i was just wondering if there was a kit available a automatic tc that would get me going about 13 or faster, dont have the money now for anything like that but would just like to know so maybe i could invest in that

 

13sec is pretty fast.... Pretty much I think you're gonna need LOTS of boost. Evo's run a low 13 STOCK just to compare.

 

im not sure what thread it is but there is a thread on automatic turbo's...u will need wider tires and maybe LSD i heard after 12psi or so and automatic starts slipping so good luck on ur research

 

you can start by taking those two 12 inch subs out of your trunk.

 

after 12psi?

stock auto tranny starts slipping at anything over 210whp

 

you would need a zpi stage 1 kit .. tranny upgrade.. and an emanage ultimate tuned by the dock (Kenny) and id say you are good to go! Maybe some pistons and race bearings for safe measures but then you could boost 14 psi easy. I am sure it is doable but no one has attempted a 1/4 run yet in an auto to try i think. i could be wrong i know i havent tried the track yet.

 

ive ran at the track 4-5 times with my auto...

 

210 WHP? Don't you mean 250 WHP?

 

Yeah the tranny doesnt slip at 210....atleast mine didnt....

 

My tranny is fine at 230... I haven't taken it on any 1/4 runs yet though, so I can't help you with that estimate.

 

230 to the wheel? So i guess ur car is putting around 250-260 to the crank?

 

So am I the only auto to go down the track?

 

As of right now, I believe so.

I'm not there yet. Coming soon but by the time it's in the track will be closed for the winter.

 

I gotta get my 60 foot down!!!

 

i just remember talking to Peteyd when he said he had 210whp and he said the tranny would slip a bit

 

^
slippage at 210 doesn't sound right at all.


but back to the question...13's in an auto. i heard about 1 yesterday. pushing 16psi, 350whp..fully built motor, no tranny mods. no its not a kit.
13.9s @101

 

^Ummm I think you may be talking about me, but to clarify

The run was at 13psi, and was 13.9 @ 101 with 2.96 60 foot

 

i guess it was you.

i was talking to paul @ dezod yesterday. i got all the other numbers right tho!congrats on that progress.

 

2.96 60 foot?

yeah there is plenty of time to make up there. You could easily be a low 13sec car if your 2.96 was more of a 2.1/2.2.

I presume you did a lot of spinning, which would equate to the 101 trap speed. Get your traction right, your ET would be better, but your trap speed will go down natually.

 

yeah that damn tranny slippage is killer
