Any S/C 1/4 times?

I've seen a bunch of cars putting down #'s in the 400 hp range, but no times. Just wondering what "normal" guys run with that sort of power. Thanks, Sean

RE: Any S/C 1/4 times?

i saw a supercharged automatic w/ a sct custom dyno tune that didnt impress me at all... his best was a 12.99@111... the guy owns a local shop called dynospeed racing, and he had his dyno chart with him... 421hp and 419ftlb... and only 111mph??? dont know... his first pass was a 13.2... seems like it should have been faster...

yea but you got a 318 stroker and a supercharger not to mention a 97... if i had to guess, i would say he was looking for 05 times... since this is the 05 4.6 specific section...

Thanks. All the companies have been advertising 11's but I want to see what normal guys are doing. I would think for the average guy who hits the strip maybe once a month would be pretty far off from those times. Either way i'm sure they are a hell of a lot of fun on the street.

it'll be the saleen for me, but personally i don't care if i can't launch/shift my car well enough to get it in the 11's. i'm not going to put a drag set-up suspension or skinny tires in front w/ 15" welds in the back. 400+ rwhp is what it is, when you floor that biotch it's gonna be fun

12.99 @111mph, it looks like it's not hooking up. By looking at the MPH, with good short times it should be in the low to mid 12s?

no... he had m/t et drags on 15" prostars on back... he wasnt spinning at all... it was just horrible... if i spent 3500 on a s/c and it only dropped me a half a sec, i would take it off and send it back...
