porksoda Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 I'm in between going with a radix or an sts rear mount in my truck. I'd like to get around 500 to the wheels and run low 12's, maybe even break into the 11's. Ultimately the truck was already set up with a radix before I purchased it hence some of the mods. I just have different goals than the previous owner. current mods Walbro 255LPH Comp Cams 218/224 562/567-114 ZO6 yellow springs 7.4 hardened push rods zippytune 160 tstat Pacesetter LT's Corsa Transgo HD-2 Shift kit corvette servo 05 efans Volant CAI FRI 3200 stall trans cooler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porksoda Posted July 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 Another thing i forgot to add is am i being reasonable with these goals or will I need otger mods. I would really just like to have a fast street machine that has the possibility to tear off an 11 on a good day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003_SuperSport Posted July 28, 2013 Report Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Your setup with a radix should get you in the low 12's to high 11's as long as you have something to battle high IAT's. Such as a Phenolic spacer for the radix and meth or NO2... Those mods and a 50-75shot NO2 will get you mid 11's IMO... Meth and a spacer will get you probably high 11's... But this is all IMO... The key is trying to keep that heat pump cool, Once you have done that the mp112 is a great blower still and will get you 11's all day with a small pulley and supporting mods... Not to mention that instant torque from the dig edit: You're probably going to need another fuel pump some 60lb injectors and might as well throw a 90mm TB and J-tube on her and you'll be mid to low 12's now and mid to low 11's with mentioned above....

MID12sSSS Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 I would like to think im at 500 AWHP, but ill never know for sure. For all i know, im barely over 400. Lol. People always ask, "how much horses are you pushing"? Its hard to give them an answer. Rather than boring someone who knows nothing about vehicles with specs from the build, i just say im around 600hp at the crank. That usually makes their eyes light up and its the best guess ive got for output power without having it dynoed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also just tell people aproxamate crank HP's as there is no way for me to tell to the ground... 600-650hp at crank is around 500AWHP 650HP/25%AWD parasitic loss=520HP to the ground... I just add up the low end claims of what others have gained from their mods (so if I ever do a dyno I won't be disappointed LOL) and add it to the base of my hp such as a radix makes 120hp so 345+120=465 and so on...

2003_SuperSport Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Goddamn dude. First time I read your sig. I'm impressed. Bet it moves. She runs like a rapped ape when its cool outside LOL. It scares me everytime I go WOT cause it screams and something has to give eventually.. The IAT's are killing me and Wheatley and I have been fine tuning the sh%t out of it... Been getting alot of Knock and now I am down to a managable 1-2's but still not perfect... Need better fuel up here... errr... and the only e-85 station for 85 miles closed up here... I could get some av-gas from the airport at $7 a gallon... Meth, Nitrous, Brakes, spacer, bigger coolant resovoir, 8 rib kit, are all future must needs to get this pig knocking at the 10's door... after thousands of dollars and hundreds of labor hours I am getting there...

ocelot729 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 This is something I'd like to know myself, I'm looking into the SNOW performance meth kit (stage 3) and Dynatech LT's with cats. I'm trying to keep out of the inside of the motor, she's getting close to 100K and I'd like to avoid diving into the motor. (cam, rockers, an such) I'd like to get close to 500-ish at the wheels. Roast me some Lightings and 'Stangs I have: Radix MP112 intercooled. Corsa Sport Volant CAI w/Scoop 160 Stat and that's really it, with a Stage 3 Meth and smaller pulley, headers and good tune could I get close to this? Or should I go into the motor with a cam, rockers and all new seals? The Trans was rebuilt no to long ago and shifts her ass off, so I'm not too worried there ( and yes it was built as a performance Trans not a stocker, lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MID12sSSS Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Cant wait to get my spacer installed 150 degree IATs yesterday in 82 degree weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
