Post your mods and 1/4 mile times.

I never tried at 4-5 psi. My turbo has an internal wastegate and the spring is for a minimum 8 psi. Right now I don't have a boost controller. To be able to try at 4-5 psi, I need to change the spring for a lower psi base and add a boost controller. I'm realy satisfied with the 8 psi power. I don't think I'll go under or over 8 psi for now.

My turbo installation was a complete custom job. So it was made and installed as the work progressed. It took them 6 weeks to developped the kit. I removed all the kit (almost) to paint it and make some minor modification after I got my car back. It took around 4 hour to install it.

What do you mean by stage 1 or 2?
 
The turbo kit you got, is it stage 1 or stage 2 turbo, don't know if that setup was from another stock car or not but my bro's Si has a revhard stage2 Turbo setup. If that came from another car setup then never mind:rolleyes: . Anyways i like the turbo setup and the pics. Outta SpoolinMP3, chdesign, wshade6, and you who is the fastest right now running turbo.


Stou: Blue mica Turbo
spoolinMP3: vivid yellow Turbo
Chdesign: silver Protege ES Turbo
Wshade6: Red PR5 Turbo
???????????????????????????????????hehe:D :D
 
That kit didn't come from another car. It's all custom made. Piping intercooler, exhaust is made specially for my car. The only thing that was not custom made is the turbo itself. It's a brand new Mitsubishi TD05H 16g. I think this kind of turbo is used on Eclipse and Talon.

About who is the fastest MP3 righ now, I think Spoolin is the only one who goes at 12 psi.... so I think that make him the fastest. But if I remember well, it was only for a test and now he's back to 7 or 8 psi. Chdesign doesn't run turbo anymore and Wshade is runing at 8 psi I think. So we are probably at the same level of performance.

15.1 Ford Focus Almost all boltons minus headwork and crappy tires.

Hmmmmm....I guess it's a free country....lol.
J/k, welcome to the world of mazda. be aware there is also a focus forum hosted by the same folks.


Myself:
17.1 my first time ever with p5 at track (no-drop start)
by the last run, i was getting greedy,
16.56 (or .46, i cant remember) STOCK, dumping the clutch at 6000rpm (wheel hop is a b****) and shifting hard.
Dont worry, I'm planning on buying a new clutch/flywheel, so im having fun w/ stock.

havent tried since mods.

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! That's what I like to hear!!!(drinks)
 
Heh... ET: 10.760, MPH: 126.00, 60ft: 1.520.

If you didn't already guess, that surely isn't my P5. With enough money it could happen, but I doubt I will ever make near that much. If I wasn't so worried about the P5's tranny destroying itself, I would take it to the track. Oh well, figured I'd chime in. :)

I wish... that is my new car... I have yet to break into the 12's in the truck. I am still pushing mid/low 13's with a 150 wet shot of N20. The new car is a 1987 Buick Regal T-type. :) So much is upgraded from stock, I wouldn't know where to start. I made that run at about ~23 PSI, Headers uncapped, and 110 Octane gas... I've yet to mount some slicks on it. I think high 9's are possible if I boost ~30PSI, and run slicks. That was my first time at the track with the T-Type, and all I can say is wow. I can't run again there until I get a roll cage... anything under 12 secs requires it. :)
 
ran a 16.8 at sac raceway... with only intake, exhuast.... still had my 18s and my bandpass speaker box.... really surprised i hit 16.8 ... next time will ruin with stocks and no box
 
1/4 mile times

This was my second ever trip to the drag strip. I took out the front seat, back seat, spare tire, and sub. My only performance mods are an Injen CAI and the Bosal Federal Exhaust. My best run was a 16.003 but I didn't nail the launch. Click on the link below to view two of my time slips.

If that didn't work try this: http://photos.yahoo.com/jonlisle20

I'm going back to the track on Wednesday and I have no doubt I will break into the 15s (barely!). I can't wait for the HP Racing header! Talk to you guys soon. :cool:
 
:) First time at strip with my P5, Carolina Raceway Park

ET : 16.78
MPH : 81.39
60ft :2.46

First Time at Track

Best of two runs: 16.6 @ 82.81mph.
Its kind of what I expected on my first time. I still had the sub and spare/jack stuff in the back. Hope to get it down to the lower 16's maybe high 15's after I get a header.
I was really happy with my reaction time: .575
 
I just purchased the FM turbo kit, I should be getting it sometime next week, along with my current mods I'm hoping to break 14's, thats after I break in the turbo in of coarse...

Current mods;
MHP carbon fiber CAI
AEM water by pass valve
Magnaflow cat-back exhaust
Mazdaspeed Intake camshaft
J-Spec Exhaust camshaft
Unorthodox pulley (comming off when turbo goes on, any buyers?
Kart-boy short shifter
Kart-boy shifter bushings
Ground-Control coil overs
17" wheels wrapped in Bridgstone Potenza S-03 pole position's
Competition brake pads

I'm also ordering a ACT clutch and Lightend flywheel to arrive at the same time as the turbo. This should be very interesting, I guess next week you can add me to the list of Forced inducted Protege's, which by the way, how many of you are here in California, any in the bay area? Look out for me, My new Cali plates read "TurboP5" I'll have pictures of the turbo and all as soon as it's all done, for now I'll leave a N/A pic!:)
