Jus out of curiosity i wanted to know those of you that have gone with force induction whether it is stage 1, or 2..single or twin turbo..how much have ur cars improved on a 0-60...our cars stock are somwhere between 5.5-5.8 i believe so i just wanted to kno how much that really changes..

thanks in advanced.

 

enthusiasts tend to use the quarter mile to measure performance #s, id suggest you familiarize yourself with that, and you'll find your answer here and on my350z.com

 

no need for ur sugestion and i think jus about everyone on this site knows that but i did not ask that i simply want to kno 0-60 times for those out there that have gone fi.

 

What would one use to measure 0-60times? Gtech?

 

gtech or vbox or similar would be the only way for someone to measure the 0-60mph time with reasonable accuracy. im not sure that gtech would be that accurate, there are still a lot of variables with it.

id suggest time slips instead, you can break it down to look at different points of a run based on what was actually measured. 0-60 times- mainly published by magazines and manufacturers -not only have different conditions but may be manipulated to adjust for weather, conditions, etc... and you may not know it.

and all of that assumes you can get an accurate 0-60 estimate. 60mph doesn't take very long so the smallest differences in launch can have a large affect, or at least large compared to what most think is significant (tenths place)

 

They are low but not low enough.

 

^nice answer

 

nice

 

come on, nobody has an answer for this fellow? im curious too.

i told myself that i wouldnt go FI w/ this car, but lately, ive been thinking more and more of it.

 

like he said you can measure the 1/4 mile alot more accurate. How many people with FI cars are going to go out there and measure to 60 with their friend sitting the passenger seat with a stopwatch haha

 

I have no idea...if i were to guess though saying that they run around the same times as the 911 turbo...something around 3.7 - 4.2 seconds

Now you also have to take into factor that our cars gearing is different than the 911 turbo (obviously if you dont know this ..... ), but there 1/4 mile times are about 12.4 seconds with a 4.0 0-60. So with this in mind we should be right around that 0-60 time...if we are FI.

 

4.0s 0-60 is perfect with turbo, i think SC can do more than that.

Last night i raced chrysler Crossfire. We raced like 4 times, and the first two times i wasn't really racing him. with the light turned red, i said this is the time to show him what the VQ has. So, i switched to Map 1 on my Utec which is the 273whp and turned off the VDCl. When the green light turned green i was ahead like 2.5 cars length.
After the race, i went home to check the NET how many HP the crossfire has, and it has only 215hp for V6 3.2 engine WTF

 

ahaha

 

should have race with your VDC on and still win

 

lool, i didn't know it has 215hp
