Talking how fast? would the k20 w/50-shot run the1/4 mile?

I was wondering what an type s would run in the 1/4 mile with like a fifty shot of giggle gas. Im thinkin of doin the swap to a k20 and i have a "NOS" wet kit on my d17 now. I'm still dissapointed with the results after i strapped on the nitrous, I got 15.6 on the 1/4. By the way I'm runnin with a DX... (DX 4 life)...with aem cai and skunk2 exhaust and my reaction time was close to a .975 which i know is really bad. A 15.6 will only keep up with a 2000 or 99 SI. Before i was runnin 17's. its fun to shoot nitrous and i know if i get done with the swap ill definietly strap on the nitrous on the k20. I know that a 1 1/2 seconds is a lot to shave off but do any of you think a type-s with a fifty shot can take an evo or sti? I think the sti runs like low 13's or 13 flat. what 1/4 mile with nitrous on a type-s? how fast would the k20 w/50-shot of nitrous run in the 1/4 mile?

with a 50 shot, you could lose up to 1.5-2.0 seconds or so, with the k20a2. thats what i heard on clubrsx.com

WOW... thata seems like a HUGE gain for only a 50 shot... i have seen .9 or so gain at most with a 50 shot... i would say a vic with a 50 shot and K20, IF IF IF IF IF you can drive and get traction should be mid-low 13s.... without hondata and stuff.... high 12s with maybe... noone really knows....

damm u smoked a sti with the forced induction d17. ROFL ....he must have had that O face when u passed his *** by. i love teachin those fools lesssons with fast cars. i think those guys that buy an sti or evo arent real tuners they jus call themselves "racers". i call'em stock **** talk racers. cause they bought they're car fast subaru made the car fas they didnt. i have way more respect teh guy who can shave 3 sec. of his car from stock rather than a guy who bought an sti or evo. dont get me wrong i anit a hater and i love the sti and evo its jus the people who are posers when it comes to racin that talk smack. yo future burn an sti for me thanxs for the info.

I have an STi with an APS SR50 turbo, 3.5 turboback exhaust, AVC-R and will soon be putting on an APS FMIC. I laid down 329whp at 100% injector duty cycle. But I guess i'm not a real tuner . I guess the guys who ask about expected times with nitrous on a motor they don't even have are the real tuners of this world.

Depending on how u drive, but ideally mid 13's.

A 50 shot dropped me a whole 2 seconds, and that's with a less than perfect 60 foot and hot *** weather.

I def wouldn't spend all that money on a swap and then ruin a motor that has great NA potential.

But thats just me.

Spend 7 grand (if you do it yourself) of your hard earned money on that swap and then tell me you wanna squeeze........

Wouldn't your injectors burn at 100% duty cycle? None the less seems quite fast!

it isn't quite 100% duty cycle. They won't burn at 100% but it does decrease the life. I will upgrade the injectors as soon as a STi specific fuel management unit comes out. The ecu on the US spec STi is unlike any WRX ecu. I want to figure out what it takes to convert to a JDM STi fuel system. The JDM sti uses 560cc top feed injectors, and the US-spec got crappy 480cc side feed injectors .

yea just decreases their life and limits your car on how far u can take it, if ur maxing out ur INJ then there is no going up another notch,
this bad boy maxed out 1000cc INJ, at 32psi
