id like low 11s eventually. the car is a basically stock daily driver. i havent really done enough research to tell you what turbo/injectors/fuel pump ill be going with. but i figure between 500 and 600hp should get me there. any suggestions are more than welcome. trans will be 3200 stall, i know that will affect my turbo choices a little.
Trans work near Chi...

You know there is more than one way to skin a cat. Do everything you can before you have to open the motor up for ported heads and cam. If you are not happy with just bolt-ons then get the ported heads and a roller cam.
You will have the tranny and the converter soon, you have the fuel pump, and FM. get an adj fuel regulator, good injectors. You can run the Motron #60, they work well, they are the biggest injectors you can run without modifying the drivers in your computer. Maybe a Transalator plus or a Gen II along with a nice chip. Good turbo for your hp goal and a good down pipe to go along with it. An Alky set up for the street would be sweet.
Then what happens after all that is that; you want to go faster than low 11's so it starts all over again.
Just remember, you are never done, vendors are constantly coming up with new and better stuff. As long as you have this car and the need for speed bug is still in you, you will be up grading to the next best thing as it comes along.

i have the adj regulator already in the car, i also have a couple of chips burned from ANS, id have to check what they were, probably a stage 2 and 3. but im looking to learn the ecu more so that i can do my own programming, i.e. run off the wideband at WOT...
60# sound good, just need a MAF and turbo to match em...

The new Translator (GEN 2, MAF system) and Translator PRO (speed density) both have WOT fuel correction off of the wideband.
Few of us locals using both.Where do you live?
Do you know Chad, he has an 87 GN and he live in Glendale Hts. Turbocliff also lives there.

ah yea, thats where my train to the city starts. glen ellyn to and from the loop every day... Sweet6 is in my area as well, he mentioned maybe stopping over this weekend, you guys are more than welcome to stop by as well, id love to see some other setups and get suggestions and what not.
Yes sir I take the west line from Lafox, IL which is small town east of Elburn. It takes about an hour and 10mins to get here. It comes in at the Oglavie center or 500 W Madision.
Man, you are like 4 blocks from me.
yea i usually grab the 435 or 509. sounds good, i can goto lunch whenever for almost however long i want. not many places between us that i know of, but there are plenty a block east of me off wells. awesome place that servers a gyro-burrito on franklin and jackson. yea, im a network administrator...so i sit in front of a computer all day with nothing to do unless something breaks...can be boring, but this site helps...but then again, it also causes me to spend ridiculous amounts of money on car parts too...
nope, it hasnt seen the road in almost a year and a half. it should be up and running(limping with the bad trans) by next weekend or so. I have a bus that picks up like 3 houses down from me and goes to the train station during both rush times. cheaper than driving and paying for parking.
