[aaron7]

This thing is badass! I've never heard of one!! Was it really good for 13.7 in the quarter?

that thing has seen much better days

[80toy]

the turbo trucks were only running like 145 hp, so no, they can't run a 13.7 quarter.

[aaron7]

Aww...

what was the power of the stock 22RE?

Did the turbo 22RE come with better internals?

[rctoyota]

yeah 13.7 quarter is bull

the turbo was a little better then the 22r-e but not that good

internals are exactly the same except the pistons, and combustion chamber design

[aaron7]

So is there possibility for more power on the stock internals?

What PSI does it run stock?

[80toy]

it runs a ct-20 turbo at low psi, 5.5 to 6 psi.

"The 22RTE Turbo engine was based on the later model 22RE (short block /tall head). This is a similar but entirely different block and head. The block was drilled with different oil passages to accommodate the Turbo oil requirements. The cylinder head's combustion chamber had a different shape. The piston was dished. Advertised horsepower was 145. The factory set the boost at 5.5-6 pounds, but completely stock internals survived boosts of up to 17-22 pounds, with proper fuel injection modifications. This is a testimony to the bulletproof bottom end design. Nitro / Methanol fueled dragsters, producing in excess of 1100 HP- used the original (modified) crankshafts and TOYSPORT pistons!"

[rctoyota]

yeah right
17 to 22 psi on stock internals

yeah the haed gasket wont blow.... duh

you need a complete metal head gasket and a stand alone fuel managment system to provide enough fuel, the fuel system that came with them are a very simple design to measure flow, when you add boost they are very limited

other then that you might be able to run 12 psi max.............. safetly

but thats pushing on stock internals

my 88 22RE is 90 horse


but then it only weighs 2720 with me in it

so 145 hp would be real nice with the 3.89 axle it has

the 190 horse L69 305 camaros and firebirds 82 and up were mid 3k weight and were pretty damn fast if axle ratio was good enough,

and a healthy 145 or 160 horse 305 with nice axle ratio is pretty fun too, evne in the heavier vehicles, you would be surprised


so i mean..


good luck

more like 13.7 in the 1/8th mile...
