So I kind do not want to upgrade my fuel system and play with the tuning and all that. So I came up with a different plan, here how it goes.

Manual Boost Controller. Hoping for 15-16psi

Upper intercooler pipes and a B.O.V of a 1g.

190lph fuel pump.

Boost gauge.

High stall TQ converter and maybe a shift kit.

Knock sensor light.



Now what changed from the last plan is that I'm keeping the stock turbo so I can keep my stock fuel system.

Would these mods be enough to get me into the 13s?


thanks in advance.

It is possible.

You could get a 13, but that would really be streching it.
The factory t25 can only go so far. I would say your vehicle (assuming its awd) would be somewhere in the 14-15 second range.
Jana, what did your car run?

because if that wont be enough, I could run 75 wet shots and that would be enough. :D

Instead of nitrous, why don't you upgrade your turbo system and fuel system, have it tuned professionally, and not deal with it.

I agree. Nitrous is a push the button sometimes kinda thing. Upgrading your turbo & fuel system is pretty easy & relatively inexpensive, and every time you push down that-one-pedal-on-the-right you get to use it!

17s all day long with a dropped exhaust ;)


BTW, WTF dictates a need for another thread on this?

upgrading the turbo and the fuel system is at least $2K if it is done right, and I still have to worry a bout my tranny.
nitrous will only cost a bout $600 and if the motor is strong enough to handel the bigger turbo then it will handel the nitrous """I think""" :confused:

Beside all this, I was surprised that no one said any thing a bout upgrading the TQ converter which is a big push in the 1/4 mile. ;)

Yes you'll need a torque converter.
A switch over to a synthetic fluid is recommended, a larger trans cooler, a endclutch kit, a shift kit, heck a built tranny if yours is going out is all "recommended".
