2004 SRT-4 stage 1 vs. Thumper MSP

judging by your numbers in your sig... there is only a 4 to 14 whp increase with only 1.5 to .5 psi diffrence??
 
the numbers in my sig are only a rough rough estimate... go by the race, that seems to be a bit more accurate...

I still say with those whp numbers and that set up you should run better then 13.5s making 266 whp. I run the same times with 203 whp. I really dont think its that impressive of a car it should be puting down on 11psi with that set up over 330 whp. Im not giving you a rash of s*** just trying to figure out why so much power and not good times in 1/4.
 
2.2 60 ft.

end of story. also, i am still ont the stock msp ecu, which is hardly what anyone would considered tuned.

look at pdhaudio's car. with a smaller turbo it made 260 whp at 13 psi.

also, you have to remember this turbo is BIG. at 11 psi, it is like spinning a pin wheel. it needs 20 psi or more to be in its prime efficiency range.
 
2.2 60 foot times are not good for that power i cut 2.2 2.1s all day on nitto gen tires .
17s that is. Not being a dick to you but its not very impressive thats all

Can't compare 60 foot times for two completely different power levels.....
 
why is that if the car has more power then it will or should be around 1.7s- 2.0s Im just saying either he cant drive or the numbers are wrong that all im saying. Hey it looks fast in the video and his set up is awesome but its not too impressive for it to run 13.5s .

Man, MPH = car... ET = driver. He is not bullshitting in any way, 109MPH, his car is fast... period.
 
Oh and one more thing... I would LOVE to see you pull a 1.7 without slicks... I don't care how much power you have, it's a FWD car man, more power doesn't mean rediculous improvement in 60ft time.

Man you are a idiot. Ask anyone trying to launch one of these god for saken "autocross" tuned suspensions. All they want to do is spin. I have been playing with alignments, suspension bushings, torque straps, etc. and the best I have been able to do is a 2.0 60' with 26/9/15 slicks. Focus has the best with a 1.97 or 1.94. Anybody that says they pull 2.1's with the stock potenzas are exactly that, stock. With no power you can launch harder without fear of spinning. Ask Focus, Me, Turfburn, Pdhaudio, Azian6er, 505zoom (any other "big" players I can't think of right now? sorry.lol) to race from a 30mph to 65mph race with potenzas, guess what? We will spin, and spin, and spin. s*** I just started running 17psi w/ a gauge pegging spike and I can break the tires loose third gear at around 5500 if I'm not careful w/9degrees of timing backed out.

109mph tells the story, he was making power, good power.
 
going to the track tomorrow. i will keep you all posted..

and yeah, 60 ft times dont fit a linear regression with hp numbers lol... the more power, the harder to launch..

EXACTLY!!!! Plus it's FWD lol. The best 60ft I had in my boosted MP3 was a 2.3- and it had a differential. Now I'm driving AWD and 1.6's and 1.7's are more easily attainable. With my one outing at the track I launched BAAD and still pulled off a 1.90 60ft.
 
Blk zoom I really dont appreciate calling me an IDIOT. What iam saying is his car is fast no doubt about it, but these numbers are not impressive for his power thats all im saying. I run the same times with my mods listed below with NITTO GEN TIRES 17S!!!!!!! And I can drive have been racing since i was 16 I mean real race cars not some dam msp that you think is fast. granted i have one too but its not really impressive of times for what he has done to the car. I beat Identical cars at the track with alot more power then he has. So If you cannot understand what i am saying the ngo back to my other post and read I said no disrespect to him or his car its just not that impressive with the power he has. Also you said you runs slicks and your cutting 2.2 60 foot times. That tell me your a terrrible driver. So suck on these nuts buddy!!! And im out of this post its people like you who give this fourm a bad rep.
