      Sorry to steal the thread,
      but stock injectors? fuel pump? I'm assuming mbc turned up? Any head work?

      I'm just trying to find what is all done to the car. If 12s are so easy to hit, how come you don't see every dsm on the street running 12s or better? I've got a pte50trim, should i be able to hit 10s? lol

        do a little research....

        I'm sure he had some sort of walbro fuel pump, an AFC, and the boost to whatever a 14b can handle...20psi probably....

        ..if you watched the video, even they were shocked that he ran that time
        and no you wont run 10's with a 2g cuz they're heavy as shit, the tranny will break and so will the motor probably.

        but like i said... sometihng probably tripped the sensor so it stopped the time at 12.1 🙂

          Nothing tripped the sensor...but the car.

            nope but you should be able to hit 11's, but you probably are in the 12's.

                Sorry, I consider fuel upgrades and a tuning device "not stock." Granted yea that's a great time for a car with such little mods, especially a 14b. But you bring up a new argument now about a 2g not being able to hit 10s? What did Brent Rau run again? 6.94 at 198.47, pretty sure that was a 2g. 2g's are only about 300lbs more than 1gs, but yes your correct in the fact that they are heavier. You make it out that 2g's are horrible compaired to 1gs. Neither car has a great tranny, especially when the car makes good power. Yes 2gs are more prone to crankwalk, but that doesn't mean a 6bolt can't. And just to prove I've done some research a 1g dsm runs 15.3 stock and a 2g runs 14.9 stock.

                Again, I'm not trying to be a prick at all, I was just really blown away with the fact that a "stock" 1g ran a 12.1 1/4. But after realizing he was on 110, and has other fuel upgrades it makes somewhat more sense.

                  You sound like you're heavy into tuning your own way, but once you get 'link you'll poop your pants from how easy it is. I know I did.

                  God dammit bring that bad bitch back up here and let me drive it!

                  I'm pretty sure a stock 1g runs faster than a 15.3.

                      You n00b dsmers are funny and retarded all at the same time. Kindof like those kids that had to go to class by themselves in junior high and highschool.

                            Stock 1g ran anywhere from 14.6 to 15.1 depending on the year. For 1/4 mile times go to http://www.albeedigital.com/supercoupe/articles/0-60times.html

                              DSM Tuners is FULL of people that have broken into the 14s bone stock. It all depends on a million different variables.

                                ^ok I'll drop it. you like 1gs more than 2gs and that's fine. When my motor goes, I'll throw in a 6bolt, but until then there's no point.

                                btw, search tuners for all the 2gs that broke into 14s stock too. imo I could care less what a car runs stock. But I understand I'm still a "n00b" so no matter what I say it doesn't really matter.

                                But with all do respect, the whole "no 2g can brake 10s" comment is bull.

                                    John w.. heres how you go fast on a budget:

                                    1.Make sure your engine is good 145psi or better
                                    2.Make sure your tranny can shift fast.
                                    3. ACT 2600
                                    4.Ported 2g manifold w/ pte 50 trim
                                    5. 550cc or bigger, S-afc, 255hp
                                    6.MBC set to 25psi w/ 110 octane
                                    7.fmic, no boost leaks
                                    8.NO exhaust ...
                                    9.4 bolt rear end or 3 bolt with many extra axles... Good luck finding them I think I broke them all...

                                    1. let me drive

                                    pretty much with that set up I ran 11.2@125 with stock engine..

                                      NGK-BPR7es gap down to .025-.028

                                          4. I did clean up the 1g manifold, didn't port match it or anything, 2g is better tho huh?
