Hello everyone.

Just curious if anyone could chime in on what my 0-60 with a perfect launch would be.

I have a 07 Type S 6spd with 68k. I am the 2nd owner.

Recent and only additions:
-Pilot Super Sports
-AEM
-ATLP Jpipe-R V2 w/third cat delete
-ATLP V2 Quad Resonated

I have slightly launched this car, twice, since the above and I am pretty sure that if I launch it correctly I shouldn't have a problem being 5.1ish, (after tons of reading I've read from 5.1 to 5.7 from factory. I think some don't realize that these cars did sometimes come from factory with HPTs, Summer only tires. I believe this is when they starting pushing that 5.4 ish time.) Before the above I def felt like I was mid 5s. Way back, I had a 1991 Ford Taurus SHO 5spd. Those were 6.2 to 6.6 and I had it modified enough to do a 5.9 to 60. However, y SHO did not get to 60 anywhere near what my Type S does, or seems. I know I am feeling the torque more in the Type S but when I go and just after 2nd gear shift she is 60+

Am I way over my head or might I be thinking correctly with the possible 5.1ish time?

Thanks =)

you are way over your head for 5.1 seconds...
the car is FWD..that is the limiting factor. you will never get the car faster because of how much abuse the front end takes...

sure, you can rev that mothefucker up to about 4-5k during launch to start off in vtec, but holy fucking christ you're abusing and straining the ever living shit out of the car..
broken axles, broken LSD, broken tranny mounts

That is why I said I slightly launched it and only twice =) Seems as if that 5.3 - 5.4 ish is the max for fwd in real world?

What is your guess then? I didn't ask what could break.

naw, your breaks should be fine.

I don't understand??

I have a car that weighs 3350lbs and puts out 350hp (at the crank), and it hits 5 seconds even, 0-60. The car is 6MT equipped.

Your car weighs ~300lbs more and puts out 286hp (at the crank). With your mods, I would guess you're putting out 300-305hp (at the crank).

If I'm just hitting 5 seconds, I don't see how you could be anywhere near that with 300lbs more and 45-50hp less. Plus, I'm RWD and you're FWD. I'd say you're closer to 5.5 seconds. For the record, at stock TL-S never hit 5.1s.

Manual transmission3559 lb (1614 kg)
About 200lbs heavier.

I also lost weight with the installed exhaust system.

Ok, so at this point. 5.4/5.5 is def realistic with ONLY a perfect launch?

Just curious everyone, not trying to start anything. Seems everyone is kind of being harsh?

I think I misunderstood the question.
Curious, what is your goal?

Mattman1

If I am correct, you are curious to know your 0-60 time with your mods? right?

If you are pushing 300 at the crank and your vehicle weighing roughly 3500 pounds, your 0-60 time would be around 5.6 (power to weight ratio).

also, at the track...no one has put down a quicker 60ft than 2.5 seconds
which is telling.

you can rev it ALL you want or to whatever you want...but above 5000, you're going to break things...
wheel hop is a motherfucker and will sap power and may cause issues with your LSD, hint...it can break with wheel hop

TacoBello

I didn't know an LSD could break. I've never heard/seen it before. Crazy.

mechanical LSDs can have mechanical failures.
the gear wont spin if it's missing or has broken teeth...

TacoBello

I know that, but there are plenty of 600+hp cars with mechanical LSDs and they aren't exploding.

but do they have justin driving them?

Agreed, but as with pretty much everything else in life, not all LSDs are created equal. Said another way, an LSD built for a 300HP engine will not last very long when mated to a 600HP engine.

I had plenty of time slips showing 60 ft's in the 2.20's with the TL. 2.50 is utterly horrible. Think I had a best of 2.19.

OP, for reference, my best times were 13.7-13.8 @ 103-104 in the quarter, which translates to roughly low 5's 0-60 on a *decent for FWD* 60' (say low 2.20's) I could see your car running 14 flat, which would probably equate to ~ 5.5 0-60.

The integra Type R's LSD was built for a 200hp engine. I had it in my 500hp integra and it lasted 2 years of racing every weekend. It is still running perfectly fine. There are many 600hp Hondas running factory LSD's without any issues. Wheel hop is what kills honda LSD's.

bro, wheel hop will fuck up LSD's and tranny mounts!!

wilspainar

Yes wheel hop will break parts, but I was commenting on that 600hp won't.

oh, i wasnt even responding to you! or even read your post! lol
i was just nudging taco, because wheel hop kills LSD's!

wilspainar

Oh my fault lol, I just noticed.

my best 60 ft at track on street tires is a 2.02 that's 6 speed supercharged. ran a 8.48 @92mph with slipping clutch. it usually cuts 2.15's - 2.30's.
