How can I run10's
 
OK guys basically I want a street driven 10 sec car. I have everything in my sig, not instaled yet, plus about $6,000 more. I have stock pistons, crank, and connecting rods, and everything else internal other than the cam. What do i need to do. The only suspension mods I have would be the drag lauch springs and the BMR toquq arm. I amslo have a S3 ported throttle body.

This is a chance to help a youg guy out. I really need help, thanks in advance.

Depending on your raceweight you should be pretty close already, with a good tune of course. I would recommend at least some sfc's before you twist your car though. But anyway, slap a small shot of nitrous on there and be done with it!

No NOS
 
Really want to go N/A w/ maybe Forced Induction:) What suspenson parts do I need? Thanks for the replys.

my new setup
 
OK, I know I will get 10's now. I just bought a Stage 2 CAS Twin Turbo setup, and I am getting a custom cam from Futral, and getting the race converter from Fuddle. I am als looking at selling whole engine and buying a forged shortblock. Anyways I should defintely be n the 10's now:)

As far as suspension goes, I just got some SFC's and STB, and already got some BMR LCA's and Eiach Drag Launch kit. For a daily driver, what shocks do I need? I also bought a VFN 4' glass hod to save a little weight.

I can't stop stop spending money on my car, someone HELP, I am only 19!

You must not be to bad off since your 19 and have a twin turbo car. Im 19 and I have a 17 second car. Must be nice to be rich.

ATCFLYBOY02 Apr 21, 2005 02:34 PM

Man you dont have to be rich to have a fast car. you just have to know the right folks. and kiss their azz to get what you want for your car.

At sea level, you need around 430-440 rwhp to run 10s in a 4th gen. You have many options, the cheapest of which would be put a NX 150 wet shot ($1000), headers ($400) and gears ($500) on it.

U ever heard of poor man's racing? Very possible to have a fast car. It's all about who you know.

ATCFLYBOY02 Apr 25, 2005 09:51 AM

I used to have a 1988 toyota p/u that would kick the shit out of most anything on the street. I about $2000 in the whole truck. 400 SBC w/ a turbo 350 tranny. ran hot and cracked the block. oh well SH1T happens

00RedWs6 Apr 25, 2005 12:14 PM
