Any more ideas? I would really like to hear from some guys that have been this fast or have built this fast. When u say pro mod 94-98 are you saying percision stuff? what size inlet/outlets and stuff.....I am new to this TURBO stuff,. so if anyone can give me a DETAILED part list for turbo set-up and fuel system i would greatly appreicate it.

Im just looking for someone with experience and knowledge that has a (STREETABLE 5.40 to 5.30 1/8th Mile Package)

If youve done all you say you have then you should have no problem coming up with a combo yourself... Might want to try the 9sec club... thats what youll need to get the time you want.

the 9 second club cant really help me out.....to go low 5's inthe 1/8th mile, a car must be at least going 8.50s or better in the 1/4 mile.
My Z06 will run 5.90s and low 9s inthe 1/4.

I wanna keep the car as stock looking as possible on the inside with the exception of roll bar. I have one already in mind that will scale out around 3000lbs
It will NOT BE A CLASS CAR !!

Man look here's the hot set-up.
Guy's are running 5.40's in RS275 with CAST wheel 76's you don't need a 94 to do all that.
Get a formula firebird(lightweight to start or a stripper z) put a forged LS2 or LQ4 in there(364 c.i.) Maybe bore it out to 370, set of LSA heads or even ported and polished 317's and a GT-88 or GT-91 will do it, but so will a 94mm like Nitroused said.
Take a look at MM's combo it runs 5.50's in the 1/8 and 8.59 in the 1/4 with a 364 c.i. ERL superdeck 1, all pro 245 cc cathedral port 6 bolt heads, 4l80e, and a T4 GT91. 3700# car to boot, so with 300 less pounds I dont' see 5.30's being hard to reach.

Really depends on your Budget.
If you want it to be streetable, Run mid 5's in the 1/8th and be a single turbo combo, you have plenty of options.
I would do a simple setup. Light weight car, Stout engine, Properly matched turbo, and let it eat.
Engine:
370-390ci engine
TFS 225cc or 235cc heads
Vic Jr Intake and Elbow
90mm TB
Turbo Setup:
Precision ProMod 88
Precison 66mm WG
Headers or Manifold Hot side
Nice A2A FMIC setup
Fuel:
Holley Dominator EFI Fuel Pump
-10 feed
-8 return
Billet rails
Adjustable Fuel PSI regulator
FIC 160lb High Impedence injectors
ECM:
Stock is fine
Trans:
TH400 with a T-Brake
Suitable Stall
Car:
98-02 4th Gen F-body
Solid suspension
9" or 12 Bolt rear
Good suspension
Weight Reduction
All in all a pretty simple combo. A light weight car with a good suspension. A solid engine. Nothing exotic or uber expensive. A solid turbo setup. A solid Fuel system. At the end of the day an easy 5 second 8th mile car that is streetable. I have done similar combos for several customers with great results.

Josh has it all ironed out for you there more than I did.
This is what needs to be done. If I could change one thing on Josh's list it'd be the tranny as I am partial to overdrives and especially partial to my 80e. Thing is a beast, I don't think it can be hurt when you start throwing billet internals in them. MM ran for a full season or two(maybe) took his 80e out, had it sent to the guy that built mine and his tranny, found out it was in tip top shape still and had it sent back. That's a full hard season of racing, driving thousands of road miles, and running 8.50's out the back door. Of course a PG or TH400 can do this also, just not with the OD cruising at 75mph on the interstate at 2500-2800rpm.
