Sleeper time, lol thats not to bad for street racing love the total stock look and sound. Here we had a 4 door nova that was a major sleeper single stock exhaust could not tell it was running until it dropped the 7.9 1/8 time on ya loved it

@Gorgoroth969 Haha yep I love a sleeper. I even took the window tint off to make it look as unmodified as possible. Also it's a lot quieter now than in this video, because I tied the wastegate back in to the downpipe. My goal is 6.90's (probably drag radials) but hoping to see at least 7.20's on standard radials. No one expects a stock looking/sounding Iroc to get out of the 9's 1/8th and 7's definitely gets some attention. Can't wait for 6's!

Not bad man, i would get an exhaust to help that thing breathe better. I picked up .5 second by getting dual 2.5" exhaust with my vortec 350. My best run was a 13.1 at 106 with a bad 1.99 60' and letting off going into second because my tv cable is fidgety. My best 1/8 pass was an 8.44 at 84 mph. I bet with an exhaust and a 2200 stall you could run high/mid 12s. CHECK my videos

what does that pass convert to in a 1/4 mile?

[zz3astro]

@xxfrijolxx The ET works out to 13.5 - 13.6 and the MPH supports 12.9 to 13.1

@zz3astro That's pretty sweet with an all stock engine(minus the turbo). I recently got an '88 5.7 tpi. You got any videos on how to fabricate the stock manifold to support the turbo?

[zz3astro]

@xxfrijolxx Thanks.. I updated the description with a link to my web page showing the setup.

Wow thats a good pass. What turbo are you running?

[zz3astro]

It's an Ebay T70.. so far so good at two months of use. Can't wait to go back when I get my torque converter!
