Pretty happy with my time. Ran a 2.18 60' on BALD (they are at the wear bars) stock (hankook) tires. That run I beat my friend who has an 06 eclipse gt 3.8.
So I have mpfab intake, zzp catback with a magnaflow resonator, trifecta advantage, and I did the IM porting. The car WOULD NOT go into 3rd under throttle ALL DAY, this was the only run it did and it wasn't a no-lift so I dumped boost. The rest of the runs I missed the 2-3 shift. I ran pretty much 15.0 at 93 consistently because I had to granny shift third. Probably won't ever put my car through that again.

What track was that at?

Track
Portland international raceway.
I'm thinking the upgraded turbo and 42lb injectors will bump this down to 14 flat or better.
A good idea is to cut out the intercooler grill and ad directional fins on both sides so air is more effective in cooling.

If you consider that the stock whp on the sonic is 120 and the bhp is 138hp, that is only a 14% driveline loss. So, if your making 193 whp, that is equal to 224 bhp.

The gtx turbo will pick it up half a second, thats the gains we have so far, but we have not finished yet, plenty left to gain. But out car is extremely heavy so it might be a little less, weight with me now is 3100 lbs, ls or lt weight in the 2700 range. And our average altitude in summer is 2500 ft, at your altitude this car would run 13.90s right now

Yea, its too bad The Sonic is generally a heavy vehicle. The torque this car has is insane. If it didn't have that reinforced steel for safety, it would not have won the top safety picks. It is made well when safety comes to mind.
Im looking forward to the upgraded turbo GTX badge as well

Does the ram air setup really work with 1 bend in it? Will the ram air only protrude one direction? These things only work at speeds of 70mph +

That is great...the air scoop was just so impressive in person regardless of whether it works or not.
Will you be producing just the scoop and then I have to buy a CAI to go with it
like you have?
