    I want to see that time slip justin. I just don't believe that an m50 can pull that kind of trap speed unless its been heavily lightened or you have something else under your hood.

    Is the something your not mentioning in your mods, thats incredibly good for an m50! How much power are you putting down?
    My mods intake w/ heat sheild, mark d sylvia chip, 2.5 inch exhaust with ebay headers, turner motorsport pulleys. That is it. Me and a few local people will be having a dyno day shortly to see what type of power we have. Few people just need to finish up projects.

    Launching the car around 2500-2800. Very little slipping of the clutch. I am running some junk tires, I can get the name if you want, but I just got them from the junkyard for drifting. Springs are just Eibach pro kit springs with bilstien shocks.

    I am not getting crap for traction and have horrible wheel hop through 3rd from the junk subframe bushings. My 60 ft times were 2.1-2.3. If the were 2.0 or better that would be decent.

    Added my chip and it helped me break 13's finally. Still need to replace my subframe bushings.

    I ran an 18.1 because I was too busy bumble fucking with my Brittney Spears CD. I still managed to hawk down the CRX driving queer bait in the next lane.

    I think my 60' was like 4.5 seconds. Car has M50 powwwaa.

It has lifted the wheels a few times here and there, it squats HARD.
    damn that means my old g60/15 arent gonna fit the 26x8

    I'd like to see what I could do with a 3.2 also :) Hopefully I'll be able to go FI this year, then I should pull some good times.

The truth always hurts a bit; when people go from their imaginary race times (dude I totally just smoked a viper light to light!) and then go to an actual track they don't like what they get because the clock doesn't lie.
    I hear what you're saying. But i think a lot of guys that post times for their swaps are guys that have no track experience. Only going because they want to see what their swap car can do. Which will be me when I'm done. Unless I take my bike to the track in the spring just for some fun.

    my s50 was low mileage, but i rebuilt it and when i took it to the drags, i expected low 14 to 14.0, best run was a 14.5. with my m20 my best time was a 15.9 i believe, so i was kinda happy, but at the same time depressed that $8kish got me only 1.5sec faster.
    Ah fuck. I'm hoping it's just because of traction..

    yeah those are really good times for the m50nv... makes me hopeful that i really have a high 12 sec car if i could apply power to ground

    I would have to guess that most of these low 1/4 tires are more due to lack of overall traction than lack of power.
    They are good times. Sounds like a good driver. I'd like to see what he could do with a 3.2 liter...

    what size slicks are you running bmwsob?
