LS1 Z28 vs turbo AWD Talon
Tonight I raced a buddy of mine who has an AWD Talon. Just last night he ran 12.68 @ 110mph on a 1.8 60ft. We ran from 30mph and I got a quick jump on him off the start, but we both held dead even through 3rd. Once I hit 4th it was all over I started walking him, but there was traffic so I had to let off.
I noticed how slow I shifted in my other video, but that was stock shifter. Pro 5.0 made a night and day difference now in this one lol.

Well done, you had smooth quick shifts near as I could tell. You probably dropped your ET with that shifter then.
The 14B is a big limiter up top, but the mid range matters more in 2nd and 3rd, and he would have plenty, and you were about as fast there. Sweet.
Now start modding

I don't know all the details but I know its a built 2.4L and previously did 603whp with the old turbo setup. He usually shifts around 8500 with the big turbo, but the stock 14b just runs out of air so he was shifting at around 6000.
2.4s are badass, yeah that 14B is huffing fast.......

It can flow about 400WHP worth of air in a really done 2.0. I think that with a 100% OEM head I can hit like 350ish with an extrude honed intake mani. I ported the crap out if it, the ex mani, and the 02 housing. And it will be a awesome powerband from about 3500 to low 6 ish. Fun. I can always go for something larger later, the E3 was only 485 shipped. I love price wars LOL.
