TT v6 vs. T T/A (VIDEO!)
I made a post a while ago that i raced a turbo trans-am (my buddy) But i never posted the vid because it was un-edited and i dont like having my license plate all over the internet, expecually when im racing . .
Anyhoo.
Backround Story:
The trans-am is my friend nick's It is running on wastegate the whole time, he has a base dynotune but is schedualed to go in for further tuning, he is seeing 6-8psi durring this video. On this paticular day we were bored and both of our cars were not in tip top shape (he was having boost issues and i was having heat issues) But we went out and screwed arround anyhow.
The v6- Stock motor, Twin Turbo kit from Justin@VMPtuning.com running 8psi low and 15psi high. Stock t5 tranny, stock 7.5" with posi and 3.73's
The T/A- single 76mm turbo, H/C/I LS1 stroked to 383CI, built T56 tranny, stock 10bolt
1st run: from a roll in 3rd gear on the HW, me on low boost, i accidently spun to 7000rpms (scared the **** outa me)
2nd run: from aroll in 3rd gear on the HW,me on high boost.
3rd run: from a dig, me on high boost. We both get alittle nasty in 2nd gear, hey sometimes torque happends when you have a turbo
without further adue (sp?)

No the turbos are not wrapped yet. they just have those little dinky metal heat shield (i doubt they do ****) It is all coated However, the coating is over 2 years old i believe.
I am going back to justin when i get some 1/4 mile times under my belt, i wanna go run with my current setup on street tires, and on slicks. Then i will install my 1.8RR's and go to Justin for the retune. I think i am going to get a MSD 2step though, for launching on slicks.

yea the video doesnt make me look too good because all you can hear is his car, and of course because his car is damn fast.
But i immagine he is going to be trapping 130+ or so when its all said and done so im not too upset
