11.62 @ 117 355 sbc TPI on 125 shot. I hope to run mid-low 10's with a 406 TPiS, Miniram, and a 200 shot.

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
I just got my MiniRam & 406 is being built as we speak. Good to see FI still running strong. I was just seeing alot of 3gens converted to carb. Just wanted to make sure I was going in the right direction.
Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
406 mini rammed, 10.87 best N/A, 10.0 best 150 shot..
Pump gas for both best. Engine now resides in my 94 with same efi set-up.

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
11.50's at 119 here for now... it will do 11.3's once i can hook at full launch and get some more gear. cool air it should touch 120-121 mph and 11.2's i hope. It SHOULD be doing 11.4's right now but i cant get it to 60 foot any better than 1.59 it seems. When i did go 1.55 i had other top end problems which killed the run.

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
why don't you drive here and i'll show you on the street. anyone can make there car hook at the track and go in a straight line but try to hook it on the street and take a corner. and then you can tell me about how fast you are.

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
I bet that is one cold ride up in Minnesota with those plex glass windows and all. How are those drag radials treating you on your commute to work in the winter? Post some pics of your ride we all like to look at fast cars.

Seems like only the slow people say that everyone can hook at the track and go straight.
Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
not only that, anybody who says "straight line" obviously hasn't been in a fast car on a small tire...especially on the street. As for taking a corner

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
my car ain't near as fast as yours, but it still likes to drift to the right with the wheels danglin...i can't wait to get the bar in hopefully it'll straighten this bad boy outwhat i wanna know is how a 20 y/o that works at NAPA can afford a brodix aluminum block. then after saving up the money to actually by one, he decides its a good idea to daily drive on one IN THE NORTH! does this just not make sense to anyone else? i'm calling BS on this one. i say post up pics of this all fiberglass (not sure why you would go to all the trouble, have you ever actually lifted a fender from one of these cars? not exactly heavy sheetmetal there) IRS suspended, aluminum 440cubic inch tpi monster (like a ported edlebroke junk tpi intake will actually feed that many cubes

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
Currently N/A went 12.8@104, highest mph 107 355 TPI full interior no weight-saving mods. And that was manually shifting my 700r4, my shift points aren't anywhere near optimal at the moment.
My goal with my build is to go as fast as I can on a 355 TPI using only mildy ported aftermarket parts N/A...nothing radical like some of the guys on the TPI board are doing, simply because I don't have the knowledge or access to the machinery to get 300+cfm out of an intake base. I know I've got more in my current setup now, and it's nowhere near optimal with my crappy headers, stock ported base and 48mm TB...plus I'm not running a whole lot of compression.
When I started this project I was told I'd be lucky to break 13.0s. I'm well into the 12s and with a few better parts hope to be in the low 12s...and from what I've seen locally and on this board, that's 383/AFR195 territory. Not too bad from a little 355 and 180cc heads.

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
I was just reading over this post and was wondering how many of you have upper control arms on your car? Maybe it's just to add some weight? I also call BS until I see a time slip and some pics of the car. My junk runs a best of 12.7 @ 107 Need stall and better rear suspension I think my mods are in my sig.

Maybe now my sig will show up.

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
I would really like to see pics also. I have pretty extensive mods on mine but honestly don't know what it can actually do. I make alot more than you do at NAPA and can't afford all the mods listed. And as far a never been beat on the street. In the town of 36 people, you must not have too many fast cars in that area. We have several cars in this area well over 1000hp and closer to 2000HP and with twin turbo's that has never been beat and looking to race. Bring your title. The only way I can keep up would be if I had a chain from my front bumper to their rear bumper.

He drives this around quite a bit but it is not his daily driver. Without time slips and pics, it's hard for people to believe.

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
ah new york street racers lol, there are alot of BAD cars up there, and crazy dudes that will line them up anywhere any time.
I would like to say I am a third genaration engine builder too (hey thats a pun....) my dad built engines, my grandfather built engines, and buildings lol
but seriously, claming a time without a slip is well kinda lame, and then comparing to rice...well that would go here

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
just got back from my builder & I got to see all the parts before it gets put together. Balanced Scat crank, balanced H beam 4340, even balanced pop up pistons, (within 1 gram). Cam to be announced.
w/ new brodix heads should come out to about 13.5-14 to 1 C/R.
Later today I called & checked on an Acell DFI, w/ custom harness, w/ wideband o2 & thats when I found out that my computer might cost about the same as my engine, ($3000)?????
Any other ideas or thoughts on computers ( i know, diff topic/board)

Re: Whos the fastest 3rdgen w/ Fuel Injection?
Anybody ever notice how fast, 9 and 10 second street cars seem to always run 13s and 14s when they finally go to the track?









i run 13s
