TTS Rotrex race kit

 

Wow I need to get on the dyno and see what I'm putting down, becuase i'm most definitely more motivated then a measly 11 sec 60-130. I'd say closer to 8, maybe 9 on a bad day. But yeah my car isn't built for dragging, its built to be a balanced road course car. 5 sec is nuts, would love to experience that.

 

Idk man. That as fast or faster then mine. Ehh def get on a dyno. But a turbo car will have a broader powr band. That's hubs turbo car should be faster onna straight line.

 

I'll let you know in a couple months. Camuman your going to wish you hadn't got rid of your sot kit Might have been a nice upgrade.

Yes a turbo car has a broader trq curve, but also consider the rpms we are talking about for this kind of run (6.5-9k rpm) where a Centrifugal car happens to make its peak trq range. What it comes down to is response, wight and gearing.

 

Checking in on this thread. My AP-1 with the 3.90s in the rear and 275/40-17s reaches above 130 mph in 4th gear. The limiter is at 9550 rpm.

Hey Junky, At 500 rwhp (about 290 torque), I ran a 650+rwhp (440 torque) turbo S2000 from roughly 60 to 130 mph. His car was 1-2 hundred pounds heavier and would have tested about 750 rwhp on my dyno. The massive torque of that GT35 turbo had him passing me just past 100 going a good 20 to 30 mph faster and running away. His turbo lag allowed me to stay in front for about 3 seconds and then it was all over. Centri superchargers at peak torque are far less than a good turbo across the entire 5000 to 9000 rpm range. The best way to deal with the energy loss to the supercharger if you want to compete with a turbo is to add a little N2O shot. Replace that lost torque that is spinning the supercharger and add a little more too. Perfect for 5.0 second 60 to 130 mph. N2O and a parachute are possibly my next mods.

Sounds like you ran into a hell of a turbo, that's quite a handy cap running a car with 250 more whp and a hell of a bump in trq. Besides the added variable of normally a 3rd shift to 5th on stock gearing, do you think your gearing helped or hurt you in that mph race? I question if your 290trq is enough to make use of your tall gearing? N02 might really be a good option for you.

 

11 sec 60-130 really isn't bad at all. Based on the only stock number I could find (23.5), that's 12 sec faster than stock. That's a massive improvement.

My car is setup for DEs also, gearing, alignment, tires, brakes, springs, sways etc etc. What people like about 60-130, is that your car doesn't have to be setup like a drag car. The only problem I see with a properly setup DE or road racing car with respect to 60-130 is if you had big aero which increases drag.

Don't want to end up in the same old blower vs turbo argument, but the centri blown cars will never stand a chance against a well setup turbo s2000 in the 60-130 run. The last 10-20 mph, from 110-130 are greatly affected by torque. Particularly for a car like ours which has a relatively poor Cd.

That's why I specifically asked for supercharged 60-130 times. I'm sure there are turbo S2000s in the 6's 60-130, maybe even faster. I doubt there's a blown car quicker than 9.0, with the possible exception of that crazy big rotrex car referred to above.

I still suspect that most of the blown cars making up to 425 or so wheel are greater than 10 sec, prob greater than 11 sec 60-130.

I guess it has to be said, I'm not saying anything bad about supercharged cars. I going to supercharge my S, and I'm just curious how it may do in this one particular test.

 

I really wish I coulda contributed to this before selling my SC setup..

Damn, that Rotrex car is fast!

 

Mine did 100-200km/h (62-124mph) in 10,56 vortech stock boost and e85.
