QuoteThe interior is also exclusively designed for the turbo model
I hate when people lie... ><
QuoteThe stats with 12 psi boost are as follows, 0-60: 6.05, quarter: 14.2, top speed: 151 mph
I'd love to see him go 151 in that... I top out at 122 and I don't see it hittin 151 without a LOT of work and only a T25...
yea I laughed a little on that one myself :icon_lol:
With an add like that sounds like the turbocharger is probably shot and the bearings slap wore out. I would stay away from that one low mileage or not.

I live about 30 miles north of there, think about going down this weekend and taking a look see
As I've said before, the older cars would allow the engagement of 4th gear at WOT resulting in a higher top speed. Our cars are limited to 128mph. The typical chipped TGP could hit 150ish with no speed governor, but it wouldn't be getting there very quick..
That TGP looks to be in really nice shape. :icon_cool:
Looks good minus the spoiler.
I'd like to see him run a 14.2 in stock trim.
i think you could
downhill with a tail wind maybe
if by downhill you mean bein dropped from a plane then ya, it might hit that speed... lol
I cut out at 122 not cuz of the governor, that's just all my car has in it, and honestly, as funny as this may sound, before I fixed my bumper and valence, I stopped at 121... lol

Your tranny thanks you....lol
oh i was saying you could run a 14.2 with stock turbo.
The fastest recorded time for a LG5 with a stock T25 is 14.4

Kuntzie ran low 14's on the stock turbo. I *think* he clicked off a few 14.0's@100mph. There is at least one other person that ran 13's(a long time ago) with a stock turbo.
IDK. He swapped to that 2871R fairly soon after buying the car off of Skalor.
i did run tonnes of 14.2s on the stock turbo, and had a couple of 14.08-09 runsa aswell
the 14.2 were easy but when i ran the 14.0 i was lacking some interior.
also IIRC my trap was always around 102
I found a post from 2006 on the w-body board where Jeff posted the following stock turbo times.
14.6 @ 100mph & 14.4@97mph the same night(the first time he ran the car).
2nd time he ran the car at the track:
Reaction .5279
60 FT 2.0301
330 FT 6.1412
1/8 ET 9.3291
1/8 MPH 76.94
1/4 ET 14.3521
1/4 MPH 100.67
Nearly 101mph traps = that car was capable of 13's on the stock turbo and more tuning could have made it even faster....
I can't find the other posts, but I seem to remember Jeff posting a 14.0 stock turbo time as well....
EDIT: I didn't even see your post until I made this one Jeff. :laugh:
I'm impressive but I'm sure jeff knows a bit more about tuning than the average joe on this forum.........kind of an unfair sample if you ask me.....one guy with one car......from what I see most people with a stock turbo at 10-12 psi are in the high 14's..........but you guys tell me I only know what I see on your list......
Ken
well then, my bad.
