this will get really interesting with mods, he said he could pull a 12.80 with drag radials.

Don't forget 23psi...

it's gonna also be interesting to see how the new LNF model progresses in performance. In three years, they brought the LSJ's a LONG way considering the ecotec was a new motor for the US in.. what was it, '00 ? '01? It debuted in the J body's IIRC, but I can't remember what year it was.

Sounds to me as if it is tuned. As like the GTR thread, who ONLY changes the rev limiter or only a few things. He cut a 2.0 60', how much better can you do with a DR that will take off almost 1/2 a second to that time?

 

[Spicy McHaggiz]

can't wait to see the tranny shatter and the tuning to be fucked up!

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

No tune. Raise in boost to 23-24psi, and raised rev limiter, catback.


for those limited mods thats highly impressive. stock its probably good for high 13s

From the piece:

Well, even though these are excellent numbers for a car with just an exhaust and a tune, the current package is not optimized…yet. Weather was poor for high power.

Call me when he starts working on the HHR SS. Thats the true performer. PT Cruiser look-a-likes FTW!!!

I'm sure the mods are easily brought over to the HHR platform. Same drivetrain and such.

So you think thats minimal mods. I think raising boost to the max the turbo can handle is not the smartest. From what I was reading on the forums 23-24 PSI in certain weather you may start blowing hot air just like the srt-4 do at 20-21 psi on their stock turbos. Plus no one knows how stressful running those boost levels are going to be I aspected more out of this car atleast its got Brembos.

You expected more out of an entry level car? Sorry bud, but you aren't going to get a Corvette for 25 grand.
