anyone with a turbo k8 faster than a 13.8 ?

Post by K8Boosted »

over the summer i ran an 13.8 with my k8 turbo i spent around 1300 on the setup this was a practice round for the kl turbo setup im working on now

my setup was a stock 130,000 mile k8
stock clutch
t3/t4 hybrid turbo 57 trim
pvc intercooler piping lmao :)
220cc injector
walbro pump
pipes off ebay
don't laugh remember this was a practice so i went is cheap as possible
all in all i was very impressed with the time

No time slip for proof (i have no reason to lie so ull just have to trust me

from what I understand, it is already blown up. But he has a KL in the works though I think...

I was playing with my G-tech today, and it says I have 180 BHP, and about 150-155 WHP.

which should be good for a 14.99 pass or so with my slicks easy.

And that's on only 7 psi. I will try a 12psi run later on this week if the weather holds.

cheers

ya, I have tested mine at the track with my nova, and it was always within .1 of a second and 1 or 2 mph.

close enough I think :)

i think that for the sake of the good old N/A K8 gang, you should change the topic name for :
" anyone with a turbo k8 faster than a 13.8 ? "

:D

Ya the k8 turbo was just for turbo practice i learned alot about turbo setup's and had a great time driving it....... Yes right now im piecing together a new setup..... I just got all the new parts together and started the biuld... you could say the goal is having a perfectly tuned and running mx in the 12's..
