I know this is off topic but does anyone know what Suneil's Car runs in the 1/4. And one last question what is the fastest 1/4 you have heard from a svt contour N/A or turbo

so Demonsvt your N/A was 13.47 and the best turbo time you know of is 13.2. That doesn't seem right. If thats the case What do you think your car would run with a turbo.

13.4 is a great time for a N/A contour. I would like to see that without nos though. You would have to have some good horsepower to the ground to get that time with the weight of that car. I manage low 13's in a 2300 lb car, with 265+ hp at the wheels, and posi trac. There was a guy in the probe club I was in who pulled off a 13.1. I think he had a built J-spec motor with a 75 shot of nos though. It was nice to see a probe beat a mustang 5.0, z28 and a few other older muscle cars.

So, if Greg ran a 13.4 N/A.....how could his car have the giggle gas? Nitrous = Forced Induction or Nitrous doesn't = N/A either way... Originally posted by dutchie:

There are only so many factors that effect track times, power, weight, gearing, traction, and driver experience. Power and weight are two of the big ones.
what I am saying is that those times would be hard to pull without nitrous. I, and anyone else who knows basic math, can tell you though, if a turbod CSVT runs a 13.2, a NA contour would need pretty close to the hp of the turbod car to make a time of 13.4. Building a 2.5 l duratec to those hp specs without turbo/super/nos would be a stretch.
That is just me making a statement based on experience and observation.
If he did pull those times, more power too him.

I understand what you are saying, I was just clarifying that N/A isn't with nitrous. I am skeptical about Greg's times as well as I noted when he first posted them. Not because I do not think they are possible, but the time/mph just don't corralate for our platform. I know he has the time slip to prove it, but to me...its just weird....when the track opens up in KC I hope he pulls multipe 13.4Xs... Originally posted by dutchie:

I agree, N/A would not be with nitrous.
I agree, that's great if he is getting those times...but there are stats all over the place for other cars that make it hard to believe. Then again, I didn't believe the guy who pulled a 13.1 in the probe club until I saw his video.
my brother's (now dead) 2000 camaro ss made 330 hp @ around 5,800. Car weighed 3,400 lbs. 3.42:1 gears lim slip. 0-60 4.9-5.1, good quarter was 13.25 @107
An early 2000s 333hp M3 will run low 13 consistently, some high 12s with a driver.
A few guys in the zissan/datsun club run low 13s and high 12...but that is Twin turbo with other work.

All the turbo cars are slipping through 1st and 2nd gear.
I ran a 13.8@109 on stock width 215/45-17 street tires that were old before I left for Iraq.
I have now installed 235/45-17s and I expect to improve that time by dropping the boost. I should trap lower but my traction will be improved and I can probably pull better than a 13.8xx.
Demon stated that he used drag radials. I have no idea what his motor puts down but I would expect that without any power adder he is at or abou 225-230 wHP with his fully programmable TWEECER tuning capability. The weight of his car should be around 3000 pounds.
By comparison, I ran 14.8x@96 with 206 wHP and piss poor racing skills with my 3L conversion and stock 215/50 tires.
My car weight was estimated at 3200 pounds because of the stereo system and spare tire, laptop in the car.
Demon managed a 14.8x with his 2.5L and stock tires, about 190 wHP I imagine. His car should have been about 3050 then.
I cannot expect that he could have significantly more than 230 wHP, but I know he has a lot more midrange torque.
Still, to pull 1.5 seconds off his 1/4 mile time and trapp 102-103MPH is quite impressive for only another 40 wHP.
So if he does have some nitrous then it is a sleeper kit.
I'm sure when he dyno's we'll be able to see why his motor is so strong.
