tiagos 3.4 ran somewhere around 13.4 or so.

shanes 3.8 ran i think high 12s

most will run 12-13 second range with the right setup

[vanbibber]

tiago makes the fff kits.


i believe shane did his own.

[tWiStEdBird]

Indeed he did. Shanes kit was the best to day IMO. Front sweeping headers are the way to go, faster spool. I still want to see what tiagos kit can do. I chose the belt driven route.

yeah i had an old vid of shanes car and one of tiagos. you could deffinatly tell shanes spooled faster than tiagos.

thats becuase shane was using a smaller turbo taigo had a t-66 on his 3.4 lol

yes the fwd sweep do help but the 3.4 had more turbo to spool with less exuast gases
