I saw a highpo turbo riviera and the guy that owns the b4 black website. But what is the fastest?
OOOO that would be ME!

I'm getting with it. just can't do as much as fast with customers vehicles at my house too. Wish I could work on my OWN stuff and get paid for it.
too bad us hybrids dont count!
or you would all be crying right now!
:biggrin:A.j.
Ask Adam how well nitrous works on one. I think he's using it.
To get to the 13's the car has to be running perfectly, alky, high boost, and a really good suspension. FC27 (?) has gotten his in the low 13's as well as a few others.
If you haven't taken a look at the turbo thread you may what to Walt. I think this would be the best idea for you to get it faster but you really need to port the heads heavily and get a better than stock cam. You can make it faster.
Found my cam card. It's a Sig Erson 'Turbo 1' cam:
209/210 duration
.491/.466 lift with the 1.66 ratio roller rockers.
112.5 lobe center
I hated this cam! It had poor low-end and only got about 13 mpg in town.
I picked up a milder GSCA cam years ago. Its a 200/200H. I'll give it a try and see if it makes the car more streetable.
Have an 86 GN turbo in stock. I always wanted to try it. Thought about simply putting a thermostat housing on the compressor outlet to adapt it to the intake manifold!
