I call BS on you!!!! Many people have gone LOW 11's on e7's. Plenty have gone 120-125 also. Plus look at that car. It must weigh like 3100lbs.

it look like this face matters?


but honestly i dont see it happening. i dont think the e7's could flow that much to run numbers. everybody has thier own opinion

Edit: noticed that engine was a TT not just a turbo car. i can believe it now

Being a na kinda guy

If one is starting with a stocker ..................

and

(MOST IMPORTANT PART IMHO) One knows all the ramifications of a power adder combo ................

I'd say to start the whole modding thing off with a Turbo

as far as running fast with E7's, doesn't JR run 11's with his single turbo and stock longblock?

Get the turbo, get it tuned, your at 450rwhp right there, just make sure you have your midpipe, catback, and transmission upgraded. Turbo kit runs about 4800-5000. Then if you feel that 450rwhp isnt enough, upgrade the stock short block and do HCI and/or turn up the boost and then you would be pushing some serious HP.



I knew I wasn't gonna be happy with low 300's hp, so that was my plan...

haha but then I realized I wasn't gonna be happy with such a heavy car
