Two questions, How much did that set you back, and are you going to start running strait Alky?
awdnot2
Apr 26 2006, 01:10 PM
We have connections. The price is the same as most of the Garrett sponsored race teams. The GT42R goes for about $1950-2300 depending where you go. I won't say what we paid, but definitely less than a FP3065 ball bearing turbo.
Straight alcohol would be nice, but we don't have the funds and the current motor wasn't built with that in mind.

the turbo is a gt42r, custom manifold built by shearer, built 2.4L motor
Is this true? Are you stroked?
Have fun with that...
How many extra trannies and rear ends do you have on hand?
So jealous

Apr 29 2006, 08:27 AM
No we are not stroked. The motor in the picture is not ours. With the rpm's we turn a stroker would be a bad idea.
Still it should be fun.

Update:
We took the runner up spot again at the Nopi event in New Hampshire.
We only made two full passes on the new setup. The first was a 9.9@154 and the second was a 9.411@155.95. Before the finals we found a huge leak fixed it and then over powered the clutch when we hit second gear.
Note the lead we had after I beat him at the treeResultsNopi NH event coverage (mostly women and drifting coverage)

Looks like either way that civic was going to eat you alive. 8.3 at 175
That's freakin bookin. I hope you see that kind of speed some day.

Aug 15 2006, 09:16 AM
Well yes, but a tenth on the tree and a tenth on the sixty foot we only needed an 8.5x. Our goal is 8.69@160+ we don't need that crazy MPH.
