Is that CAI piping 2.5" ? Also, that sway bar needs upgrading!! TINY!
What trans is in there? 282 or the isuzu? What mount is being used?

1994 3100 BERETTA. 200,000+ miles 16.0 1/4 mile when stock. Now ???
Original L82 Longblock with LA1, LX9, LX5 parts
Manifold-back 2.5" SS Mandrel Exhaust. Hardware is SS too.
Yeah I know, just commenting on the pics. I'm glad I got rid of my 22mm front bar. I can now get on the gas decent when pulling out into traffic without sitting and spinning. Really helped out in preventing spinning with the wheels turned. I can now get on it while going through corners too.

by the way, what are you running for fuel system in pinky? I know you should be into the low to mid 13's, your not sleeping at the light are you?
Now its a Walbro 255 HP pump, at 62PSI on 28lb trailblazer injectors... Last year it was a stock pump at about 55psi with the same injectors maxing out when it ran the 13.9
No I'm not sleeping at the light and even that wouldn't matter ET is determined by the instant you leave the line, so sleep all you want your R/T just suffers. BUT my issue was traction, I was getting 2.2-2.3 60 foot times when I should be a 2.0 or lower... I was running Dunlop street tires when I made my fastest pass.
I'm still having a little trouble grasping this 13.5 from the video you posted, and lack of specs on some parts used, such as rocker ratio, cam profile, final drive ratio and stall speed on converter.
13's from an auto 3.1mpfi? Sorry but I find it hard to believe, no matter how done up the 3.1mpfi is.

try 44's you might get a little bit of a drain @ 1275-1300 but your et's should be in the 13.2-13.5 range.
What are 44# injectors going to do for a motor that I can EASILY make run at 10:1 a/f at 6700 rpm? Sorry but I think your lacking in some much needed info on how a fueling system will affect our cars.
I run at 80% duty cycle now on my injectors and that's at 11:1 a/f on the rich side, 44# injectors will only lower my duty cycle, NOT increase my HP output. Maybe if it was 100% duty cycle and only getting 13:1 a/f at WOT then there would be some gains to be had... but sorry that's some bad advice.

Jon i'm not talking about duty cycle, which shouldn't affect you until 5800-6200 rpm, which should be around 1250-1300ft, in final drive, if you were to run 44's you will have to change the pulse and timing, i'm sure you will gain the extra 10-20lbs of torque it get into the low 13's. If I were you I would get a satallite o2 sensor system to see what amount of fuel you are actually wasting, what are you running for fuel on race day? please tell me its not 87...
Ok, I'll be the dick... You said you have a car that will run 13.5s, yet you show a slip that shows a 13.3...
13.5 is a constant, you probably don't drag. 13.3 is the best time, the best day, the best fuel, the best of the best sir, with a salute, I dont know you so I wont call you ignorant, but that's the best slip I have ever gotten with her.
Yes that was on a 87 and WOW big spender 89 octane mix... Why you may ask? Because my compression is 9.15:1... no need for high octane race fuels, when I run the nitrous I'll be running 94 octane. You dont know tuning but your trying to tell me to change the pulse and timing... I'm not going to gain anything by putting a larger injector in my car other than it being used less...
You can water a plant in a pot with a garden hose just fine, put a fire hose in its place and you need to choke it down otherwise its a useless upgrade, so seriously WTF?
I was about to give you a chance to redeem yourself from the BS that happened on bstuff, but this BS you are spouting off is killing that greatly.
And sorry there bub... 13.3 @ 105mph?
I don't think so.
15.69@89... That sounds more like your car. 13.2's at 1000' maybe but not 1/4 mile.
Let me introduce myself then... I'm the site owner. Been around for a few years...
Although I don't drag consistently, I have been out to the track many times. And if consistency is your explanation, then perhaps you should have mentioned that in your original post. Something like "the only 92 GT Auto that WILL do a a 13.5 consistantly, with a personal best of 13.3". Jon, for instance, has ran a 13.996 NA. He goes around saying his car will run a 13.9. But I'm betting its closer to a consistant 14.1 or so...
