not sure how to interpret that last statement tufte....but I think you meant to say that that DSM's have gone 10's in a 20G, well if thats the case, then why all the fuss about 60 trim or larger?

I finally broke into the 12's. Not a bad 60ft either. I can't wait to see my trap speeds after I put in my new injectors/intake/software.
Too bad I sold my wheels last tuesday, I had to run on my studless winter tires. They hooked up surprisingly well, Quattro AWD is the shit.
I can't wait until we get a decent day out there. I'm starting to get sick of this 90+deg weather everytime I'm out at Sabin. Maybe I need to start hitting the strip in the fall/spring not the summer. I need to see what this thing can do on a decent day. My new goal is sub 12.2
We'll see what happens. My best trap of the day was 111.

damn some of u put out suprisingly well numbers for the horrible heat
best of [email protected] with drag radials. then put on the ETstreets ( overkill, i know. just wanted to see how it did with them)
best of [email protected] pulled 2.0's everytime with one 1.944
if i still had my converter in, them tires wouldve really helped. -
Small Penis Syndrome = needs big turbo to compensate for...well...
acually, its just easier. spool up isnt a big deal when your on the track, and working a small turbo just creates alot of heat.

I'm getting the ET streets at cost otherwise I wouldn't be getting them.

That reminds me, get them back to me when ever you can. I'm in no hurry though. -

he's an electrician...he also lives with his parents so he doesnt really spend any money on anything but his car......from what i heard he brought it to some place in chicago thats specializes in Subaru's and is supposed to be the best in the nation....and it helps that his parents are loaded too...but he usually buys all his cars and his car shit himself....his brother has the turbo'd rsx

What are you talking about fuss of 60 trim or larger?Basically giving a lot of people shit, because every time I've mentioned FP Green or Red series turbos I keep hearing "Get a real turbo" or "Those are tiny". My question was, if a 20G/Green/Red can run in the 12/11/10 second range, why bother with a larger, slower spooling turbo if we're all gonna be running the same speeds? I'd much rather have the quick spooling turbo personally. I'm not trying to start a big e-fight, you guys have been in the game longer than me, I just wanted to know why the huge turbo mentality.

Huge turbo mentality leaves room for improvement.
Although people have gone 10s on a 20g, etc, it isn't as common because you have to push it that much harder. The stock 1g dsm 14b has gone mid 11s, but its not easy to get a turbo that small down there, and honestly it still can't be that much fun to drive. -

And the only debate about nitrous passes belongs with Matt. Only person we know of that its taken two power adders to run 11.2.
I might not be there yet, but I am not going to fall into the two power adder trap.And every weekend Dave and Matt are like "hey have you thought about a little nitrous?"
