In my recent 914 venture at Sacramento raceway, I managed a 14.2 @91 mph. This was achieved even through a boost tube popped off before the finish line and my tune was all screwed up. The tube popping off instantly killed the car (apparently Subaru ecu’s dont like losing their maf readings) it was alot of fun putting that back on in the dark without tools to get to the pits. I’m shooting for 13s next go! So what r some of your best 1/4 mile times?

Im looking to go low 11's @ 130+.
Im more interested in a high trap speed than a low ET. My backyard math tells me I should be able to do that.. Putting power down and not breaking the trani is going to be the big issue. That and bogging with a long first. First and sencond gear wont be much to write home about, but I should be able to put all the power down in 3rd on the strip. Maybe someday I'll actually get to the track.. |

I believe that would be difficult to achieve without a significant investment in robust driveline components. For instance, Tilton engineers use a +40% clutch/pp formula for reliability and performance. My car would require a pack capable of 800 ft lbs; then there is the transaxle, cv's, axles, etc. Interested in knowing what you do! Remember, talking about something in advance of an achievement is hollow-bragging; afterwards = reporting of facts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
