<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (hamhead)</div><div class='quotemain'>N/A 13.0 isn't possible</div>
True.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>I don't see a 12 sec Tibby either...although its possible. You would need the engine blueprinted, and from what I've seen of the Tib's guts... new pistons, new rods, new rings, new axles, get rid of the open differential, new suspension.</div>
We have a few of them. Viper966, DJAlkyd, they both run 12's now. Viper will prolly be the first one I know of to break 10's.

I'm curious to maybe see some dynos or vids out of Viper. He's pretty much cryoed and balanced the entire engine from what I've heard. Lotta cash to put into a Hyundai tongue.gif
On the side note, 13.0 is going to be around... 300WHP with FWD on slicks with an LSD on a good track in perfect conditions. I don't see even pure race-bred engines (N/A) getting anywhere near that.

BBTB (68-70 mm)
3" Mandrel-bent Catback exhaust
Speed Factor Extreme Turbo Kit (minus the SAFC II)
Haltech E6X
Wiseco Forged Low Comp Turbo Pistons
Pauter 4340 Billet Rods
Tigerlily Forged Crankshaft
Quaife LSD
A good shop that can install the engine internals, install and program the standalone ECU, and can properly tune the whole thing.</div>
That there about sums it up. With a little more here and there maybe.
As for Viper, hopefully we can get some vids of him if he comes over for Cottage Fever in May. Should give him some time to get his shizz together.

OK, so i pushed it abit with a 12, truthfully I just want to beat the F@#% out of this Chevelle that runs out here at Moroso. His BEST has been a 13.6, thats all I gotta beat. I was just getting greedy with the 12 sec. As all of us want to do, I just wanna smoke the B@#%^ in the muscle car.

Yeah we got some SRT-4's over here in AZ that are running some pretty srtong ETs. I gotta find the picture agian but a kid named Jordan is running like hight 12's in his beast. I'll get a dyno and slip from him. This thing is a monster. All we want to do is just smoke these srt-4's. Got nothing agianst them just wanna smoke'em

SRT-4's kill our cars. From what I've seen around is that w/ 5g's you can have a 500hp SRT-4 w/ no probs. Thats got us owned.

Oh no you got me all wrong, I WILL get my car to that point. Will need to do something bout the engine though dont know about 180k miles and trying to run that much power. Dont think the little box would agree...
