0-60 Times

[barry240]

this is with a brake boost .my setup is 92 b230+t lh2.4 freds icu/ecu chips m cam 42/48 t3 at 15psi .my 0_ 60 times are. first run 4 seconds. second run 5 seconds .third run 4 seconds .and thats spinning the tires a little on take off .are these time any good ?. thanks

[MrBill]

barry you fail.

Are you measuring with a grandfather clock or something? You cant get any better than the ONES place? I mean no decimal at all?

Your car does not achieve a 4 second 0-60 I promise you that.
Maybe high-5s... maybe..

Edit: PM mrdoug, he has a turbo he will sell you for very cheap that should make some KILLER power, it needs a new wheel though, unless you'd just want to run it as is (a little chip in one place from some foreign matter or something)

its a t04e 50 a/r .40 trim.

[barry240]

im mesuring it with a stop watch your prob right but its no more than five seconds.

[barry240]

how much is very cheap

[MrBill]

how much is very cheap

shoot him an offer, prolly like $50+ shipping. Its a beast....

id recommend a new wheel though (quoted at $60ish).

[barry240]

how much power do u think i can make with that turbo

[MrBill]

more than your motor can handle
or at least more than your head can flow

[barry240]

well i dont want to get some thing thats going to blow it up .

[MrBill]

well i dont want to get some thing thats going to blow it up .

keep the boost low enough and you'll be fine.
We went tuning today in 500dollar744ti's car, and he put in an even manlier turbo than the one listed above, and it didnt blow up.

I have an even-manlier turbo and i hope it wont blow up

[barry240]

could a turbo like that get me in the 250 wrhp .range at 15 psi ?

[MrBill]

it might, i'd get a new intercooler first though

edit: yeah I think it should

[barry240]

will it be a drop in replacment for my t3 .meaning will it fit

[adrianpike]

60 km/h?

[barry240]

no mph

[Raz]

you realize that if your tire(s) are spinning it'll read 60mph, but in actuality you're going closer to something lower?

try with a GPS ... or a G-meter, or a drag strip. 4 seconds! lol.

[OldSchoolEuro]

4 Seconds 0-60 is damn near supercar times....as said above I'd get a real 0-60 time reader...

[Jason b]

Although it is a very crude method not taking into account gear ratios and such you are looking at about 277bhp/ton to acheive 4s

[eurautodave]

just for reference...my 940 does 5.2 repeatably on a g-timer. it will be interesting to compare when i get the t56 and 4.10 in it next month...

[stylngle2003]

get a friend to time you

[740Weapon]

video tape the speedo with a digital camera.

give an audio signal when you start launch and then watch the video to figure out the time to 60.

quit your job right now...you need to open a tuner shop and get rich !!!!!

My subaru pulled a 0-60 time of 4.42. Its almost a super car time:-D


I wanna see a vid of this 0-60.

[YLD244]

i would say you setup would give you more in the mid to high 6s range.
Definately not 4s. youd need to have a crazy launch, so unless your running slicks and some form of real 2WD, theres no way in hell you are doing 4s 0-60mph.

[Booster]

im going to have to agree with yld244

your nowhere near a 4 second 0-60.

im going to go out on a limb & say that possibly even linuxman isnt that fast. dam close but not that fast

Heffner ford gt1000tt 1098 HP 0-60 3.7

car and driver feb 08 issue.
times were from a 0-200-0 mph test
good luck :nono:

[barry240]

ok i redid my 0-60 times with a good stopwatch its 0-60 in 5.6 seconds .the other stopwatch i was using had a second delay for some stupid reason.

[Nick]

You're using the instrument cluster to tell you when you reach 60 mph?

[DurableSwedish]

0-200-0 in 3.7s? geeze that'll make your brain pop out and your face come off...

[barry240]

yes

[242turbo9]

wow, i want the 3 minutes i spent reading this thread back

[Nick]

Well, Volvo speedo's are known for their accuracy.

:rofl:

Seriously man, if you want some accurate #'s you need an g-meter or something similar. This stopwatch/speedo **** has all kinds of inconsistencies due to human error.

[plantto]

With my setup in my sig i did the stopwatch method from the moment i touched the pedal to the moment it hit 60mph and i repeatedly got 6.457 to 6.665 and no spinning for me and no brake boost.

[244ti]

0-200-0 in 3.7s? geeze that'll make your brain pop out and your face come off...

0-200-0 took a wopping 26.5 seconds in the GT
0-60 3.7
1/4 mile 10.6 @ 152
0-200 18.9
200-0 braking 7.4
212,000$

take it to the track, kid. (for proper timing equipment...).
