Dave

No offence dave, but you're going to need more than a CAI to knock off 0.5sec in the 400m.
I think the figure is around 20kw or thereabouts more to get that kind of time.
I do hope you run close to a 14, but i'm just being realistic.

Im fairly confident that i can do at least .3sec faster with just a better launch and 1st to 2nd change

True, but there is a limit to how much you can cut off just by a good launch and gear shift, you'll eventually need to employ the use of a stronger clutch etc. but im sure you know that.

to get .5 sec down the quarter in my attesa, i needed an extra 30kws at the wheels, and that was with consistant launches and gear changes.

and even when i was testing how to launch the car, when i first went, it didnt really make a difference how the gears got changed, being realistic you'll be lucky to get a .1sec difference with good gear changes.

this is just experience talking

Ill be doing shitloads more work than that.

Mods will be as follows:
Top end,
Fully reconditioned head inc,modified camshaft, all new valves, porting and it will have to be shaved aswell which will bring the compression up to about 9.5:1

Bottom end,
All new acl flat top pistons(1.0mm oversize), bearings,rings, Balanced and linished crankshaft(pistons,flywheel and clutch will be balanced too), it will be bored to 2.5 to 2.6 ltrs(the guy doing it still has to work out what it will be but it will definatley give me 100cc more(2.5ltrs)

Management will be a full custom tune from noss

Allready have 75mm AFM and 3in intake, extractors 21/2in exhaust and K&N pod

Engineer said he would be very dissapointed if it didnt do a 14 secound pass as it did 15.8 stock apart from previous "already haves"

Ill keep you posted

It all depends on your ignition map.

11.5:1 is usually quite safe on 98 octane.
