IS IT IMPOSSIBLE?
 

Can an Auto S197 hit 10s naturally aspirated? or is it impossible? what do guys think?

With full bolt ons, suspension work, slicks, and a sh*t load of weight reduction.

like the driveline riding on only the frame and 1 lightweight seat?

Impossible.

Add forged pistons, rods, crank, + roller cams, 4.30 gear, 11:1 compression, oh youmight wanta new block, ported/polished heads, and one good driver, and some practice at launching,yeah you are there. just my opinion.

They have your answers in the video section.. with just few boltons they hit 360 rwhp N/A ....

going to10's is really hard N/A u have to lot **** loads of work on your car... im planing to hit hi 11's in the future.. I dont want more than that.. right now I have ordered many boltons and I think I will be in the mid o12's after I get the good tires too...

10 seconds is a BIG accomplishment. It's going to cost a lot of money and it's a lot more cost effective to get a SC. I'm not saying you'll get into the 10s with a SC, but theHP : $ ratio is a lot better.

Also, get down that low and be prepared to have a roll cage installed or get booted off the track.

total n/a, i dont think so. Think you can get 700rwhp from the GT engine alone?? just buy a FI

FI = $6000
Internals = $2000-$4000 2k is min.
Gears, Suspension, tires, etc = $3000-4000

I bet you could make a 10 sec car with 10+ grand. JMO but i could be wrong

Impossible. Well, not impossible, but by the time you got there you'd have changed your car so much it wouldn't even be a S197 anymore. Rather it would be,....well,.....something else.
