Ok guys I may have took on more than I can handle but here it goes... K20 swapped hatch boosted making almost 400 horses, that's all I know about it. Besides it could go 13.3 on radials... So this is what my build has come to tell me what yall think.... New intercooler piping hotside, k&n intake, downpipe, have a muffler delete so leaving catback. Also ttr stage 2 trans mounts and engine mounts, and traction bars. Waiting on s/c brakes to swap to be able to run 16s along with 26x9. Going to be dyno tuned by trifecta. Possibly a dual tune with hp tuners. Will be to 22 psi. Any opinions or help needed thanks

 

only way you'll win is
1. the kid can't drive
2. the turbo is a pos that doesn't spool till 7k

 

haha yup exactly and he might be lying about the power too

 

if its not at a track try a slow roll. it will take them longer to get into the revs and even one they get there, high horsepower hondas spin FOREVER before they get traction. you mentioned hes on DRs so this scenario may be irrelevant. good luck with that. hopefully they lift the head of you win by default. lol

 

So I guess no one on this forum runs low 13s

 

haha dont think so at least on stock turbo

 

Ok well alot of people have said it's possible with a good driver and tune. With everything I'm doing. So when I get finished I'll go to the track and post times. Don't see how 100 extra horses cam pick up a second at the track.

 

100% stock turbo people are in the high-mid 13s, bolted and tuned a good driver can get into the 12s.

But yeah man, tough race for you. Those cars are light, the k20s rev high and flow up top. But just do your best if you have to do this race.

 

I bet his traps didn't match a low 13 second pass...

He won't have a problem with you, there is a NA one where I live that traps 87mph in the 1/8..

 

It's not that, it's the fact that the car is probably capable of running low to mid 11's. Now whether or not it will or if it's a rigged setup or kid can't drive like i said will be the deciding variable.

 

cmiller on stock turbo, bolted, tuned, etc with street tires on:

YouTube - 2009 Cobalt SS/TC 12.9 pass

YouTube - 2009 Cobalt SS/TC 12.74

Very possible to run in the 12s on the k04. Though, cmiller is a good driver. These were in his earlier days still.

I will agree. a k20 swapped hatch is a 12 second car just with the swap alone, with a turbo, hmmm. Just pray the kid can't hook and/or can't drive.

 

And btw the 13.3 is on drag radials. His tuner told him sine he is scared to beat hard on his car he could possibly possibly get low 12s on slicks

 

YouTube - turbo k20 civic

just sayin

 

Oh well I'll just do all I can do to my Balt and see. He only got over 10,000 I'm this car so if I remotely keep up I'll be happy

 

throw some nitrous in your car

 

im wanting to do this on stock engine, turbo, and with only boltons. i dont like nitrous

 

haha good luck the k20 is veryyy boost friendly and what car is this swap in? and say its a eg or ek hatch making 400 ish he is running faster than a 13 a n/a k20 hatch runs faster than a 13

 

Well tomorrow was supposed to be the big day but income tax screwed me and it isnt coming in till the 18th so trifecta tune will be fun to try out at the track

 

ricer excuses

 

We always have ifo in baton rouge though. He was suppposedly not going adn last night decided oh i have to find slicks..thats why i wasnt in a hury to get parts. But now he seen they really didnt come in hes going now.. And 05 slowline i will run him as soon as money and the rest of my parts come in and post you a video. This will happen before i go back to work on the 24th

 

lol i'm just fkin with you man

 

he cant drive lol... But i just got my trifecta tuning cable and waiting on tune so time to have fun

 

well guys i was right. 13.3 at 113.. i ran a 14.4 at 103.. damn i amaze myself. He destroyed his clutch

 

you're amazed running a mid 14 in an ss/tc lol?

 

no one down here runs any faster et just faster trap speeds. i said i amaze myself because i run a 14.38 or 14.41
