My recipe for a 12.7 @ 110 quarter (should've been a lower time, I can't drive for shiit - the trap speed is decent however, and points towards middle 12's):

Link ECU
VF23 @ 1.4 bar
HKS FMIC
iON 4-1 header
Scoobysport DP
Blitz Nürspec

Stronger clutch and dogbox, nitrous, stripped out, closed deck block with forged internals running 30+ PSI, bigger turbo, fuel pump, injectors, intercooler, exhaust, intake, ECU, high octane fuel, drag suspension and tyres.

That lot would cost you a packet and probably lose you about 4 seconds.

How far do you want to go ?

as far as you john!

You'll have to tell us the story of how you're not getting a front mount or new turbo, or bigger injectors, or even bigger injectors still, or going internal.

Just imagine what you could do if you did do all those things

Just found this.


http://www.fantasycars.com/derek/quartmile.html


If I put in 2778lb for my Type R (Book Figures) and 310bhp I get

12.8secs, which I reckon is about right.

I have only managed a 13.02 sec at the pod but know it could go quicker.

How does this tool compare for others???

except the weight of your car is really another 100kg or so, unless you have a Knight Industries KITT to drive it for you on the strip.
