Re: Nissan Skyline GTR (2008) probably my friends car, he's from Austin I believe. Jody

Re: 12 second duramax turbo desiel Re: 12 second duramax turbo desiel I wouldn't call the trans bad because it won't handle 50-70% more power and 75% more torque than it was designed for without needing some better parts. That's a lot to ask for out of any trans. They just don't engineer that...

Re: 12 second duramax turbo desiel Re: 12 second duramax turbo desiel No, using EFI Live to tune, no propane. It's not instant, at least in my case. Took a lot of tuning and datalogging, finding small increases until they all added up to where I am. Jody

Re: 12 second duramax turbo desiel Re: 12 second duramax turbo desiel my daily driver is an 07 crew cab 4wd Duramax, and it ran 12.70's first trip to the track. That's with my tuning and a different exhaust, no motor or turbo mods. For a 7000 pound truck they can be impressive for sure. I...

Re: Coulda been a kill? Don't the TBSS' run low 14's stock? Jody

Re: Had some fun with an LS2 GTO there are now several turbo kits for the GTO's. I had one on mine before I sold it, they run very well, especially from a roll. No competition for most you guys from a standing start though! Jody

Re: Twin Turbo Vette There are tons of them in the low to mid 11's completely stock, tires and all. My friend drove his straight from the dealer to the track, with 18 miles on it and ran 11.38. Jody

Thanks! It's getting there, was shooting for Power Tour but the painter screwed up so I'm stripping it and painting it myself. Jody

SL65 is an 11 second car period. And they actually leave pretty hard, though not as good as a SY/TY. Suffice it to say you'll have you're hands full! And if he's modded the computer they can get 740 HP and about 900 ft. lbs; a friend has one and that's his next mod. Jody

Wasn't insinuating that you were stupid! :D Just didn't know if you were aware of how the timers work, at least here in the U.S. Jody

Cool truck you have! Reaction times do not get included in your e.t. though; you can sit there for five seconds, the timers don't start until you break the beam by leaving.

That 1/8th mile equates to a 13.30 or so, but he said he couldn't leave with boost. Jody

Because he only ran 3/4 throttle from the 60' mark to the end of the 1/4 mile. My guess is that he has a solid mid-11 second truck to run that well bogging on the launch, only leaving @ 4 psi, and only using 3/4 throttle. Jody

So you caught and passed a Viper from a roll with him passing you under wot and you only using 1/2-3/4 throttle? Stopped him from pulling and passed him by? Jody

A 470 rwhp Lightning will run well into the 11's. Not calling BS and I understand the launch advantage, but he may have "over-estimated" his rwhp. Jody
