    i smell what your stepping in.but where are you after the 1/4where are you passed 100mph? 9k and 300hp wont do it. and we dont have the same gearing let me guess your running b16 type r tranny im rocking a built cable a1 tranny 4.2 final longest honda made that im aware of

    No skill in that.. Set the car up, With 300hp and a good suspension I bet you'd run faster than a 12.... [/QUOTE]

    RPMS have absolutely no bearing on how much "top end" a car has and you are making yourself out to look like a complete idiot (not that you haven't already)

    Power is power, whether it's made at 500 RPM or 9000 RPM, it's not going to change how hard a car pulls on "top end"

    I agree power is power but rpm does play a role on top end. QUOTE]it's not going to change how hard a car pulls on "top end" care to explain this me in layman terms since im idiot??because at 6000rpm im 3oohp and at 7000rpms im 450hp if i shift every time at 6k instead of 7k ill lose 150 hp and losing that i dont think it would pull as hard would it. furthermore i never said rpm=topend it would be GEARING+POWER+=TOPEND

    I think your turbo is a little too big for your set up if it's taking you that long to reach full power...
    Back to being stock and slow
