Why cant it run 11's? IF we have had gone down the drag set-up, i believe it would of ran some decent times. But Drag racing is not my thing.

Good insight , from someone who actually knows from experience and knowledge :)Quote:

Im not gloating, someone said to post some times and i did. Then i followed up with estimated 1/4mile time if we have had ran it before we took it out of the car.
Only reason i go to the drags is to make sure its running the right MPH for the dyno output. Times are irrelevant for circuit racing
No need to prove anything, the B20vtec we had was quick and we know it was a quick motor. Both data and results on the track has certainly proved this.
Anyways, have you got anything to contribute to this thread?
108mph isnt a 11 second pass...

Does another 5mph trap speed mean 11's ?
More b20 build results guys ! !
I'll have one very shortly
This thread has turned to poop I am going to play somewhere else :confused:
What benny says is of relevance. Me myself don't really give 2 hoots about drag times as its circuit times that are of relevance. Drag times for a circuit car are just pure curiosity to me, it has no bearing on what it is as complete package. Take a 5sec 1/4mile top fuel drag car to Bathurst and see what time it does. Does the top fuel drag car owner really care what time he will do around Bathurst??? I think not.
Same with us circuit guys, who cares if we do a 16sec 1/4mile time, if at the circuit its quick, then its quick.
V8 supercars post some of the fastest lap times on aussie circuits, but at the drags they only do an 11's. Does it mean they are slow??? Hell no!!!!!
Circuit cars and drag cars are chalk and cheese.
People that live on drag times to see how fast a car is should pull their heads out their arse and get out to a track and see how fast their car is then.
But going back to benny talking about doing 11's, at the end of the day you can't speculate. Yes it might be able to, but its the same as saying that when you set the lap record at Eastern Creek you could of gone faster. As true as that might be, until you go faster its pointless speculating
The times/figures are what they are. 12.9 is a 12.9, not an 11. It might be able to do an 11 but until the time is done there is no point speculating.
B20 is very underated in OZ. A fully worked B20 should be able to crack an 11.
There are people in the States that run 11's with B20's so thats proof enough.
So at the end of the day, yes a B20 N/A can crack 11's, but the BYP B20 has not... as of yet (maybe soon?? hehe)
this thread has gone down the drain abit :(
I have a question i would like to ask about the exhaust setups.
I was told a 2.5 inch catback to exhaust would be a better package then a 3inch catback to exhaust.
just want to know why would that be.
We done a open header test on the dyno. Open header didnt gain much over the 2.5' exhaust. By placing 3' exhaust is just for pure noise on a b20.Quote:
