Well, the first test and tune at my local track is coming up on Wednesday and since my BP is nowhere close to going in yet, I'm just wondering roughly what I can expect out of this old motor. This engine has close to 380,000kms on it so I know it's not going to be that great. If I can almost break into the 16s with a stock B6 with about 350,000kms, I'm expecting low 16s, maybe high even 15s. Anyway, let me know what you guys think.

Anyone run a B8 down the 1/4?

most people have trouble running 15's with a BP, so i'd say high 16's if you know how to launchEscort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI

Well, today was a crappy day for racing, rained off and on 3 times and it was pretty cool with a head wind of about 20 mph. My best run was 16.453 @ 82.07mph with a .609 reaction time on some old 14s. If the weather was a little better, I probably could have pulled off a 16.2 or so, but I'll have the BP ready to go by next month's set and see what I can do then.1993 Mazda 323 - BP conversion, Front cross drilled rotors, Front and rear strut braces, Filled motor mounts, Mx3 seats, BPT conversion in progress SOLD

I'm surprised that crazycanadian hasn't chimed in. I know he ran his B6 for a while. I wonder what he did with that B6 turbo-conversion he got from me?
The old stock B6 ran 19.1's when it was auto... 17.7's after a 5 speed conversion then 15.4 with a pretty much stock B6T conversion and stock boost..

My best 60 ft time was 2.458 and they were all between that and 2.65. Once I get some better tires and we actually get some rubber on the track it'll get better, 175/65/14s are def not good for racing as you could hear on the video.1993 Mazda 323 - BP conversion, Front cross drilled rotors, Front and rear strut braces, Filled motor mounts, Mx3 seats, BPT conversion in progress SOLD

I pulled a few runs out today and picked up on my best with a 16.394@83.33mph with the B8 since I'm waiting for a few parts for the BP.1993 Mazda 323 - BP conversion, Front cross drilled rotors, Front and rear strut braces, Filled motor mounts, Mx3 seats, BPT conversion in progress SOLD
