i/h/e in the 1/4 runs high 14's with the gsr, 231whp with custom gearing, you tend to get wheel spin and remember, the faster you are its harder to shave off more time.

This is hard for me to believe. I am currently running the following setup and my best time so far has been 14.5@94.2mph in my xB:

TSI Turbo Kit with Stage 2 Fuel System
TSI Front-mount intercooler
Blitz Blow Off Valve
TSI Turbo Timer
Perrin Lightweight Crank Pulley
TRD Catback Exhaust with custom downpipe
TRD Clutch
Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel
Apexi Voltage Stabilizer
Nology Hotwires with NGK Iridium Plugs,
TRD Short Shifter

He might be running at a higher PSI than I.

I spoke with justin for about a split second tonight, he said he will make an account within a day or so. I sent him a link to this page and he said he'll respond. He appologizes for the wait but he informed me hes rarely online.

So just wait a little while longer guys, he should be here soon. lol

Well guys, my name is Justin and i see that i am a popular one here. lol yes, i do run low 14's and yes i do have modifications done that i can not disclose right now for quite a few reasons. I do have a few mod's done that i'm doing testing done, where i'm either the only one to have this to date or i'm the only one in the us known to have ___. I'm sorry i can't tell you everything right now, but hey, deal with it.

Newest mods i can tell you about is i have a custom fuel rail system, injectors, custom rod, stronger and custom motor mounts and a completely new, redesigned exhaust system. I actually was recently re-dyno'd this past week at 158whp @ 5,200rpm, 133wtq @ 4,550rpm. I do also, have custom gear ratios for 1st-5th. Unfortunately, i cannot provide a dyno sheet right now because my home computer is in the shop with repairs, i'm using a loaner for right now. It's a piece of crap but oh well. My best time to date is 14.2, i plan to break 13's by summer.

If you have any questions, i will answer them as soon as possible but do not ask me for information on the mods i can't speak about right now. Once testing or the companies give me the okay, then i will be able to let you know whats instored for the box to come if everything works out. I will say, that over half the mods i have are strictly imported. In terms of weight reduction, the following is done: Carbon fiber hood, hatch, side pannels, no a/c, no radio or speakers, no backseats, no spare, jack or anything in the back, no air bags, rear wiper motor gone, front motor wiper gone, "light weight" battery. Yes, this car is set up specifically for the track so i didnt need what i took out.

Oh just so you guys know, i do have a stand alone being worked out and once that is installed i do hope to break 170's, if i do i will be in the 13's.

This is hard for me to believe. I am currently running the following setup and my best time so far has been 14.5@107.3 in my xB:

TSI Turbo Kit with Stage 2 Fuel System
TSI Front-mount intercooler
Blitz Blow Off Valve
TSI Turbo Timer
DC Sports 4-1 Headers
Perrin Lightweight Crank Pulley
TRD Catback Exhaust with custom downpipe
TRD Clutch
Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel
Apexi Voltage Stabilizer
Nology Hotwires with NGK Iridium Plugs,
TRD Short Shifter

He might be running at a higher PSI than I. I am somewhat scared to run anything higher than 7 PSI. See if your buddy can find this guy and see what else he has on his setup.
nice setup but are something wrong there
TSI Turbo Kit with Stage 2 Fuel System
with.....
DC Sports 4-1 Headers

I don't think so,

Your et and mph don't match not even close. If you are going lie make it a little real this is so fake. 107mph in the quarter you should be running in the mid to low 12 second zone and have 290hp at the wheels I doubt any x/b has put out 200hp at the wheels. If your said say 14.8 at 90mph or 13.3 at 102mph then I would not say anything. Lets see a dyno sheet and a time slip from the track. Where do you guys get off making up all this poo.

Your information is so off, how do you think civic hatchbacks can do low 12's with only 180whp? Power to weight and gearing. Spare me your "logic", and please stay off my thread. I have asked you numerous times to stop posting this kind of false information on my thread.

With the right gearing, and power to weight a car can pull extremely hard in each gear and pull a fast 1/4 with low trap speed, or pull hard with a faster trap speed depending upon the car and so on. 290hp would put the xb in the low 12's? Please, spare me that. Quit going by the tC times because the tC with a driver weighs over 3,000lbs. Huge difference when you talk about lighter cars with much more aggressive gearing.

In closing, and stay off my thread if you are going to continue talking about something you obviously can't accept because you believe the tC is a prime example of what every car can do.

Now, back to the original point of this thread...

smokedby1nz, thank you for coming to scionlife! I'm sure once others view your post, you will have some excellent questions or comments.

Also about the 1,800lbs 138whp remark. It would not have to weigh 1,800lbs to get a 14.2. If the guy removed the a/c unit, all the seats and just had one racing seat, or two for the front, and gutted everything else and weighed him. I am willing to bet he would be in the 2,200lbs range. Like i said, i don't know what all he had done except what my friend told me. But its not impossible, some of you are really blowing up on here giving horrible information about what it takes to be in the low 14's.
zpi is running like 12.5's arent they with like 240 whp

so whoever in this thread is coming up with these numbers and times and ____ needs to die or just stop posting because its the most inaccurate posting ever,

my old camaro could put down 13s and it had just over 235 hp

zpi runs 12's with 300whp, now please stop talking about the tC. I only mentioned the tC because of Eddy's non-stop defense of false information.

This an xb thread, leave the tC out of it.

Justin;

Thanks for nothing, what no dyno sheet, broken computer, can't say what parts are on your box. Is this a black project with the goverment. I didn't see any video on your run or pics. Just proves when you make stuff up you can't back it up. Mph is true measure of your hp, et has to do with tranny gearing, rearend gears, traction your car's like lsd, tires, and the track your at. It is true that front wheel drive cars run more mph in the quarter since they don't hooked up as well as a rear wheel drive car.
That's why they have classes for front and rear wheel drive. If you see a high mph and a high et for that mph that means someone didn't set the car up right. Next if you see say a 12.2 at 102 that car is hooking up well ,you will lose some mph to lower your et thats ok. Most guys will add more power to their car go to the track and run more mph but not that much et since they didn't adjust their car for that amount of power. The best example I can give you is a car I saw in pro mod go 6.59@ only 200 at that time most guys were going 7 flat @200 and 6.6 @ 206 so hp is great but if you don't get it to the ground it's just a dyno sheet and a high mph with a crappy et.
