I would like to know some 1/4 times or even 0-60 times.

Please tell me what kind of pully u have or what other mods u have. and also if your car is auto or manual.

thanks

i am not expecting to many replies because i dont think to many people have pullys.

0-60 Times

I have gotten 6.5's in the 0-60 with 18 35 255 tires not on stock tires and rims, they have a shorter roll out and could net better times but I can not fit them over my brake kit. I have not gotten any 1/4 mile times with my car.

6.5 is pretty impressive for this car. even though its not with stock tires.

i know u have some other mods on your car. did u get the 6.5 sec. with just the pully or did u have other mods at that time also?

At that time I had the pulley, and the lower diff installed. I will run some more 0-60 times later this month with the ECU added and intercooler upgrade also. I would like to run in the 70's if possable that is close to the temp's when I tested before.

Oh, what about the new CAI that was being discussed earlier? Could you include that in the run?

I took my car with pulley to the track but it was my first time and all I can tell you is that it looks easier than it is. I got really bad times like in the low 16's (factory stock should get into the high 15s). I'll try again when the weather cools a bit in September. It would be great to organize a track event for us in So Cal at Carlsbad Raceway. With our mild cars I can't imagine that it would hurt the car as I usually drive that way normally. The trick I've heard is to rev to about 2,000 and let off the clutch so that you accelerate as fast as you can without spinning your wheels and with a slight chirping along the way. Remember that you need this finesse while lights on the tree are ticking off and people are watching and there's another car in the lane next to you. Way more skill than beating someone out at a light. If you have an automatic then it's a no brainer, step on the gas at the right moment and go.

My guess is that the shorter gearing in the diff is responsible for a big chunk of the time improvement.

I agreed with you because i changed out my E30 M3 4.10 factory diff. to 4.27 and it reduces half a second 0-60 but the highway cruising speed noise not too pleasant.
