will my car run 14 seconds?

I'm not usually much of a bench racer...but this seemed interesting-my buddy just bought a new scion fr-so (not supercharged). Online specs say it's about a 14.9 second car...also it says the stock 93 240sx is a 16.1 second car. I just rebuilt my motor and haven't installed it yet.

My mods:
- Sohc pistons for a little higher compression
- 98 model head with 3 angle valve job
- Port matched intake with butterflies removed
- msd blaster 2 coil
- walbro 255 lph fuel pump
- 4-2-1 header with 3 inch exhaust
- egr block-off plate
- electric fans
- no a/c
- no p/s
- removed charcoal canister
- adjustable fuel pressure regulator (can someone tell me the ideal setting for it? It was on the car when I bought it)
- stage 3 6-puck clutch
- 1.2" drop springs
- kosei r-seneka wheels with 215s out back
- poly mounts

Do you guys think that this will get me into maybe the mid 14s? I know gains are a lot harder to get on a N/A motor. Thanks for any input!

Kevin

My car is not yet together or we would have already raced and this thread would have never been made. Thanks though.

It's going to be a mighty boring race either way.

Keep it on the strip please.

A lot of it has to do with your driving skills,suspension setup and most importantly what tires you have.but with yours parts list I don't see a massive whp gains to make a massive difference in your 1/4mile to a stock ka24de.

Adj fuel pressure reg and high flow fuel pump with stock injectors?

Now that you're a bench racer you can make better guesstimates with this

Doesn't matter. Both cars are slow as hell. Trying to extracting real power from an N/A KA is pretty high on the list of collossal wastes of time.

I say no, you won't be able to win the FRS unless you totally strip out your car. You may stand a chance! Then again paper is one thing and actually racing is a whole other thing. Let the driving do the talking.
