team ab drag race and street builds
this should be a fun thread for those who want to join in. As many of you know last year I started off strong with a nice dyne session hitting 527hp 425tq db numbers. I later broke the driveshaft and rear diff out at pg1. during an oil change I realized the engine had been eating itself up. The block and crank had some pretty good wear on it so I picked up a 2.4 block and crank. and self built the engine. The engine was fantastic but I tech failed because of no battery shut off on outside of the car. so after 525 miles on the engine we start this.. engine pulled and sold

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
so out with the 2.4 and on to the 2.0 i picked up a pretty raged looking 2.0 block with the intention of building it up until I realized the same built I was going to do has already been done and was ready for me to pick up. Thanks to a member here I picked up a 6bolt 2.0 stock crank, manley turbo tuff I beams, wiseco e85 hd2 pistons, acl race bearings, kiggly main brace, all new and fresh. 6 bolt head with super tech ss nitrated valves, kiggly hp beehives, kiggly hla, mitsu 4 layer head gasket, l19 head studs all ready to rock besides cams. I also picked up a jmf drag mani.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
Looks like boomdeeze's old 2.0L.
Team? You ever make any passes with the old car? What does your red 2G look like?
Good like this year.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
it is his old 2.0 and yes team AB has been going for years now just a few of us dsm guys.
My car looks like a red 2gb with carbon hood.
yes I made a pass at pg1 last year went 13.25@125 with a 2.? 60ft. 2nd pass was the broke at pg. andre went 12.4?@115 hta16g 18psi exhaust leak and 02 leak, boost was shuttering the entire time with spool up at 4 grand. Jesssie hasn't had a chance to run yet though.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
Looks like some nice setups! I know a few bikes that would mess around on the street this summer if you want to try those cars out.
White 2g looks sweet, but where does he put his spare tire?

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
Wow you guys made quite an upgrade this year.
That is sick, you might want to check the safety rules for running E85 and running sub 10.0

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
Celica that's sounds like fun for sure. And yes the wiked white 2g is literally a dream car. Lol spare tire will be on the trailer. His goal now is getting rid of 10lbs of wiring.
Aaron we would appreciate any knowledge you can bring to this thread about things like that for sure.
Here are some pics of the pg trip mine is the red 2gb carbon hood

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
Here's one up for debate. What cams should I run in this settup? I have a 3582 and will most likely end up with a hta 3586 or gtx wheel. So being that I can flow 62.5 lbs/min now and may be able to flow 75. I feel like I am inbetween cams. I am pretty set on kelfords or gsc cams, but what one will better suit me? I will be reving in the 9ish area.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
I'd run a 280 or GSC S3, but to be honest I haven't seen any testing between the 2 to say that the difference is worth the worry about power.
Both are quality so whatever you are more comfortable with/get a better price on.
Reck, I'm at work but I have the 2014 NHRA rulebook downloaded, I will post it up here for others when I get a chance.
With those size turbos you guys will need it.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
lol thanks for the nice words of optimism. I talked to kevin kiggly today about it and he recommends going with a kelford 280 or 288. The only thing he was unsure about was my punishment manifold. He is using kelfords this year btw and he is also going to be running a 2.0 fwiw. So anyways back on topic I got to thinking devin shultz is running the same manifold as me so I think I will try and get him on the phone for a bit to see if he has tried any combo cams like the 288 276 etc. we all know the intake can handle a large cam it's my exhaust that could be in question.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
You can't go wrong with either cam. I run gsc s3, it works for me. I know kiggly was reving that 2.3 to the moon, 2.0 would make more sense for him.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
mark could you dive into the intake mani/exhaust mani/turbo setup on the s3 with spool and rpm range please yes kiggly is awesome he was telling my about the cam centerlines throughout his rpm range with that mivec head and it's plain awesome. at some points it's equivalent to 2 teeth off haha. talking about 89deg to 130-135deg. He too was talking about the cam test that spoolin dub has mentioned and said he didn't see any reason at least for me to even consider a 272 with the 280 being 200ish on spool and big hp up top. good info I thought i'd share.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
if anyone has input on trans at this point I am open to hear discussion on that. So far my peak interest is a jacks 2.2hd. when I called sheep the guy said not unless I already had a one of theirs, he also said use john or tim and not jack, competition or? either way we are all going manual trans so yes we already know we are doomed just looking for anything that may help...

Yeah, Shep doesn't do DSM trannies anymore unless he knows you, or you send a blank check.

Re: team ab drag race and street builds
thanks nick and yeah he is completely against an auto at this point, as for me I know I should go auto, but i'm most likely going manual…I honestly don't want to be the guy who turns down good advise but we are kinda set on not going auto yet.
