well after finally fixing my little boost leak problem i went back to the track tonight. i previously ran a 13.9 and i knew the car was feeling stronger since i fixed it. here is my time
91 240sx w/ red top SR20, BPU 14psi
60'----- 2.155
1/8----- 8.755 @ 83.05
1/4------ 13.4 @ 103.99
this 13.4 was backed up by many 13.5 runs too. now if i could only hit a 2.0 60'. oh well i'm no drag racer anyway. so what do you guys think about my times?

Congrats. That is a pretty healthy time for a non-stripped 240sx @ 14psi.
Are you running an open diff? If so, you will probably drop to a really low 13 with an lsd...
My best run was a
[email protected] w/ 2.0 60'. My 1/8 miles speed was 83.4 so I think you are probably losing atleast a couple of tenths in the launch.

Good stuff I'd love to be running mid 13s with just bolt ons.. You always see stupid people talking about running mid 13s straight from an s13 swap.. And I figured it was too good to be true.. There's a kid with AN INTEGRA telling me I'll be able to run mid 13s with an s13 swap no more work done..

jefs0ng - I have heard the same thing. I would agree if you believe replacing the stock exhaust system isn't a bolt on. It is probably the best $/hp upgrade you can do to an SR engine. Otherwise, from my experience you're looking at mid-low 14's with stock boost, smic, and stock exhaust.

yes i do have LSD b/c my car is a HICAS model. yeah i am losing some time on the launch definitely. trying hard to get the 2.0 60' but oh well i didn't get it. it was just fun to pull up next to mustangs and camaros at the track in this POS and show them my taillights.

How are you launching the car? Do you run decent street tires?

i'm running es100's launching at 4000rpm slipping the clutch.
That's pretty good!!!
I did
[email protected] with many modifications, S15 Turbo and 15-16 psi boost.
Congrats on your run!

13.4 @ 103.99
vs.
[email protected]
Halo, what was your 60'? Seems like you should be a lot quicker than 13.34
What size wheels/tires were you running rookie?
I did a 2.17 IIRC. I was also running 235/40R17 bald Potenzas in the rear on 17x8 Volk rims.
