars are totally different monsters when you take them from 6000 ft elevation to sea level. Depending on the density altitude, on average, there's about a 2psi atmospheric pressure difference between the 2 so that alone is huge. Nicely done man.
